Neil Bush, the son of President George H. W. Bush, who defrauded U.S. taxpayers out of $1.5 billion dollars in the savings and loan scam, and later peddled influence for the Chinese government, (who plied him with Chinese prostitutes) has formally endorsed Senator Ted Cruz for president. You can’t make this stuff up.
This endorsement says much. Since the other, more politically involved Bush men have a distinct dislike for Mr. Cruz, I suppose Neil Bush is better than no Bush. Let’s look at the wonderful memories that Neil Bush has left us with. First there is is that little banking charade he steered us into back in 1985.
Back in 1981, Neil Bush was director of Silverado Savings and Loan in Denver, Colorado. Neil was very generous, lending millions to pals Kenneth Good and William Walters. The $250 million in loans went into default, S.S. & L. went bankrupt and had to be seized by the Feds. Neil Bush walked away with a cool $100,000 personal loan which he never paid back. Documents released by the Office of Thrift Supervision detailed the conflict of interest charges against Neil. Federal regulators described him as “unqualified, and untrained” to be a director of a financial institution.
It seems Neil miscalculated just how much he knew about directing a mega financial institution like Silverado Savings and Loan. By the summer of 1990, the cost of bailing out the savings and loan industry would cost at least $500 billion! Neil’s Silverado adventure cost U.S. taxpayers $1.5 billion.

That is absurd. How is proposing a Constitutional amenment 'throwing it out the window'? I would oppose it, but there is nothing wrong with making the proposal.
Cruz recruited Roberts for Bush v Gore. not for the Supreme Court. So what’s your problem?
I could put in a Bible reference about false prophets, but it probably is not really necessary at this point.
The founders were very specific about purpose of a life long appointment. Cruz is just bull sh******.
IIRC, a justice can be impeached. But he'd never call to impeach his BFF, Roberts.
I didn't say it would.

They were specific about why there were no term limits in Congress too. You mistake me for a Cruz supporter. I don't have a preferred candidate, but I do oppose Trump.

This is just incoherent babble.
Roberts was at least qualified on paper, but we know it's always hard to predict how Supreme Court justices will rule once on the bench, at least if they are not rabid leftists. I don't fault him too much for that.
I fault the Sentate leadership for not fillibustering the two Lesbians (yes, they are!) Obama got to put on the court. What part of "war for the survival of the Republic" does the GOP establishment and Mitch McConnell not understand?
Too bad Bill Kristol, NRO and the rest of the inside-the-beltway crowd didn't figure out Ted was their best shot a long time ago, now it's likely too late.
They had a following out..
