Again: I wasn't endorsing Jeb. I don't like him. My point is... it's okay if we start getting our candidate out now. No. Not Jeb Bush.
And no, I don't want Jeb Bush. That was NOT an endorsement. Not by any means. No.
Imagine if Jeb Bush gets the Prez job and spends like mad, I bet Kevin will be right with him voting Yea to all appropriation bills
Back to my original thought. If Paul doesn't run? It's not out of the realm of possibility for Paul Ryan, Ted Cruz, or Jeb Bush to step up.
So pls dont let Jeb Bush become president in 2016. I dont mind Christie, just dont let another *** bush run this country lol

QUESTION: IS FORMER GOV.

ANSWER: THE BUSH CREDENTIAL IS ONE OF THE FEW NANE ABLE TO REVITALIZE THE TOO FAR TO THE RIGHT REPUBLICAN "POST TEA PARTY" UN POPULAR TO AN EVER GROWING "brown to yellow face BASE of 2016 VOTERS that need education reform, infrastructure growth, increase in small manority business development, safe communities, job,job, jobs and GOP with an "EAR" to the heart of the pulse of the black and latino ever "crying rainbow" of "Anguished" under-employed women AND "UN-EMPLOYED" near broken MEN!

Jeb Bush hit the TV talk shows Sunday, mainly to promote his book on immigration and explain his apparent shift on any 'path to citizenship.' But the question of 2016 inevitably came up, and the Former Florida Governor tried to deflect any notion that he might run.
Jeb Bush worries me--he's a smooth-talker with name recognition. But I think the thing that might kill him is that he's too smart. He's going to turn off all of the *** that voted for George. And how do two children get raised, and one sounds like Goober on Andy of Mayberry, and the other seemingly not have a trace of a southern accent. My money is that Bush faked it--and from the few times I've heard him since he's been out of office, he doesn't sound nearly like the hick he acted, and one of the first things he did was sell the "ranch." A bunch of rednecks got conned, but then, it isn't unusual. It's how republiCONS function.

Jeb Bush: 'You Guys Are Crack Addicts'-The Huffington Post Jeb Bush must have been tired of fielding questions on a potential 2016 run after a day of talk show appearances. "Man, you guys are crack addicts," he said to Meet The Press host David Gregory. "You really are obsessed with all this politics... okay, heroin addict. Is that better?" Bush was responding to a question from Gregory on how he stacked up to another assumed 2016 hopeful from Florida, U.S. Senator Marco Rubio.

BWB2020 says:"...no "Bush baggage"...? I guess he forgot about Grandaddy Prescott, who sold fuel oil to the Nazis. Seems he forgot about his daddy, the ex-CIA criminal, who told Saddam Hussein that it was OK to invade Kuwait, then had him murdered. It is also rather obvious that he cares nothing for the millions of dead, wounded, tortured, displaced, and otherwise harmed who lost their lives because of the lies of his brother. It as also Jeb's state that threw out the votes of Florida's "black" voters, to help his brother steal the election of 2000. He may have forgotten, but we haven't.

Then they put me outside in the FEMA camp yard where I was poisened by breathing Chemtrails sprayed in the sky by Homeland Security drones in hopes that I would die to lower the population.I refused to die so they took me back inside the FEMA camp and tortured me until I signed a paper swearing my allegience to Rick Rubio & Jeb Bush.but then when they weren't looking I escaped and ran home.omg.and I thought all of these people saying all of this were just paranoid.but it's all real, I swear it is and all of this happened today.

Today Jeb Bush called new reporters crack addicts or heroin addicts. Well he knows all about them. Check this out...Noelle Bush Born: 1977 Birthplace: Texas The daughter of Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush Noelle is the daughter of Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush and his wife, Columba, and the niece of former U.S. president George W. Bush. She has two brothers: George P. and John Jr. (known as Jebby). Noelle made news headlines on 29 January 2002 when she was arrested by Tallahassee police and charged with prescription fraud after she tried to buy the sedative Xanax at a local pharmacy. The case received extra attention because it echoed the 2001 arrests of Noelle Bush's cousins, Jenna & Barbara Bush, for underage drinking. In February 2002 Noelle Bush entered an Orlando drug treatment center. In July of 2002 she was jailed temporarily after she was found in possession of prescription pills, a violation of her court-ordered treatment plan. In September 2002 she was back in the news after police visited the d ...

Former US governor Jeb Bush calls political reporters "crack addicts" after chatter he might run for president.
Jeb Bush is about as relevant as the Whig Party, constitutionally-aware patriots want nothing to do with him- a nonstarter
Hey folks---Jeb Bush is not going to run for president in 2016 Look. Let Jeb Bush make the book-selling rounds. While his is still very popular in Florida, Rubio owns the state. Many of the die hard Jeb Bush supporters have now become Rubio groupies. Rubio's popularity trumps Bush's, especially down in Miami where Cuban-Americans, and other Latinos, swoon over everything Rubio says and does. You should see him in a crowd of 'abuelos'-he can do 'no' wrong in their eyes. Bush's change of position on immigration is problamatic for him among the mainstream Republicans, who had come to terms and accepted his pro-Amnesty position. Now some are unfairly comparing him to Charlie Crist. No one can be as big of a flip-flopper as the 'tanned-one.' I expect Bush to come very close to announcing, but then pull back and let Rubio run with the ball. Besides, Jeb is a RHINO.
Listen up. I think Jeb Bush is being a little harsh there on his older Brother. George Dubya isn’t even a reporter for chrissakes…

Im not getting the Jeb Bush thing His father was a bad President,who without Clinton in the picture,could have feasibly lost his re-election to Texas wack a mole Ross Perot. His Brother in as much as he was President(and it wasnt just Darth Cheney calling the shots) will go down as the worst President in the last 100 years(something the Harding,Coolidge and Hoover families will be eternally great full). His other Brother Neil is for all intents and purposes a career criminal. Speaking of which,his daughter was arrested on prescription drug charges,his son was arrested for drunk and disorderly,and his wife was detained by customs herself. He was a bad Governor( I would say horrible,but the people of Florida would find out later with Rick Scott,what a truly horrible Governor looks like((a bit like Jim Carey's Fire Marshall character on In Living Color)) who didnt cover himself with glory in Florida. So what exactly is the appeal of Dumpy Bush?
Jeb Bush now says he didn't really believe what he wrote in his book - that undocumented immigrants should not be eligible for a path to citizenship . Because he wrote the book last year, at a time when the immigration debate "was dramatically different." Looks like the "Etch a Sketch" has been passed to a new generation.
Jeb Bush says he is not thinking about presidential bid - yet via .
Jeb Bush, when asked if there is ANY Baggage to the "bush name" responded that he thinks people respect and revere his family. (Among other things in his long answer) What do you think of that? Whether you like W. Bush or not, is it realistic to think there is NO baggage that comes with the "bush name"?
On ABC's This Week, Jeb Bush lied about Obama's record on the debt to cover up his family history of destroying the American economy.
Jeb Bush spent the same amount of time in office as Governor of Florida as Gary Johnson did as governor of New Mexico and will have been out of office two years longer in 2016 than Johnson was in 2012. So given his tainted name and far less successful term as governor, how can he possibly be looked on as a viable presidential candidate? Yet that's how the media is choosing to present him, because he's the kind of dysfunctional Republican they like.
The most news-worthy person this week, according to the Sunday shows? Jeb Bush. Wait, what?
I don't care what anyone thinks of me. But I have always thought of Jeb Bush and his brother George Bush Jr. as real retards in my book.
Jeb Bush trying to run for president is like Billy Carter trying to run for president; The Bush family must think all Americans are stupid.
Jeb Bush called David Gregory a political "crackhead" on MTP this morning. New respect for Jeb Bush.
Jeb Bush envisions himself another Ronald Reagan -- a actor who pretended to be President.
Jeb Bush is not running for president. He has spent the last hour on Face The Nation (CBS) telling us that. This porky clown brother of Bush Jr., yes the one that stole that election, is actually being given tons of time on national television to, well, say whatever the *** he wants. "Patriotic Energy" plan. How to tweak the economy so that it can grow without taxing the wealthy. In fact, we must reduce their taxes so that they can be wealthier. Makes sense to him. And it must make sense to the owners of CBS who put him on. I wonder if it turns the stomach of Bob Schieffer to interview the guy. Probably not. They are all making such fortunes at the top and he right along with the rest.
Jeb Bush, who was governor of Florida for eight years, and is the smarter brother of George W. Bush, said he will decide if he will run for president sometime next year. This during one of five Sunday morning news magazine television shows. Really? Can't decide? I think he and Rand Paul have made their intentions very clear by their actions. The Democratic Party needs to take these two down now and be relentless in their pursuit of the White House in 2016 starting today. America cannot afford another Republican in the presidency giving away our country to his rich friends. Join Organizing for Action.
Jeb Bush just called David Gregory a "crack addict" for asking him about running for President! THAT was good!
Jeb Bush on Meet The Press. What would you think about ANOTHER Bush being President?
And to think Jeb Bush is supposed to be the smart brother.

Seriously, Jeb Bush bombing the Sunday shows without Tim Russert or Jake Tapper? No Jeb you will not become President. Go skiing instead and spare everyone.
Jeb Bush is not the answer. You & he know this. No McCain/Carl Rove clones. We want conservative!
Immigrants Yearn to Be Americans, Not a Permanent Underclass "Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to...be part of a permanent underclass in American society..."? Oops. Wrong America. While the italicized words above are mine, the opening words come from the inspiring poem by Emma Lazarus. Inscribed on the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty and written in the 1880s, Lazarus' poem cast America as the colossus that welcomed newcomers seeking to become new Americans. Her poem is a quintessentially American expression that gives greater meaning to the light of freedom extended by Lady Liberty. Considerably less inspiring has been the policy idea expressed in Jeb Bush's new book, Immigration Wars. He argues that the 11 million undocumented immigrants living and working in America should get legal residency, but not a path to citizenship. "It is absolutely vital to the integrity of our immigration system that actions have consequences," he wrote. "In this case, that those who violated the ...
Someone tell Mike Dowd that the "C" in "CPAC" stands for "Conservative," which is why people like Sarah Palin are invited to speak and people like Chris Christie and Jeb Bush are not.
Jeb Bush will be on all five Sunday shows. Usually when a Bush is on all the networks like that we're invading the wrong country.

Jeb Bush is considering a run for the White House in 2016. Burn me once, shame on you. Burn me twice, shame on me. Burn me THREE times and we may as well just rename ourselves Mexico
AH - Jeb Bush: 'Thank God for Mississippi and Louisiana' This is courtesy of my former Times-Picayune Washington colleague, Jonathan Tilove, now chief political reporter for the Austin American-Statesman. Tilove, in his First Reading blog, noted that Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush recently told the Texas Business Leadership Council's Education summit that when his state's schools were failing he used to say, "Thank God for Mississippi and Louisiana." Those two states were often rated worst in the nation for public schools, making Florida's pre-reform school system look better by comparison.
YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BELIEVE THIS ONE! On FOX News Special Report Paul Ryan and Jeb Bush were announce their candidates for President. Why so early? Is something going to go down soon? Neither one of these 2 guys has any business running for President. DO NOT FORGET, George Soros swore Jeb Bush would be president THIS term.
Wonder if Jeb Bush will run for President in 2016. I would like to see his name in the hat along with Rubio... (sp)
SUNDAY: Is a Clinton-Bush showdown in '16 possible? This could be the weekend when it all begins. Jeb Bush is appearing on all five major national political shows Sunday: Meet the Press, State of the Union, This Week, Face the Nation, and Fox News Sunday.

I don't like Rand, Marco, or McCain all that much. They are all Senators. I want somebody like Jeb Bush or Condi Rice in 2016
'When we were working on this, Marco Rubio wasn't for a path to citizenship,' Jeb Bush tells Michael Gerson.
Jeb Bush on Morning Joe remarked that some people were born rich and probably will stay rich and some people were born poor and probably will remain poor.He is sorry Mit Romney is not the President at this time ,as he would have been a great President.These Republicans think seriously that this country is theirs and they have no concern about the poor,this is what it is and they have no intention of changing the status of either group.Now we understand even more the reference to the takers in the 47% statement by Romney,he spoke for the entitled Rich. Democrats better take him seriously and make sure we vote for people who will have Agendas to change the lives of the middle and lower class citizens.Do we want another'' Entitled Bush'' in the White House as the next President? Poor are destined to remain poor.Go to University get qualified ,yet unable to get jobs most of the time. That is how it is supposed to be,money remains with the rich, who also determine the job availability to the others.The Dow ...
People that know me know that I am probably the last person to agree with a Republican, but, I believe Jeb Bush has a good point to citizenship of ilegal immigrants. The President wants a pathway straight to citizenship without to many stops. OK, great, but ole' Jeb wants to get legal first on this path and then move on up. I have to agree!!! First we need to get them legal, weeding out the ones that cannot become legal. Once legal, then apply for citizenship! Quit making a crisis out of everything just so TV news has something to put on TV!!! I mean REALLY!!! Is it a big story that New England is getting snow?
If the 2016 presidential election were held tomorrow, would you vote for Jeb Bush, Hillary Clinton, Rand Paul or name your candidate?
The early call for the Republican Presidential field in 2016- Rand Paul, Jeb Bush, Rick Santorum, Chris Christie, Rick Perry and any other combination of 20 far right wingers. None will believe in evolution, none will believe in gun safety legislation or background checks, none will support a Woman's right to choose, a pathway to citizenship, the Dream Act, a minimum wage increase, Universal healthcare, protecting Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid. With these things in mind, why would we ever consider their old, worn out solutions?
Even Marco Rubio and Lindsey Graham were banging their heads on the table yesterday after Jeb Bush's clumsy self-insertion into the immigration debate. Apparently his ghost writer never bothered to tell him his book, Immigration Wars, had just come out with a closed door against a path to citizenship and, just as apparently, he seems to have forgotten his Wall Street Journal OpEd from way back over a month ago. bit.ly/14AqdEV
Using my sure fire, never miss method for telling the future, which is to ask myself what the Billionaires want, if offer up this prediction: Well, Jeb Bush is going to be the next President. 1)The Bush family has been pushing for and funding the establishment of a Fascist regime in America since Grand Daddy Prescott got together with other Rich Industrialists in the 30's and offered to fund an armed coup to over throw FDR. George H.W. Bush went into the CIA and has been linked to both Kennedy assassinations. John Hinckley, who attempted to assassinate Reagan just 69 days after his inauguration? His father was a family friend of the Bush's. Hinckley's brother was due to have dinner with Neil Bush the day of the assassination attempt. Had he succeeded H.W. would have become president almost 8 years earlier. Dubbya introduced John Yoo's Constitutional reinterpretation of Presidential ofl powers during a time of war, which in turn gave us the never ending War On Terror and the Patriot Act. Which opened the . ...

So what did Rand Paul’s 13-hour filibuster accomplish? He didn't get everything right, but he he hit the "big picture" on Obama's drone policy while pulling the double feat of doing what potential 2016 hopefuls Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio have failed to do thus far.
Pay very close attention - Lindsey Graham and John McCain are attacking Rand Paul today...why? Because they want Jeb Bush to have that unchecked power to kill Americans or Foreigners with Drones.--- Statists come in all forms and plague both parties.
Can you believe that Koch-sucker Jeb Bush is actually positioning himself to run in 2016?
John McCain, Lyndsey Graham, Karl Rove, Jeb Bush … the last gasp of the Whig Party. Enjoy retirement, fellas. Yer done.
Jeb Bush, Obama’s EPA nominee, and the tie to Republican moderation.
I have taken the plunge and booked my reservation to the CPAC conference for March 14-16. I am extremely excited. Now I will book reservations at a hotel and travel. Mitt Romney will be making the Main Speech. Dr, Ben Carson, Eric Cantor, Jeb Bush, Kelly Ayotta and so many others will also be speaking. This will be a star studded cast of high level politicians. I will take many photos. I promise to send lots of pictures from Washington D.C. Bringing Laptop.

Laura Ingrahamremember this moment when and others tell us that Jeb Bush is the only Repub who can win in 2016.
Every time I see that Karl Rove, Jeb Bush or Ann Coulter is on I change the channel.
WASHINGTON -- Jeb Bush has long resisted pressure from supporters to run for president. Now the Former Florida Governor is signaling that he's at least open to the idea, a shift that comes as he promotes a new book and Republicans struggle to rebound after President Barack Obama's re-election.
Lori Luster I'm putting it out there right now. Jeb Bush will be the Republican nominee for President in 2016. Hillary Clinton vs Jeb Bush. This will be a great campaign between both parties best hope. And if Hillary doesn't run, Jeb Bush WILL be the next President because conservative dems would vote for Jeb. Especially if Jeb runs as a moderate.
Video on msnbc.com: Mother Jones’ David Corn and Republican strategist John Feehery discuss the prospect of Jeb Bush running for president in 2016.
Interesting to see the Republican Party now floating Jeb Bush heavily for 2016. I still think it is way too early but you would think after getting spanked for running an unlectable candidate, who doesn't represent the party effectively they would just look for someone who can unite. How about looking to Chris Christie this time. Get over the separatism.
Jeb Bush has been doing something he's never really done before: talking publicly about running for president.
Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush has been making news this week by refusing to rule out a 2016 presidential run, and for an IHOP's worth of flipping on the issue of immigration reform. On Tuesday night's The Ed Show, host Ed Schultz gave Jeb Bush a preview of what he can expect for the next few year...
Today: Political Junkie, Chavez's Venezuela, 911 Dispatchers, What's Next For Venezuela Political Junkie When Congress failed to act last week, a series of automatic government spending cuts went into effect. Both parties are pointing fingers and laying blame for sequestration. Guest host Lynn Neary and Political Junkie Ken Rudin discuss the political fallout from the across-the-board cuts with Rob Levinson, senior analyst with Bloomberg Government. They'll also discuss the week in politics from Jeb Bush's plans for the future to President Obama's latest cabinet nominees. Chavez's Venezuela Venezuela's president Hugo Chavez died yesterday in Caracas, leaving many questions unanswered -- who will replace him, how will the country be run in the weeks leading up to the election, and what does Venezuela's future hold?

The news today is really terrible: a chinese car thief strangles a baby left in the car he stole, Jeb Bush (God save us) has his eye on the White House for 2016 - who's his running mate, Howdy Doody? - and 14 stories regarding the hair, opinions and activities of Jenna Elfman and Colin Farrell ( why?) Stay in bed...oh, and the usual boring hits of Mitch (the old girl) McConnell and W, who we find should be tried for war crimes more each day...
Jeb Bush's book hurts immigration reform,Last fall, the Goldwater Institute’s Clint Bolick said he wanted to help move forward the debate on immigration reform.
Carl Rove's party will give you Jeb Bush!!! Me? I think I will stick with someone like Rand Paul. Republicans... Here is my message to you. You had better get it together REAL QUICK. Shed your Carl Rove's and listen to the American people or you will lose your party forever. Remember the Whigs?
The fact that a few Republicans like Jeb Bush can honestly confess that the Republican Party has done a poor job in appealing to minorities (especially blacks) whereas Black Republicans themselves sign up to call blacks "brainwashed" and "slaves to the Democratic party" only re-enforces the belief that Black Republicans are Useful *** and "Uncle Toms!" ... I am NOT calling them that! I am simply saying that their unwillingness to say what Jeb Bush admits gives many that impression!
certainly gets more than his fair share of attention for an ex-Gov, doesn't he?

Jeb Bush. The poster child for Another "it's the sizzle, not the steak" GOPer hyping the same old bad policies
The media is already slamming Jeb Bush! Not that he is entertaining any idea of running for President, but just in case . . . let's "dirty" him up now! Chavez died and I read where the wealthy of Venezuela are fleeing that country in droves? Why, if they made so much money there would they want to leave? hm . . . redistribution of their wealth? I just learned about this government insurance company scam yesterday. It appears that our Federal Government is subsidizing insurance companies to set up coverage for those that can't afford regular health insurance and lo and behold, friends and cronies of our President have rushed to start insurance companies so they can secure those funds. Not Blue Shield, mind you, but some of the poorest excuses of "insurance" companies you can imagine are getting those funds. $346 million to arguably the worse insurance company in the nation and another one, a start up in 2011 received $56 million. If Congress doesn't put a stop to this scam, with our money, then th ...
