Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush defended the term anchor babies Monday during a visit to McAllen, saying the comment wouldnt hurt him with Hispanic voters.
Bush stopped at Palenque Grill on Monday after a fundraiser at the McAllen Country Club and meeting with local leaders to speak about immigration and border security.
Action 4 News reporter Analise Ortiz asked Bush about using the derogatory term anchor babies during an interview with talk show host Bill Bennett on Aug. 19.
What I was talking about is the specific case of fraud being committed, where theres organized efforts, Bush said. And, frankly, its more related to Asian people coming into our country, having children and, in organized efforts, taking advantage of this noble concept, which is birthright citizenship.

Thatta boy, Jeb! Rile up the Asians against the Republican Party.
And this “them more than you” comment is laughably stupid.

He should take some speech lessons from his brother. On second thought......
And Jeb is the mature adult in the room? LOL.
Well frankly Jeb, you’re full of shit.
If it ends up as Biden v. ¿Jeb? 2016, can we just admit that this thing has reached brain death?
I think that can only happen if Hillary drops out.
If there is an actual Dem primary shootout, Bush will not be able to get enough Op Chaos Dems to vote him to the R nomination.
A case of Lockjaw would score a 10 point advantage...
The GOP is so stupid they are willing to lose chasing after 10% more of 13% of the total vote by advocating abandoning the rule of law and surrendering the country.
Stupid Party, INDEED!
G.W’s dumber brother 2016 isn’t flying anywhere except for a fragment of the MSM.
Yeah putz, that makes it ALL better now, don’t it?
I’d say Jebito is an effing idiot but I don’t know how to say that in Spanish so he could understand it.
Call them teritorrial drops.
EBT Card babies.
He's a freaking joke. That reporters are still following him around says a lot about the reporters.
Why do I keep thinking of Fredo? "It ain't the way I wanted it! I can handle things! I'm smart! Not like everybody says... like dumb... I'm smart and I want respect!"
Apparently it’s okay to say something that liberals pretend is racist, if it’s directed against Asians instead of Hispanics. I despise liberals, especially their double-standards on the rare occasions when they pretend to have standards at all.
Lol, priceless.
Really?
I think all anchor babies should matter equally, regardless of race or national origin.
I have a dream that a baby’s citizenship will be judged not on the color of his or her skin, but upon the citizenship status of his or her parents.
