[Jeb] Bush says Clinton failed as secretary of state
Associated Press ^ | Jun 16, 2015 6:32 PM EDT | Jill Colvin

Newly declared Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush is fast out of the gate when it comes to criticizing Hillary Rodham Clinton, the Democratic front-runner.

In his New Hampshire debut as an official candidate, Bush commended Clinton as tough and smart Tuesday, but labeled her record as secretary of state “a complete failure” and said she didn’t accomplish much as a New York senator before that.

As a presidential candidate, Clinton has run a cloistered operation with limited opportunities to face questions from the press, he said. “It’s ridiculous.” …

Didn’t he give her an award for something? Have they already talked and agreed that they have to say bad things about each other to fool the masses?
I turned on FOX for the first time many weeks and there wwas Hannity interviewing Jeb. That’s that.

It’s true. She really did fail as Secretary of State.

You have an excellent memory. Why yes, in fact Jeb gave her The Liberty Medal for 2013. Lifetime of dedication to (brace for it) her country. Not to mention her pocketbook.

I don’t think she even did anything that would qualify her as failing. Failed to do nothing?

That sounds like a ringing endorsement for her from Jeb. Thats good enough for me.

I wonder how much they paid her to show up for her award...

Are they that out of touch with conservatives. I used to get mad when FReepers based FOX. I was wrong. Wont watch ever again.
Might have kept watching Red Eye if they kept Bill Schultz and Greg didn’t leave to do that AWFUL Sunday night show.

Jeb Bush: Hillary is tough, and smart, and a complete failure!

Is he trying to pander to everybody, or alienate everybody?

I watched Greg's first episode, which was just OK. I take it the subsequent episodes were less than stellar? Should I not even bother?

Get used to it Hillary.

With 20 candidates in the Republican field, you’re gonna get criticised by a lot of people, many times, in public, over the next 16 months.

Personally, I think the real fun will come when Obama’s media-free-ride comes to an end and the candidates turn their guns on him - especially Trump, who I’m sure will have some choice comments to make about Obama’s endless vacations, incompetence, choice of idiots in his Administration, sellout deals, and criticism of entrepreneurs.

You laugh, but he is going to be more of a force than most on FR think. So is Trump, but while Jeb will be the intellectual and experienced governor, Trump will be John Wayne in a $4000 suit.

I wanted to support him but forget about it. I guess that’s how bad the first one was. What were they thinking?

Get an studio audience QUICK and a sidekick. If they were smart, they’d pay Bill good money to come back.

He was great as the liberal gay foil for Greg to pick on.

No, unfortunately i Know hoe much of a force he is going to be. The masses know his name, the powers that be want him to win. The family connections, the money...
That’s why we need to get behind ONE conservative earlier rather than later.

Then why did he give her a medal last year?

If the GOP nominates this turkey, they deserve the resounding defeat they will get.

IIRC, it was her standard fee, $200,000.

So Jeb says “she’s smart and tough, but she’s a failure.” It seems to me that he doesn’t know $hit from Shinola!
