Jeb was a pretty good governor. He just has all the charisma of a turnip, and is wrong on some national-level issues. But as a governor, he was good.

That is a bit of an understatement. He thinks we can win in the Middle East by having more Sunni friends, like his pals in Saudi Arabia. Apparently he doesn't realize that their close associates are ISIS supporters. He also has suggested a no-fly zone in Syria. Apparently he hasn't considered what telling Russia they can't fly their jets means. Or what could happen the first time an American fighter jet tries to engage a Russian fighter over Syria.

And in the last debate Bush was all for Selective Service registration for young women. But he says he's not in favor of a draft. So what would be the point? If he's not in favor or a draft why not just abolish Selective Service registration for everybody? Or does he really want to see a draft which, under the equal protection clause, would have to be equally directed at young men and women?

Of course he also is against eminent domain, except when it is for public benefit, like the Keystone Pipeline. Oops, he forgot that is a private business whose purpose is to enrich guys in the oil industry.
