One down, one to go. Next, the Clintons.
Half hispanic, good lookin and holding the last name Bush. Someday this young man will run for Texas governor...count on it.
We are still going to have to knock down their younger generation as they will want to seek office too.
I chuckled for over a hour last night without stopping. We are finally out of the Bushes!
Deeply saddened is P, who now has to go back to work as Land Commish and who likely just saw his own presidential aspirations dashed.
“It means those writers and organizations and publications and individuals who subscribed to a New World Order and Big Government Republicanism are also in steep decline. “
We can only hope.
It’s not Bushism...they are just the most visible practitioners of RINOism.
The Congress and ostensibly GOP-friendly media are still chock full of RINOs as their daily, even hourly unhinged anti-Trump rants confirm.
One of those neocon periodicals recently called Trumpism a “virus” for questioning the Iraq War. Donald Trump should not have said that President George Bush “lied” but that is besides the point. The need for a debate about the war has remained unspoken out of simple party loyalty. John Kennedy once said sometimes party loyalty demanded too much. The Republican Party is overdue in having this debate.
I couldn’t agree with this more, and every time there’s a dust-up among Republicans over the war, and a bunch of Republicans start digging in their heels saying they’d do it all over again, I facepalm so hard, and worry about the general election.
Hopefully we can all move past that now that Trump managed to win SC.
I can’t tell you how happy and relieved I am that Jeb Bush has dropped out.
TS, Jeb. And that stands for something besides tough s***.
Putting Bush out of his misery was “an act of love”.
Back in 1976-1977, when I was active in the Young Americans for Freedom, I did a lot of work with Craig Shirley when he ran the YAF office on Wilshire Blvd. in Los Angeles.
Stay out of the Bush.
The Bush campaign should become a standard case study in campaign school of what not to do. I am not sure I have ever seen a major campaign, with such obvious assets across the board, so completely and cluelessly misread the dynamics of an election.
Every word out of Bush/s mouth was mind-bogglingly stupid. It was like his mind was trolling the 90/s for campaign slogans.
IMHO, after all was said and done...his act of love inanity, and the rest....Jebbie/s obsession w/ highlighting his (gag) terrific years as FLA governor proved to be the death knell for his ambitions.
==========================================
Dragging out GWB to stump for Jeb was a mistake of enormous magnitude. It dredged up all the debacles of the Iraq invasion ...including GWB standing on the ship ignorantly declaring mission accomplished....as the US was forced to sink trillions into Mideast dirtholes...even to this day b/c of his incompetence.
==========================================
The GOPe keeps wondering how a NYC real estate mogul beat a good, honest fellow like ole Jeb. Right about now, a secret RNC meeting is being held in a country club grill room. The GOPe can/t figure out who can beat that big mouthed clown from Manhattan, who is about to blaze a trail of destruction over their party not seen since Sherman and his army of blue bellies arrived in Georgia.
With their last dying gasp, establishment types are grabbing onto one last hope: that GOPe Party rules will make it hard for Trump to clinch the nom.
Trump is winning by pulling 30-40 percent of states' votes, making party-designated winner-take-all- thresholds out of reach. Party rules make Trump/s securing the nom that much more difficult: (1) formally: winning a majority of delegates, or, (2) informally: broad support being so obvious it stifles competition.
Piffle. All of the GOPe rules mean nothing, nada, zippo. The fact is Donald Trump/s towering wins mean that he now OWNS the Republican Party. Anything the GOPe did is DOA....including rules that were meant to cement the establishment candidates in power.
THE BEST PART is GOPe party leaders are scared to death of Trump/s candidacy. Wait til they find out Trump is making his own rules.
Last night Van Jones (Van Jones!) was criticising Trump for not recognizing the class and dignity of Jeb Bush and all his many years of selfless public service. I have to laugh, these political types like to talk like their nakedly aggressive clutching at personal power is some sort of holy work they do at the expense of their own best interests. Yet they all come out of it rich as can be and can’t wait to run some more. And in the case of the Bush’s, an entire family which feels it is entitled to power, the thing the founders were most repelled by.
I've favored a Constitutional amendment that says, basically, if you are elected to office, none of your family members to the 4th. degree of consanguity, by blood or marriage, can serve in any office, elected or appointed. We've got over 300 million people in this country, after all, for crying out loud...
I think the author is entirely too kind to these NWO, ROP, Bohemian Grove squirrels, but the essay is an excellent summary overview.
Actually, there’s a seedling that’s about to take root....Rubio. He’s a new generation of the Bush establishment, much more dangerous, IMO.
