AUSTIN, Texas — Republican George P. Bush, the only member of the Bush dynasty still in public office, condemned Thursday recurring episodes of what he described as racist or hateful rhetoric within the Texas GOP, and ripped what he called false accusations fanned by his Hispanic heritage.

Bush, Texas’ land commissioner, first denounced a white GOP state legislator who suggested “Asian” challengers on the ballot in 2020 were motivated by race. He then joined others Saturday in calling for the resignation of a Republican county chairwoman near Houston who used a racial slur in a text message about a black party organizer.

Out with it, George Prescott, which GOP Gang do you belong to? For a minute, I thought you were going to be the ‘realistic’ Bush, and cooperate with a more Trumpian manner of being conservative. Now, after that ‘racist episodes’ remark, I’m not so sure. Maybe you should ask Michelle Obama what you really think about the topics of the day. Like your uncle GWB does now.

The Iraq war started by your uncle cost our country Trillions of dollars, thousands of our soldiers killed and more maimed, and the middle-east is now much more destabilized than before the Iraq war. Invasion of Iraq was 2nd worst foreign policy blunder. 1st was starting a guerrilla war with 7000 miles long supply route, which cost us 50,000 killed and many more maimed, and Vietnam was lost to Ho Chi Minh the communist.

Georgie’s remark right now, in the middle of the impeachment abomination, shows how tin eared he is, especially running in a Republican primary in TX. Who the Hell does he think he’s appealing to? It’s certainly not the base who’re fighting as had as we can to save Our President Trump and American Civilization.

“only member of the Bush dynasty still in public office,”

That is the silver lining to his worthless ass being in public office at all-may everyone vote to make him the last one...

We should never let black racism stand.

Every black on white murder should be publicized and highlighted by the GOP.

“calling for the resignation of a Republican county chairwoman”

So he’s a sexist.

Sure is easy to play the name-calling game

For the USA a conventional land war in Asia is a very bad idea.

Absolutely correct. Racist comments should be denounced.

What is unavailable is what the comments were so we can see if they were actually racist.

Fraudulent accusations of racism should be denounced as well.

“But his latest rebuke was personal: in a tweet Wednesday, Bush questioned whether critics had falsely accused him of plotting to erect a statue of Santa Anna — the Mexican general whose troops killed Texas independence fighters at the Alamo in San Antonio in 1836 — because his mother, Columba Bush, was born in Mexico. He called the accusation “flat out racist.”

LOL. That is hilarious. Texas is going blue. Once it turns blue, it will never turn back. Texas and California are being reconquered by Mexico. The demographic change that the Bush family worked so hard to bring about is the end of the GOP as a national party. Only one demographic group votes Republican. It’s not 1964 anymore.

“shut up already”

That’s what I was going to say. That and that he should volunteer for work at a non-profit military (Navy, of course) air museum.
