Jeb Bush just made a big break from many of his GOP rivals (Wouldn't ban Syrian refugees)

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) separated himself on Tuesday from some of the absolutist anti-Syrian refugee positions being offered by his Republican presidential rivals.

During an interview with Bloomberg Politics, Bush said "if there's any kind of concern," refugees should not be allowed in.

"But I don't think we should eliminate our support for refugees. It's been a noble tradition in our country," he added.

Currently, at least 30 States DISAGREE with pinhead Bush.

Jeb Bush has nary a clue.

Looks like Jeb! is on his way to 2% in the next round of polls. Better prepare another podium for the next “kiddies” debate.

I’m beginning to think his dad and brother made him run, and he really doesn’t want to win.

...that would explain a lot.

Is it mathematically possible to fall below zero in the polls?

Last Friday I heard a long interview of Bush by Hugh Hewitt. It was a friendly, positive interview, few really challenging questions, but an opportunity for Bush to elucidate his views free from critical interference. I realize now why Bush 's campaign is dead in the water. He had nothing to offer but Washingtonian soundbites and shorthand cliches.

On immigration for example-- "the system is broken, we've got to reform immigration laws, bring them into the 21st century." Build a wall? "build a wall where it is feasible and necessary." And so on. Nothing more than smoke. Classic political pablum fed to a presumably dull-witted and gullible public. No wonder they fall asleep at his diminutive campaign gatherings.

Jebbie is totally wrong. It is not a noble tradition in our country to welcome those who hate us and want to destroy us. BTW, how many refugees is his favorite country, Mexico, accepting? I hope none since it is too easy from there to slip into the U.S.

Replacing American workers with cheaper foreign labor get implemented more quickly if the American is slaughtered on the sidewalk. How could resist that?

Just 20 min ago I posted a Bush Family member would step in and throw Obama a bone.
No surprise it was Little Jebbie.

More jibber-jabber from Jebbers.

Surrender now Jeb! Avoid the humiliation and further embarrassment that you’ve become.

Does he get to go to the kiddie table now, or is it ‘night night’ for Jeb.
