“It was MY turn to be president and they took it away! Waaaaah!”
There’s definitely something wrong with this man.
Thomas Jefferson, in ‘Notes on Virginia’, was very clear in his opposition to immigration in large enough numbers to alter the character of American culture and politics at any level. The Know-Nothings stood on firm ground.
I liked Jeb as gov. In Florida. He turned the state around and was highly popular, but he was an absolute disaster as a pres. candidate.
He was never ahead and he stayed too long in the race after he was shown there was no chance in hell he would be the primary winner.
He has no credibility. He needs to shut his pie hole.
Yes. Jefferson also explained why he cut legal corners to purchase Louisiana to create a buffer between the Anglo culture of the Eastern States & the Hispanic culture to the South West. He was not anti-Mexican; but he understood the significant differences, and the consequences of too much “diversity,” in American communities. Our “Politically Correct” politicians, journalists & educators are simply in denial.
He’s still a Feckless TURD! The only good news is that the “Boosh Children” will not have any success in politics. Now, Texas, get rid of the Half-Breed Mexican Boosh you have elected. He’s as worthless as is his father! The Booshes should get the boot from both Florida and Texas. Let them go home to Kennebunkport and lick whatever part of themselves they can reach with their tongues.
He should get together with Fat AL Gore; they can sit in their caves and cry together.
Yeb! was never going to be President. He was supposed to be the Designated Loser this time around and take a dive for Hillary like McAmnesty and Romneycare did for the Usurper.
Irish immigrants to America were indeed known in the 19th century as given to crime, ignorance, religious indifference, and sexual license. (Sound like another ethnic group today?) Their transformation began and succeeded a half-century earlier than 1945, however. The man who accomplished that almost single-handedly was the Archbishop of New York, John "Dagger John" Hughes.
Becoming Archbishop in 1839, he founded New York's huge and successful Catholic school system. He also launched, with his priests and teaching orders of nuns, a project to civilize the huge immigrant Irish population of New York and New Jersey--teaching them to live their faith, be temperate in drink, to abstain from sex outside of marriage, and to love education, manners, and law and order. (Search the Manhattan Institute's City Journal for a great article on Dagger John.)
Abp. Hughes's success in civilizing not only the huge existing population of existing Irish immigrants, but the millions more (including my ancestors) who came over during the British-engineered Potato Famine of the 1840s within a few decades was astonishing, and should be studied for use today.
By the early 20th century, there were many prominent and respectable Irish-Americans in prosperous Irish enclaves of major cities. There is no way Al Smith could have become governor of (Protestant) New York State and then the Democratic nominee for President in 1928 if Abp. Hughes's transformation had not borne fruit several decades earlier.
Wow, suddenly liberal media is in love with Bush. Who know !!!
Awesome post; thank you, I needed that after a week of sick MSM BS.
Hes still a Feckless TURD! The only good news is that the Boosh Children will not have any success in politics. Now, Texas, get rid of the Half-Breed Mexican Boosh you have elected. Hes as worthless as is his father! The Booshes should get the boot from both Florida and Texas.

I thought Yeb was the last of the Know-Nothings.
Please clap.
Jeb Bush family -
Wife is a tax cheat, caught bringing foreign goods without paying custom duty which everyone like us had to pay.
Daughter is recovering drug addict and working as a receptionist at a place, who is doing favor to Bush family.
Son doing no show job paid by tax money.
No comparison with Trump family.
This little twerp is showing his ass along with his true colors.
We owe the Bush family so much for everything they did for America. They invaded Iraq....twice. They hunted down and executed Saddam Hussein who was the only friend the Jews and Christians had in the middle east.
That needless invasion put the entire middle east in turmoil....no more strong man. No more Iraqi planes bombing Tehran.
The Iranian hierarchy is mighty beholden to the Bushes.
Jeb has a grade-school understanding of American history. It goes well with his grade-school mentality.
