Jeb Bush Says He Would Not Repeal Obama Immigration Order Right Away

Jeb Bush said in an interview that he would not immediately move to repeal President Obama’s executive order on immigration — suggesting he would instead wait for a new law to be passed addressing the matter.

In an interview with Megyn Kelly that is to be shown Monday night on Fox News, Mr. Bush said that rather than overturning the order, he believed in “passing meaningful reform of immigration and make it part of it.”

The president’s executive order seeks to shield millions of undocumented immigrants from deportation. Most presidential candidates in the Republican field either oppose Mr. Obama’s order on the merits — balking at letting undocumented immigrants stay in the country — or consider Mr. Obama’s actions a gross overreach of executive power. One candidate, Senator Ted Cruz of Texas, said he would nullify the order upon taking office if elected president.

Mr. Bush, who speaks Spanish and whose wife, Columba, was born and raised in Mexico, played down the potential perils that a Republican candidate seeking the party’s nomination might face by taking a more moderate stand on immigration.

“If you’ve been here for an extended period of time, you have no nexus to the country of your parents,” Mr. Bush says in the interview, a transcript of which was obtained by Bloomberg Politics. “What are we supposed to do? Marginalize these people forever?”

This is like a bad bream you have every night.

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

He’d wait until......ummmmm.....later.

Thanks Jeb. Now go away.

[DiogenesLamp]

Why do people keep giving a f*** what that pin head says about anything?

Jeb Bush is, or ought to be, a political non entity.

[VanDeKoik]

Gotta hand it to him. He is at least honest about his positions.

[SaveFerris]

Yes, he was already 700 feet down an idiotic hole.

He’s a brilliant one, fer sure.

You're right Spanky. That's why they don't learn English, demand Spanish government forms to fill out for free stuff and parade around the Mexican Flag while whining ours being displayed is offensive. FUJB Just say No to the Turd Bush. Flush repeatedly!
