Jeb Bush implored his Republican presidential rivals Monday to reject the "crazy message of hate" that he sees at play in the campaign and cast himself as a "committed conservative," but not an "angry" one, in remarks rooted in Donald Trump's inflammatory rhetoric and the backlash that followed.
As conservatives, he said in a speech to pastors, "if we act with our heart, people will rise." Afterward, Bush gave his call for political civility a harder edge in a raucous rally where he urged other GOP contenders to quit scolding each other.
"We have to campaign with joy in our hearts - not anger," Bush said. "We shouldn't say outrageous things that turn people off to the conservative message. Our message is the one of hope and opportunity for everyone."
"We must reject this crazy message of hate."
Trump wasn't mentioned in his remarks but it was a conspicuous dressing down of the billionaire who roiled the race with his comments about Mexico and Mexican immigrants, setting off a round of name-calling between Trump and some others in the field. Bush, as he often does in campaign speeches, switched to Spanish at both events though the crowd at his rally was mostly English-speaking.

We should campaign with “joy in our hearts” about how to solve the ISIS problem? Not hate? OK ...

So now all his media buddies can paint him as “the adult in the room’.
Actually, he’s the crook in the room just like his buddies McConnell, Boehner, Graham, McCain,etc.

If he’d stop listening to the MSM lefties, he wouldn’t hear a “crazy message of hate”.

THE FOLLOWING IS A SAMPLE OF HATE FROM THE LEFT AGAINST JEB'S BROTHER FOR 8 YEARS:
To: jimbo123
Who’s hating? Big difference between calling someone wrong, Telling them to their face that their worldview and morals and direction are not right and actually hating them.
You can not believe in anything a person stands for and does and still not hate that person.
Jeb is playing fast and loose with the dictionary.

We should have ran away from GHB the first time he ever uttered the phrase “compassionate conservative”.
