REPUBLICAN CIVIL WAR: BUSH SAYS TRUMP 'BAFFOON' A 'CLOWN' AN '***HOLE'
http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2015/08/gop-2016-debate-jeb-bush-donald-trump-121076.html#.VcNyqktq5SE
The half-dozen conservative senators and governors who had planned to run before Bush brought out his shock-and-awe fundraising campaign, had to laugh: They viewed Bush himself as an intruder, a political semi-retiree who sat on the sidelines for eight years while they fought Barack Obama. Now it was Bush’s turn to rage at an outsider.
“Seriously, what’s this guy’s problem?” he asked one party donor he ran into recently according to accounts provided by several sources close to Bush—and he went on to describe the publicity seeking real estate developer now surging in public polls far ahead of Bush and all the 15 others in the Republican field as “a buffoon,” “clown” and “***hole.”
Has Rove declared Trump the loser yet?
Pray America is waking
BRIT: “Mr. Trump, Governor Bush has been, on your left, has been quoted to have called you a buffoon, a clown and a word I can’t repeat on television, how do you respond to that...uh.......after your regain you composure from laughing”
A third party would insure a Republican defeat and serious losses down ticket.
If TEA Party locals turn out for their own (likley, as they are grassroots), the Republican party could collapse, or have serious defections to the DemoRat party. Certainly it will no longer be a major party.
I wonder if Jeb is going to use those words tonight? That would be something.
No but America HAS call Rove “loser”!
A presidential candidate can choose other language.
¡Yeb! is mad because he was supposed to be the gracious designated loser to President Hillary!
The Uniparty had it all worked out until that Trump fellow stepped in.
Good point.....Bush was doing nothing for 8 years while we are fighting the closet homoPres odumbi. Trump will crush him with that.
Yes, perhaps “asshole” was inappropriate for the level of discourse...
But I’d also assert that that is exactly the personality type that is needed in this day and age to beat back the media, PC, the left, etc,
that has used our side’s civility against us while not holding themselves to that standard.
I believe it was genuine insomuch as he believes he really is a Catholic, and converted because he really believes it's the true religion of Christ. I believe this because there were rumblings about his brother converting after having met with Benedict XVIth a few times. So it's not that much of a stretch to believe his conversion was ultimately genuine (it seems interest in the religion runs in the family). The fact that it (may) help his appeal to Hispanics is a bonus in his mind I'm sure. But not the reason he converted.
As BarbM pointed out though, he's not really a Catholic, if he hasn't confessed and repented of the sinful way he treated Teri Schiavo. In other words, if he really believes he did right by her, he's a CINO, a cafeteria Catholic, picking and choosing which dogmas to follow and when. Much like "Catholics" who use contraception.
Wonder why Fox still allows him to comment on the primaries. Actually, I don't. We know who Murdoch wants as the nominee.
Pot, meet Kettle.
I await the moment after the debate when the candidate’s wives show up on the stage.
Take THAT, Jeb.
;)
W must be sitting back saying “they called me dumb?”.
Bet Luntz has his hand picked Trump haters lined up and ready to go.
Trump has to be careful in that regard. When did Trump stop donating to Dems?

He’s going to just pick up his dolls and go on home.
