Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R), a likely 2016 presidential candidate, faced off against a hostile college student on Wednesday.
The student, identified in reports as 19-year-old Ivy Ziedrich, introduced herself as a young Democrat attending the University of Nevada, Reno.
She quickly moved on to accuse Bush's brother, former President George W. Bush, of laying the groundwork for the rise of the Islamic State jihadist group (also known as ISIS). Ziedrich argued that the US didn't do enough to take care of former Iraqi soldiers after Geroge W. Bush invaded Iraq in 2003.
"The threat of ISIS was created by the Iraqi Coalition Authority which ousted the entire government of Iraq. It was when 30,000 individuals who were part of the Iraqi military ... were forced out. They had no employment. They had no income. Yet they were left with access to all of the same arms and weapons," Ziedrich said. "Your brother created ISIS."
Jeb Bush initially wasn't quite sure how to respond.
"Is that a question?" he asked.
"You don’t need to be pedantic to me, sir," she replied.

I wonder if a Conservative student (or anyone ELSE) will get an opportunity to cast an uncomfortable question in Hillary’s face.
I am sure she will have her goons pre-empt anything like that!
All hail the Dauphin, Jeb The Inevitable - so says the media.
They will destroy him, should he become the GOPe choice - which is what the Left wants...
The former governor blamed the decision to completely withdraw U.S. troops out of Iraq during President Obama’s administration for the rise of the Islamic State’s ability to conquer vast swaths of Iraq and Syria – not the US’ initial invasion.
“We can rewrite history all you want but the simple fact is that we’re in a much more unstable place because America pulled back,” Bush told her before moving on to greet other people at the Nevada event.
W wrote that hateful koran?
After the left burn his a$$ a few times he’ll curl up and go back to FL.
He will bring a new level of embarrassment to the GOP. The Dems, OTOH, have no such such vulnerability.
She has as much or more validity to her point than Jeb has for unlimited immigration.
have her goons... Yeah, but only the tenured ones.
The RAT narrative on ISIS has been set and Jeb was unprepared as usual. He should have been ready for the question and the aggressiveness of the RAT operative, but of course he fumbled as usual.
Ivy is just another low information, horse’s ass vacationing on the commie, lib ‘RAT plantation. Bush DID NOT CREATE ISIS. ISIS is a spinoff of Barry’s bull**** in the Middle East pulled off by Hillary and Hanoi Boi. Remember “the Arab Spring” and “The Muzzie Bros”? Ivy needs to get a history book and have somebody read it to her.
I'm sure she makes her leftist parents proud.
You could tell in the clip that she had memorized her lines.
Even if you think that we shouldn't have gone into Iraq, it doesn't take much to understand that pulling out in the way we did (OBAMA!) left a huge space for ISIS types to fill. And I don't believe that we couldn't wipe the ISIS creeps out in six months if we really cared to.
But it couldn’t be that Obama’s abandonment of Iraq had anything to do with it.
Bush should have schooled Ivy, but he was unprepared.
Again, Bush should have been prepared for the RAT question (which had been scripted) and he wasn’t.
What? Bush didn’t create ISIS. What is wrong with the Left Wing anymore? Have they all gone insane?
Why wasn’t Bush prepared for the question?
Jeb should have had a response, but the college student is a moron.
ISIS was created by Obama, who called them the “JV Team” while they were preparing to murder Christians.
Dubya WARNED AGAINST allowing Al Qaeda to morph into groups like ISIS.
Wait until BDS kicks in fully...we know the bush run is a result of collaborative efforts between GopE and socialist left, but even the left can’t control their wackadoo constituency.
All those years GW was silent on those attacks against his character? All those years he remained silent while they assaulted his name and his record? All the years he allowed the left to build mountains of lies that drove their supporters insane with hatred? Well, in absolutely blowing away any chance of another bush getting elected, it may have been a service.
Go home Jeb, you’re clueless...
