Wednesday at the Detroit Economic Club, former Gov. Jeb Bush (R-FL) said to “create high, sustained economic growth,” we need to “dramatically expand immigrants that are coming to work.”

UNBELIEVABLE! Obama’s importing muslims by the tens of thousands and the border’s wide open and I read that ‘immigrants’ are getting most of the jobs. The Pubs may manage to get Jeb elected, I’m afraid. They are squeezing the ‘white man’ out of existence...

Jeb Bush is a lunatic. He's apparently gone 'all in' on open borders.

Jeb doesn't have a tin ear, he's got a cheap made-in-Mexico plastic ear.

No, Jeb isn’t tone deaf. He knows exactly how we think. But he has decided he’s right, we’re wrong, and that he’s gonna jam it right up our ass. He hopes that will make him look strong to the democrat voter that he’s “standing up to the conservatives”.

Its an extremely cynical strategy.

Globalist Jeb Bush is trying to flood our country with illegal immigrants in order to drive wages down and to stay in power.

The real unemployment number is around 30 million, and not the poppy crock 5.7 or whatever B.S. number they are trying to push.

You do know the Feds consider you employed if you work for over $20 for 1 hour in a month.

They consider you employed if you are a part timer.

They consider you employed if you give up looking. It’s a joke.

Jebbie boy is obsessed with immigration to a pathological degree. He can’t make one speech without obsessing over it.

The Bushes and the Kennedys have played a bigger part in flooding this country with immigrants, legal and illegal, than any other small group we could name. There is something about these inheritors of great wealth and status they did nothing to earn that seems to make them want to give away US citizenship as if they’re doing missionary work. Inheritors guilt, and it’s very unhealthy for the entire nation.

Hopefully, this obsessive, arrogant and offensive jerk will be rejected.

JEB! is a cunning liar. He is not a conservative, a liberal or anything other than an elitist who serves his elitist brethren.

The laughable prevarication that he is a conservative should be an object lesson in just how much contempt he has for the intelligence of the American people.

We have unemployment rates that haven’t been seen since Jimmy Carter was president.

Why would we want to bring in more low skilled labor?

Why not encourage the chronically unemployed to get back in to the workforce by cutting welfare benefits?

We need every able bodied person to be productive if we want our economy to start growing

Bringing more low skilled workers in to the country who will likely increase the burden on social welfare programs and public schools is not the answer it is more akin to throwing gasoline on the fire.

Jeb is not our man.

I totally agree with your assessment, DesertRhino. The establishment Pubbies are always more concerned with how the Dems think of them than the true grass-roots Republicans.

These elites are so out of touch with the middle class. It makes me a bit more sympathetic for the way the French revolution was executed.

JEB, we need to FIRST get Americans back to work with less taxes, more freedoms for entrepreneurs, less union interference and less government.

After, we can have ILLEGALS look for work, when unemployment is at 0%.

More from Jeb:

Past Bush immigration remarks shock conservatives:

==

Is that part of his "reform conservatism"?

==

“reform”

1. A change for the better as a result of correcting abuses
2. A campaign aimed to correct abuses or malpractices
3. Self-improvement in behaviour or morals by abandoning some vice

==

Doesn’t sound a whole lot different from Obama declaring that they will be ‘fundamentally changing the nation’ when elected.

==

Jeb is trying to redefine his own brand of “conservatism” that fits with his progressiveness. Jeb can take his “reform” and cram it up his “compassionate” rear.

"Dramatically expand immigrants"?

You'd think he'd have learned something about the English language by now.

The Phillips Academy, pot-smoking, dim-witted, bully Jeb Bush will be the GOPee nominee for president in 2016, and he will be soundly crushed by whomever the Rats put up against him.

But so what — there’s not a dimes worth of difference between the GOPee and the Rats.
