ORLANDO, Fla. Jeb Bush rebuked Mike Huckabee on Monday for invoking the Holocaust in criticizing President Obama over the nuclear agreement with Iran, arguing that Republicans needed to tone down the rhetoric if they hoped to recapture the White House next year.
The use of that kind of language is just wrong, Mr. Bush told reporters after a town-hall-style meeting here. This is not the way were going to win elections and thats not how were going to solve problems. So, unfortunate remark not quite sure why he felt compelled to say it.
Mr. Huckabee, the former governor of Arkansas, said over the weekend that Mr. Obamas Iran policy would take the Israelis and march them to the door of the oven.
His incendiary language prompted a strongly worded rejoinder from Mr. Obama at a news conference in Ethiopia on Monday.
The particular comments of Mr. Huckabee are just part of a general pattern weve seen that would be considered ridiculous if it werent so sad, Mr. Obama said, linking Mr. Huckabees comments to similarly inflammatory rhetoric of late from those he called the leaders in the Republican Party.(continued)

I'll play along a little (politically) but this thing is cooked.
What?
So, what are you going to do, Jeb?
Tell the voters that they have nothing to fear from a Hillary presidency?
That worked out so well for McCain, it should do the same for you.
It ain't over until the fat lady sings.
They should make a sequel to “Argo” for Jeb Bush.
As in “aw go ____________ yourself”.
Note to Mike Huckabee:
Want to go up in the polls? Don’t back track on your comments. You’ve doubled down...good! Now it’s time to triple down, and find another item you can go after the Dems with, with the same resolve as this current issue you’re being attacked for.
If you cave to idiots like Bush and other GOPs, you stand will have been in vain.
Yo jeb,
Piss off
What in the world is the ADL thinking, they blasted the language Huck used as being disgusting. No , ADL what Iran has planned for Israel is disgusting another genocide. ADL stands for American Democrat Leaches. If this were Menendez saying it he would not get the ADL reaction because he is a Dem.
I have friends in Israel and Huck speaks about what they fear. Jeb is just a guy from the Upper Crust who never lived in a place attacked 8 times in 60 years.
Cruz, Huck, Rubio keep hounding the Jewish Dem Senators to find the courage to go against Obama
Reminder:
Lets be honest about who Jonathon Greenblatt is: Special Assistant to President Obama and Director of the Office of Social Innovation and Civic Participation.
Hes been at this new job with the ADL for about a week.
NYT is simply dishonest.
The Bush Dumkopf Uber Alles Party.
My European family died in Lemberg, Belzec and Auschwitz.
Huckabee is a decent man who has told the truth. Leave it to Jeb Bush to crucify him for it.
You know, it’s too bad Huckabee is a Christian statist. I would vote for him in a heartbeat if he would recognize that nanny-statism from the Right is just as bad from the Left.
Huckabee is a rabid statist. He is much more comfortable with Socialism than Capitalism. He is 100% for 100% amnesty. He would do nothing to secure the border.
In his mind he thinks government spending on social programs is Christian compassion.
I am certain that the GOPe pushed Hick-a-phony to run. The GOPe need to siphon as many votes as possible from Cruz and other true Conservatives running.
Iran wants nuclear weapons for the primary reason of using them on Israel.
This evil deal will result in 10's of millions of humans being incinerated.
We cannot allow Israel to be betrayed by the GOPe or this Marxist infested government.
Another RINO message from Jebbie on how to lose gracefully to the Dems.
You won’t get any argument from me. I disliked this fraud in 2008, and I dislike him even more.
Jeb! may need to switch parties and run in some fashion with Hillary. Hillary has more male hormones, so she will be on top of the ticket.
I guess Jeb felt he had to pick a side: Iran/Obama or USA/Huckabee, he obviously picked Iran/Obama.
Its too bad you are a willing tool of the MSM and just in case you think you have something on me with your vote - you can choke on it.
YOu have to remember that obammy has turned the fbi and other federal gub mint agencies in to his personal force.
And these politicians are ALL dirty, he has knowledge of said dirt.
