The topic here is Jeb Bush not George Bush if that is what you are talking about. Wasn’t Jeb governor of Florida at the time?

Duh. You are correct. I thought it was a "Bushes make bad Presidents" point. Anyway I do believe Jeb was indeed Governor but not sure what he could do to stop federal agents from executing an order issued by the Attorney General, even if he was informed about it in advance.

I guess my point is that blaming anybody but Bill Clinton or Janet Reno for that travesty is letting them off the hook. On the other hand, if the situation left you with an instinct to think Jeb was weak and unprincipled, well, you got it right so I shouldn't criticize :-)
