Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush returned Thursday to his oft-used assertion that Donald Trump "is not a serious man," suggesting that Trump's plan to deport 11 million undocumented immigrants would be a financial and logistical boondoggle and ignoring the GOP frontrunner's even more controversial plan to bar all foreign Muslims from entering the United States.
Speaking at a town hall meeting, the former Florida governor, who earlier this week tweeted that Trump was "unhinged," did not address the topic that has caused an outcry and dominated the news cycle all week.
Instead, he chided Trump for suggesting he would deport all the country's undocumented immigrants. The idea, Bush said, "sounds great." But, he added, "the cost of it would be extraordinary."
"That's not a serious proposal. A conservative proposal doesn't cost hundreds of billions of dollars."
Bush called for a series of steps through which the nation's undocumented immigrants could eventually earn legal status, but not citizenship. These undocumented immigrants should pay fines, learn English, and not receive federal benefits, among other stipulations, Bush said. He also said that immigration should be a tool for economic growth, adding, "We should pick who comes to this country."

So says the guy with 3 percent of the vote. Casey Anthony and OJ Simpson could beat him
Why is this not in Breaking News?
Jesus H. Christ.
Jeb looks like Mrs Beasly, to doll from Family Affairs.
I guess the way Jeb sees it, you’re not “a serious man” until you’ve murdered a young woman in a nursing home.
Or given drivers licenses to Mohammed Atta and the other 9/11 terrorists as governor of Florida.
Say it again Yeb, this time in Spanish.
So I guess his brother invasion of Iraq was not a "conservative proposal".
It's Yeb's! Turn!

Thanks for posting this. Do you have a link? The digital artifacts make the copy very hard to read.
The Bushes have been a crime family for at least four generations. Yeb’s failure to launch is the proof that the Republican rank-and-file have caught on.
Between the two I say Trump is far more the serious man.
A real estate billionaire, had a hit TV series that was quite profitable, and now, with no experience at being a “politician” he is at the top of the heap and driving the debate in a POTUS run in which he has had to take on the GOPe, the MSM, and the rats.
I have never seen anyone like this. Absolutely amazing.
Hmmm.
Neither is anyone running for President thinking they have a chance when polling 30+ points behind.
All I have is the New York Post....and it’s been long enough I don’t even know if it’s still posted...if you google her name, you’ll come up with a lot more....
Bush is a serious man? I would never have suspected,
This from the Bush who rode the short bus. :-)
That's been such a winning issue for !Yeb. I'm glad he's hitting this hard again.
Didn’t Jeb say, not too long, “I could be doing something else, instead of this!”?
That demonstrates HIS not being serious!!!
