Former Republican president George W. Bush told donors that Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) is his brother Jeb Bushs most formidable opponent in the GOP primary, according to Politico.
Politico spoke to half a dozen donors at an Oct. 18 event in Denver. The attendees reported that Bush said I just dont like the guy.
Bush also slammed Cruzs alliance with runaway frontrunner Donald Trump, who has repeatedly mocked Jeb as pathetic and low energy.
-snip-
The event was organized by the GOP establishment to bolster Jebs campaign. But it managed to attract only one hundred donors by offering last-minute, reduced-price ticket sales to fill up the room, Politico added.

Spokesman for Bush did not deny the attacks on Cruz. Good. We'll see how that works out for Jeb...

Do not hold yourself responsible for when you have been lied to. We were lied to. But, now we know better.

GHWB does not have my vote for a great president. All I am saying is that by all accounts he was a decent, intelligent and hardworking man. And, it was not at all clear at that time that the establishment republican party was an irredeemable sell-out to the k-street crowd.
To: AndyJackson
I read his lips, and he lied. He is a deceiver.

Notice Dubya does not quite have the stones to go after Trump. Trump is just waiting licking his lips. LOL!

“GWB is putting dynasty over nation. Why cant they all just go away?”
Because along with the Clintons and the Obama’s they are NWO minions. The first time I ever hear the phrase New World Order uttered it was from the mouth of George Herbert Walker Bush. I didn’t even know what he was talking about. But I do now.

When George 1 became President I was still active in the Republican Party. We had great hopes back then. I went to a meeting where the new head of the Department of Education was featured. We thought we were going to get inspiration about the feds letting states and communities set our own education goals, maybe with the feds providing a clearing house for the sharing of ideas. Instead we got federal initiatives "to get everyone prepared for the world of technology by the year 2000" and "A thousand points of light". Nothing about individual rights, responsibilities or input. Everything from the top down.
It was disconcerting. We thought we were there for panel discussions and our input. Surprise!

Totally agree on the willingness to defend and agree with the question why Cruz?
Cruz never went after Jeb the way Trump has........Ted is still raising cash and has the best ground game. The polls are not reflecting reality.......I hope.
Cruz it or lose it.
