We have always been told Jeb was the SMART ONE! Sure doesn't seem like it!

Every day he responds to questions from the press with a worse answer (or sometimes multiple answers) than the days before. I wonder if he just might decide NOT to run because he doesn't want to face the probability of a loss.

Its proven though that he's absolutely NOT the smart Bush OR they're all dumb and differ by degree.

1. That whole family is appearing to be as dumb as a bag of hammers and

just as dangerous if used wrong.

[Nay]

2. I maintain that Jeb does not want to be president, and is running a lackluster

dumb-as-a-post campaign because of that. Maybe he wants campaign cash, maybe he wants to please Daddy, maybe he wants speaking fees, who knows. But he comes across as an absolute dolt.

3. In the land of the blind, one-eye is king.

Doesn't mean we should be fooled in giving Cyclops any power: he'd devour innocents on a hitherto unprecedented scale.

4. The bar was set pretty damn low with George.

5. The weird thing is that GHWB was pretty smart.

A sneaky, lying, conniving, double-dealing, greedy three-faced shitweasel to be sure, but pretty smart.

All of his sons are dumber than a bag of hair. Complete morans who could completely FUBAR a two-car funeral on a one-way street even if you spotted them the hearse.

They are as useless and worthless as a collection of left-handed football bats.

8. A very succinct description

You've nailed it.

9. Dumb....

came from momma.

11. I remember hearing that Bar was a pretty good drinker in those years.

No wonder her sons would lose to Zippy the Pinhead on Celebrity Jeopardy.

6. It's all relative (no pun intended!)

[djean111]

7. The BFEE has so much money and so much influence that it does not matter.

And Jeb is well aware of that.

[JHB]

10. Just shows you what counts as 'smart' among Bushes n/t
