Jeb Bush is Prepared to Restore American Leadership (Barf)
Townhall.com ^ | January 9, 2016 | David Shedd

These are perilous times. Americans are scared; concerned about the direction our country is headed, and the dangers we face. We need a leader who has the experience and vision to create a freer, safer, and stronger America - and that leader is Governor Jeb Bush.

The collapse of hard-won order and stability in the Middle East has unleashed sectarian conflict and the growing threat of radical Islamic terrorism. Iran's bid for regional hegemony, support for terrorism, and pursuit of a nuclear weapons capability has fueled regional tensions and poses a growing threat to America's interests and those of our closest allies and partners in the region.

Our traditional alliances have been eroded in recent years by the disengagement of the Obama Administration and growing concerns with the absence of American leadership in the world.. Increasingly, and especially after the failure to enforce America's red line against Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad's use of chemical weapons, our allies do not trust us and adversaries do not fear us. Growing cyber threats go unanswered by the Administration.

The essential and longstanding US-Israel relationship is now badly frayed. The Trans-Atlantic alliance is strained by internal tensions and weakened by declining defense budgets that have not kept pace with rising and diverse threats. NATO has been further stressed by Russian aggression in Europe, most recently with the invasion and occupation of Ukraine, as well as by Putin's military adventurism in Syria. Our European allies face a massive refugee crisis emanating from unaddressed conflict in the Middle East and North Africa along with a pandemic like growth of terrorist threats in the Middle East and North Africa. Our allies in the Asia-Pacific region wonder if America will stand with them in the face of a menacing China.

We need a seasoned leader in the White House, one who can unite our country, rebuild our defenses and intelligence capabilities, repair our alliances, and provide the decisive leadership our nation and world so desperately need.

That's why Governor Jeb Bush's should be the next President of the United States.

As a successful two-term Governor of Florida, Governor Bush has the executive experience required to lead our nation. He is resolute. He is measured, confident, and steady under pressure.

He is focused on uniting our country, addressing its problems, and embracing its promise and opportunity. He believes, as Ronald Reagan did, that America should be the master of its destiny, not a victim of fate.

Governor Bush will provide the American leadership needed not just to address looming challenges of today, but to help the United States take advantage of opportunities - such as the energy revolution - that will preserve and enhance our standing in the world in the long run.

Governor Bush was the first candidate to present a detailed strategy to combat ISIS and restore stability to the Middle East.

He also understands that we must not lose sight of our values, and that the defense of our security must not come at the expense of the free and open society that is the foundation of America's unprecedented peace, prosperity, and strength.

Governor Bush knows the first task of the Commander in Chief is to keep America safe, and he is committed to rebuilding our military and intelligence capabilities, which have suffered under President Obama's defense and intelligence budget cuts and the devastating application of sequestration.

Jeb Bush is prepared to restore American leadership in the world.

Recall how they forced the Mittwit down our throats?
How much you want to bet they’ll try to fraudulently force Heb! or Rubio down our throats in a similar delegate scheme?

If Jeb Bush knows anything about leadership, it must be because he read Donald Trump’s book.

!Yeb! wants to turn our country into North Mexico.

I kind of liked the rule of law and America being for Americans and Americans being for America.
I don’t know if that can be recovered. But we should try.

Fraudulently Documented Foreigners who broke into our country should not be rewared for that. We did that in 1986 and it got us 10 times the number of illegal aliens.
We either elect somebody who will stop the illegal alien inundation or we will lose our country, if we haven’t already.

obviously you haven’t watched Jeb’s anti Rubio ad and don’t know what you are talking about.

Jethro Busch is a fine bureaucratic administrator for the administrative state.

[ Jeb*s lucky pocket turtle.]

He should be using a Tortoises in his pocket, turtles live in the water or is he saying they are the same thing?

Turtles don’t believe in slow and steady wins the race.

The way Yeb! is so certain that Trump will not be nominated has me thinking the same thing.
They have been manipulating the nomination for years and have it down to a science.
This time Trump has completely changed the game.
If he does as well in real voting as he is in the polls, it will be hard to make any other outcome look legitmate. Not they they care, they ran McAmnesty and Romneycare against Obama.

Plus, a tortoise or turtle usually win races against other tortoises or turtles. But, a toy turtle or tortoise can’t move under its own power, so it doesn’t win any races. So, a toy turtle is very symbolic of the Bush campaign, it can’t move under its own power.

Someone in this country is STILL dumb enough to try and push that jack-ass Bush on us? Between that the some screwy NH poll that shows Jeb skyrocketing to second place, it seems like the media had given up trying to pump up Cruz, and has gone back to square one.

Let me guess, Jeb gave the Author his super secret Guacamole Recipe, right? I’ll bet he even threw in the official JEB! $90 Guacamole Bowl.

BTW - Does anyone reading this even know ONE PERSON that wants to Vote for Bush? Serious question.

No. I know of no one who is supporting Yeb, or willing to admit it.

And that's the only thing I need is *this*. I don't need this or this. Just this pocket turtle... And this paddle game. - The pocket turtle and the paddle game and that's all I need... And this open border. - The pocket turtle, the paddle game, and the open border, and that's all I need... And these anchor babies. - The pocket turtle, and these anchor babies, and the open border, and the paddle ball... And this lamp. - The pocket turtle, this paddle game, and the open border, and the lamp, and that's all *I* need. And that's *all* I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one... I need this. - The paddle game and the common core, and the open border, and the anchor babies for sure. Well what are you looking at? What do you think I'm some kind of a jerk or something! - And this. That's all I need.

All I can think of when I hear Bush claiming “this or that”, I see the photo (posted by Trump) of Jebbie picking his nose.

Does anyone really see him as a “leader”? Pathetic.

(Wish I could post that photo)

Just another grifter all too willing to manage the decline of this once great nation.

Uh, they played games with the delegates to force Mitt as our nominee in 2012.
I’m saying the RNC/GOP will do it again to either force a Heb! or a Rubio nomination.
