Jeb Bush continued Monday to dismiss criticism for using the term "anchor babies," saying that it is "ludicrous" that he is being accused of using a term that insults immigrants.
"Nothing about what I've said should be viewed as derogatory towards immigrants at all," the GOP presidential candidate said after meeting with local officials near the U.S.-Mexico border in McAllen, TX. "This is all how politics plays. And by the way, I think we need to take a step back and chill out a little bit as it relates to the political correctness that somehow you have to be scolded every time you say something."
Bush said that he used the term "anchor babies" specifically to refer to fraud in a "specific targeted kind of case" involving mothers who travel to the United States only to win citizenship for their unborn children.
"Frankly it's more Asian people," he added.

Jeb has come out swinging. I predict he’s going to say some really stupid things this week. That black hand of his better cover his mouth.

So you pick on the “model minority” when wading into racial issues?
Go home Jeb, go home.

No kidding. And how exactly is the practice "fraud?" The government recognizes everybody born on US soil as a natual born US citizen, other than children of diplomats and invading armies, and there are no invading armies.
