[Antoninus]

Is it because I expect someone who is demanding something of Jeb Bush to expect the same of himself?

Sorry, very weak argument. Jeb Bush has a primary responsibility to protect innocent life in Florida. He is their elected governor. If I'm elected governor of Florida within the next few hours, let me know.

What you are is someone who advocates civil disobedience - just not for "Antoninus".

I'm beginning to believe that the Bush boys, Dad and all, suffer from a shallow attachment to the great ideas that are knocked around here every night. They golf; they boat; they pay their dues at the country club, but their convictions are handled by a different department. In a bio of Condi Rice I read a quote from George Sr., who said, "everything I know about the Soviet Union is what she tells me."

This from the leader of the free world.

It really isn't any wonder the Bush brothers can't bring themselves to use the executive power. Jeeves is telling them it wouldn't be polite.
