Jeb Bush joins Republicans calling on Moore to step down
The Hill ^ | 11/13/2017 | Brett Samuels

Jeb Bush on Monday joined growing Republicans calls for Alabama GOP Senate candidate Roy Moore to step down after Moore allegedly had a sexual encounter with a minor.

“This is not a question of innocence or guilt like in a criminal proceeding, this is a question of what’s right and what’s wrong. Acknowledging that you’re dating teenagers when you’re 32 years old as assistant state attorney is wrong. It’s just plain wrong,” the former Republican presidential candidate and Florida governor said during an interview on CNBC.

“We need to stand for basic principles, and decency has to be one of those,” he continued. “In the really poisonous political environment we have right now, one of the rules I think has to apply is that when you attack somebody on the other party, and the other team, for doing something wrong, when it happens on your team you have an obligation, I think, to speak out as well.”

Was that a real cover, or a parody?

Mr. Jeb (Sh!te for brains) Bush should keep his liberal A$$ mouth shut. No one gives a $hite what he says anyway and the same goes for his @$$ hole brother.

Why is anything Jeb Bush says of interest to anyone?

I don’t know of any job or position he holds.

Jeb Bush murdered Terri Schiavo.

And he’s a drug dealer, partnered with Bill Clinton. Profiteered off Obamacare. No Borders One-Worlder.

I never put much trust in the Fitzgerald allegations, but they do explain why the hapless GHWB didn’t try too hard to defeat Mr. Bill.

Jebbie Bush’s boy is the future of the TX GOP, we are often told.

Jeb Bush? Name sounds vaguely familiar. Doesn’t he sell guacamole bowls on QVC?

I guess I missed where Judge Moore acknowledged that he had done as accused

18 and 19 are selectively considered to be teenagers. The rest of the time they are adults. Sigh.

Does Yebby have anything to say about his old man’s constant groping of women over the years (not just recently)? Put your own family in order, Yeb.
