Bush 41: Jeb Bush for President

During an interview on "FOX News Sunday," the nation's 41st president said Jeb, the former governor of Florida, is "as qualified and as able as anyone I know in the political scene" to be president.

"I'd like to see him run," Bush said. "I'd like to see him be president some day.

"As president, it's about service, service for the greatest country on the face of the Earth and the honor that goes with it," Bush said. "I think Jeb fits that description."

1. oh I missed this

"It's been tough on his father and his mother," the ex-president said. We're not very good sports about sitting around and hearing him hammered"

Yes, we are also tired of hearing him hammered :rofl:

6. but we didn't actually choose the current loser
Edited on Sun Jan-04-09 01:26 PM by MartyL
that is why I am so worried. I thought it was a joke when I heard jr was running. Then they stole the election (twice) and we have had an 8 year national nightmare, millions of people dead, country is in the worst debt ever... it will take decades to get over the mess he made. Now it looks like they plan to dump all the problems on Obama, bash him for the next four years meanwhile Jeb becomes a Senator, then they steal it 2012 again.

16. One of the things we have learned about how
to steal an election is that it has to be close in order for them to do so. If Obama retains his current popularity there should be no problem. It would be a blunder for Jeb to try and run in 2012 anyway. 2016 is more likely.

26. I don't think it was close in 2004
They can just flip the numbers. Anything is possible with computers and our current voting process.

The reason they didn't steal it this time is that they didn't really want McCain. He was just filler. They want to dump everything on Obama and then bash him for it thus paving the way for Jeb.

24. I couldn't care less
He's twice as evil as the son - he and his goons put him in office. He's only upset people hate the war criminal because of his own fat ego. He knows his son is an asshole.

9. These merry nazis control everything!
Look at the way the corporate media is gushing all over Bush's presidency, it was so wonderful, Iraq was a success, Bush is such a great guy....nothing has changed.

They only let Obama through because he is part of their plan, dump on Obama, then steal it again. Jeb signed on to PNAC and they will not give up until they finish their plan, and right now they control everything and everyone. They are not leaving.

7. Hey Pappy Nutsack....
...don't you realize that your gene pool (the dribble that made it into the diseased womb of the Silver Douchebag) is responsible for more death and destruction on this Earth than some of the more egregious dictators of history?

Oh, I forgot, your name is Bush as in Motherfucker.

11. It will take several centuries before the stench
of the Bush presidencies become a distant memory in order for anyone from that family to be elected to a high ranking office again.

17. are you people serious?
These bastards were able to stick us with Reagan after Nixon's filth. Then they were able to stick us with TWO Bu$hes, not just one!

They own the media. They have gobs of money. They can shove little Jeb down our throats too.

They are IN NO WAY finished.

rant off.

19. If I believed in a punishing god (which I don't)
the Bush family would be construed as our national comeuppance. At least hurricanes, floods, avalanches, earthquakes, tsunamis and asteroid impacts are random acts of nature. In contrast, the Bushfamily destructiveness is calculated, malicious and very, very deliberate. Poppy is obviously using an alternative definition for 'service' (as in, he got 'serviced' by Jennifer Fitzgerald); so, yeah, he'd probably like for Jeb to continue the family tradition of 'servicing' the country to add to the family fortune.

30. JEB has already stolen everything of value in Florida....
..well, I take that back.

There's still a few toll roads and a couple of Public Forests he could sell to Dubai.

Or, he could strip the copper plumbing out of the State House in Tallhassee and sell it for scrap.I hear they're getting $10 a pound for copper now....

And you can be sure if it was done on Faux Snooze that the whole thing was scripted.

32. I don't think the Constitution should be amended lightly
but I'm all for an amendment that states that no one descended from Prescott Bush may hold any sort of federal office, ever. It may unfairly punish the one or two family outliers, but I think this clan has done enough harm to the country to warrant extreme measures.

That would end this "dynasty" crap.

38. Jeb Bush would only propagate “Bush crime family” destruction
The American people cannot think of anything more disgusting than Jeb Bush becoming president of the United States. The American people have learned a hard lesson: the American people now know never to vote for someone from the Bush crime family ever again.

Most of the American people were so unwilling to vote for McCain, for one thing, because they were so afraid that McCain would continue the same failed policies of George W. Bush.

Similarly, one would have to be insane to seriously want Jeb Bush to become president. Jeb Bush would only propagate “Bush crime family” destruction.
