This is a Youtube video where Jeb Bush initially states to reporters: I don't regret using the term 'anchor baby' and then when he sees the reporters zero in on that his political hack instincts kick in and he gets that fear look on his face and asks the reporters what is an accceptable term to used.
Look at the video 9 seconds in and see the reporter in the blue checkered shirt on the right snicker at the pathetic scrambling Bush is doing. The reporter Bush initially turns to an asks for a PC term for "Anchor Baby" is kind of shocked that he is asked that and he shrugs basiclaly saying that is not his job.
So Bush started out trying to "stand his ground" and not back down from using the term "anchor babies" to within seconds surrendering and asking for the politically correct term to use and says "I will use it".
Look it is simple. Illegal aliens (which I hear is also now an 'offensive term') come to the USA and have a baby. This baby is now automatically an American citizen and "anchors" the illegal parents to the USA (prevents them from being easily deported) like anchoring a boat in harbor. It is not offensive. It accurately describes what the baby's citizenship at birth status does for it's illegal alien parents.
So click the link and see for yourselves.
Babies born in 1944 were called FODDER FOR HITLERS MACHINE GUNS.
He seems to have followed what Trump did except for claiming it wasn’t “his” term but he was just repeating it.
So far so good but then he followed that by saying all children born in here should be citizens. Not good.
Jeb still thinks the media is there to help him.
I think people that are born in this country ought to be American citizens...”
Hey Jeb...Go tell an ambassador from China or from Russia that their newborn child who was born in the USA is now an American citizen....
Every day is another step backwards for the Joyful Toad.
“JEB took the bait and floundered. Trump had the same type of engagement and destroyed the reporter.”
It’s not about the size of the dog in the fight, it’s about the size of the fight in the dog.
Or, in JEBs case, the total and complete lack of fight in the small dog.
....so anchorman or anchorwoman is derogatory?
Just steal the left terms and call them Unviable Citizens that we choose to abort.
What’s the lefts response, claim we want to kill them?
I love the sound of leftist heads exploding in the morning.
Agreed...I get sick and tired of hearing “undocumented”...
It’s ILLEGAL!!!!!!
That should have been “words to use” rather than “used”. Sorry about that - my first post.
Welcome to FR!
and the reason why they have no documents is because they’re ILLEGAL.
This name game is pathetic and using nice words like gay puts a positive spin on their agenda,
When I talk to people I use the correct words and if someone does not like it then tough.
illegal fetuses.
I think we have a winner!
I don't want a President who vacillates and folds on an encounter with idiot reporters. Can you imagine how he would vacillate and fold on tough issues?
America needs Bush III (Or Hitlery, for that matter) like it needs 30,000,000 (That’s what the ex-Mexican ambassador claims we’re saddled with) more scum from societies south of our border. It’s like a gigantic Castro-Carter Muriel boatlift.
I am now solidly of the opinion that a Donald Trump is needed as I honestly believe he’ll reverse some of the despicable orders that the foreign aid student has unleashed upon a politically sophomoric electorate.
It does matter who’s in the White Hut after all.
When we look at the mess in the middle east without Saddam Hussein we realize that Bush I and Bush II either had their head up their arses or deliberately paved the way for the NWO and Skeeter Mommyjeans and his retinue of commies and perverts.
I can’t even watxh Jeb anymore because I cringe with embarrassment for him. Its pathetic.
I can’t recall Jeb saying he would continuing call them anchor babies. In fact, he didn’t.
