It's too early for credible predictions... but if Jeb goes for the Rep nomination in 2012 who would beat him? Jindal? Romney? Palin?

Or, to put it another way, would you bet against him right now?

Yes, in fact Hell YES!

"Former President George H.W. Bush said....."

Well earned RESPONSE

After seeing Hillary make a showing I would have no doubt people are just so stupid as to elect Jeb.

Not that HW's a bad guy, just the idea of America electing another Bush in the next 200 years....

If you want a new recession pick a Bush
If you want another moron pick a Bush
The daddy wasn't bad, but his son was really sad
If you want the same old same old pick a Bush

And here the righties have been complaining about "Dynasties" because Caroline Kennedy MIGHT be appointed to Hillary's Senate seat.


Now that's ironic Hypocrisy.

Texas in General-and the Bush family in particular-should be forever banned from the White House.

I see da bOoB has an ally in his quest for dividing America and excluding those with whom he doesn't agree. Voters be damned

That brings the population of bOoBistan to 2.

Palin and Jeb in 2012!

Except that the Bush family may call texas home, but they're from one of those liberal states up north.

If we keep electing members of the Bush family probability dictates we will eventually find a decent one. Right?

Dear George.

Shut the fuck up, you son of a Nazi. Fucking die already.

"Voters be damned"

That's what "W" said in 2000. Oh, a million or so voters don't matter to you, do they, Goatscum?

Fuck off, lightweight. Find a blog where 11 year olds rule and you can look important.

anything is possible, Johnny!

If your party is stupid enough to nominate a Bush I say enjoy 8 years of Obama. People don't want another Bush.

A very intellectual response.

Is there a relevant message hidden in there somewhere that addresses my post?

Fuck off, lightweight. Find a blog where 11 year olds rule and you can look important.

You mean one where name calling is the best retort?

Looks like I've found it as long as you are still posting here.

Wow - your ignorance and partisan shrillery is showing again. Both Dwight D. Eisenhower and Lyndon B. Johnson (a Dem!) were Texans; where would we be without both of those people?

Oh, and Bush 43 was actually born in Connecticut - yep, that liberal bastion of a state. Jeb running for Pres in 2012 would be a mistake and a disservice to the country, but making yourself look like an idiot in a futile stab at Texas doesn't do you any favors either.

Our economy is in a depression brought on in large part due to the actions of Reagan, Bush 1 and Bush 2 and this arrogant, irresponsible old man thinks another of his arrogant, born with a silver spoon in his mouth, sons should be president or even Senator....hopefully America is realizing just how evil these people really are.
BTW Jeb should be hounded with reminders that he is one of the signatories of PNAC and is a NEOFUCKINGCON.

....Bush for President.....

...ha ha ha ha ha ha .........the brand has been terminally tainted......

Bush 41: Jeb Bush for President

Uhmmm... no, thank you.

Jeb is the real PNAC brain in the family. He wouldn't need a Cheney to lead him and us around by the nose.

That said, compared to his big brother, he's far more eloquent and Dem's would be foolish to write off his chances.

The neocons have infinite faith that they can package, market and sell anyone to the public.

Yes, even another Bush.

Sad as it may be, history has proven them to be correct. We'll buy anything if the package is pretty enough.

There's not a doubt in my mind that we'll be hearing all kinds of nice things about Brother JEB over the next four years as he inches his way to the presidency.

That reminds me of ... ooh! something shiny!

That reminds me of ...ooh! Sarah Palin!

Given a little more time, the neocons would have turned that ticket around to PALIN/McCain.

Or, to put it another way, would you bet against him right now?

Yes. The Bush name is in the crapper. Republicans will be afraid of it.

I think that's a misunderestimation right there.

If I was gonna vote for Hope and Change, change I could believe in, I'd vote for Jeb. I would hope he'd pick Rice for State, Rumsfeld for Defense, Mukasey for AG....lotsa change...like now.

Yes. The Bush name is in the crapper. Republicans will be afraid of it.

I say he runs for Mel's seat and wins. Remember, it's Florida.

You would think so but it had no effect on Hillary.

"You would think so but it had no effect on Hillary."

Lord, deliver us from the Clintons, Kennedys, Bushes....and a host of other political dynasties. It is my prayer that you strike all of them infertile and prevent them from adopting.

The Clintons are far better the traitorous Bush clan. No comparison at all.

who the republicans put up in 2012 will depend entirely on how well the first 2 obamma years go.
if its a fiasco, Bush/Palin stickers will abound.

if not...
look to another elderly senator who has always had dreams of the office (dole, mccain)

the bush family is not foolish (the family not the individual man we had as Prez the last 8 years) they will not place themselves in a position that gives them an opportunity to loose again.

:)

Well there is a comparison I guess--Bush was the giver blowjobs instead of receiving---and Clinton liked women.

Quit projecting your sexuality onto Bush.

Oh and the clintons dont really count as a dynasty yet..

their children and grand children have yet to be elected to anything yet.

Just think!
In 2016 Chelsea will be old enough to be VP.
We could have the first Mother Daughter ticket!!

That's an ugly thought.....

"Remember, it's Florida."

Yep, there are plenty of morons who will happily vote for the ex-governor who was firmly against paper trails on elections. They are such morons they don't even question why.

"And here the righties have been complaining about "Dynasties" because Caroline Kennedy MIGHT be appointed to Hillary's Senate seat." #8 | Posted by frankf55


The righties are not complaining, just laughing while some on the left complains. Lefties spit out Palin is doesn't have the experience yet they elect Obama, almost Hillary, and entertain Kennedy.

Now THAT is ironic and idiotic hypocrisy.

People like Danni are rather sad and pathetic.
I love how she declares someone a moron because they do not agree with her "prop up the weak" ideology. The ocean is full of bottonfeeders and that eat the shit of the big fish

We could have the first Mother Daughter ticket!!


#37 | Posted by Valisk


They could run on the "We both hate Bill" theme.

"And here the righties have been complaining about "Dynasties" because Caroline Kennedy MIGHT be appointed to Hillary's Senate seat."

This will probaly come as a shock to you, but her uncle has been an influencial senator for decades, and then, of course there's Robert Kennedy, Jr......

Dude, it is just a dad, that would love for his kid to be President. I am sure some of you would love for your dumbass kids to be President as well. We don't hold that against you.

You must think Jeff Gannon spent all those nights at the White House baking cookies. That Bush likes men is no secret. He was our first bisexual President. I wonder what his childhood was like, seeing as how his Father--our first pedophile President--liked little boys so much.

Nice to know the Bush Doctrine:

Blame it on the New York Times!

You have to have a little sympathy for the old guy, however - imagine living with Barbara, not to mention having those children you are so proud of.

The real problem is GHW should never have made it to the White House, either. Those neo-cons put him there.

Ah Obama?

You said nothing about lies..you said packaging. If "Change we can belive in" is not a package that does not mean a damn thing I don't know what is. Mr. Obama what is your position on (insert whatever question you can come up with)?" Answer: I belive in change that we can hope for, and hope that we can count on. You know in general, change that we can belive in" Packaging to the extreame...

Charge Senior with treason for trading missiles for hostages behind Carter's back.

Send Shrub to the Hague for war crimes.

Charge Jeb with Securities Fraud for peddling $850 million in worthless Lehman Bros Stock to his former employees.

Charge Neil with bribery and failure to exercise his fiduciary responsibilities as a board member of Silverado Savings and Loan. Impound the Denver home he was given in the quid pro quo deal which benefited his immediate bosses and cost taxpayers a cool billion.

You are just grasping now. Please have something to say if you are going to post. You have no idea what I did or did not do. I am not an Obama hater, and I do not disagree with some of the things you said about repubs, just be honest and admit Obama is nothing but spit polish so far. Very nice to look at and hear, but nothing of substance to this point. Nothing but package, they sold the sizzle not the steak.

Exactly like that. Obama and Palin are very comparable.

CV,

One of the very first things Jeb did after leaving his Governorship, was to put on his lawyer hat and dump $850 million in worthless Lehman Bros Stock on the Florida State Employees Pension Fund. This bought Lehman some time but they went bellyup anyway. Every one at the top got rich while the company failed, including Jeb.


Dear George.


Shut the fuck up, you son of a Nazi. Fucking die already.

reminds me of what I just heard from rush

he spelled out myths of liberals and liberalism


comapssionate....yeah just read here


smarter than everyone else

yeah right...just read this garbage


41 showed true class just like his son time after time after time when faced with the liberal attacks from the left and the media and your problem is you wouldnt know a classy statesman if you met one.


rush also played tapes of caroline saying 'you know' at least 30 times in one speech and the messiah tape of him saying....uh...uh...well..uh..
.er...you see.......uh

just imagine this coming from a republican and it would make lettermans presidential speechs bit hall of fame.........of course you wont hear a single fuckin word about THESE two from that washed up comedy hack, now will you.

It would be hard for me to take advice from a low-down SOB like Daddy Bush -- who bailed out of his airplane and left his two crewmen to die -- who has reared such ignorant kids.


**** Obama's meessage was "God Damn America"

........Fairness Doctrine.........

....Caroline Kennedy should NOT be appointed to the Senate......

........she has never been elected to anything, and there is no reason to think that she could ever win an election........

.....I view her to be as dumb and idiotic as Sarah Palin......but in the interests of fairness......Palin got herself elected to three positions......Municipal Councilor, Mayor and Governor..........

........so while I may consider Palin to be a turd, I would rather live with an elected turd, than the scion of privilege from a family whom I generally (but not specifically) admire......

Certainly not a stand up guy like that great Father and racketeer, Joe Kennedy.

BL2,

Was it classy of 41 to split $250 billion in kickbacks with Saddam Hussein before they killed him? This information was revealed during BCCI Bankruptcy Hearings in Chicago. BCCI was the money laundering agent, working in violation of the embargo. 41 then "somehow" managed to get the hearings closed and classified secret. Dangerous, not classy.

**** what lies have been told about Obama that got him elected?

........I was told I was getting a Cadillac Escalade if I voted Obama........

......forest green with a fluffy zebra stripe interior.......

There's a better chance that a third Adams will be president.

That's all the reps need now, another rich kid that can't control a pocketbook.

#69 | Posted by skizziks at 2009


ah good one...more humor when thats all youve got left...............hee hee


and of course none of you bush haters will even bring up the family history of the kennedys now will you...

I stare with a look of disbelief every time I've caught Daddy Bush on tv these last few days whining and wishing about how his other evil spawn -- Jeb Bush -- would make a good President for this country.

I just put it down to the musings and apparent beginning dementia of an elderly man who apparently doesn't have a clue as to how toxic the name "Bush" now is to 76% of Americans. Jeb Bush will be lucky if he can be elected dog catcher in Florida let alone Senator.

It will take more than three generations of new Administrations for our nation to recover from the Presidency of Daddy Bush's other son -- George W. Bush.

Just heard this morning two million jobs were lost in just the last year alone. One could go on forever, but there's not enough bandwidth in cyberspace to list all the trouble, ills, pain, lies, corruption, and destruction inflicted upon our country by the GWB presidency.

The word "Bush" now ranks right up there with all the other four-lettered cuss words.





"and of course none of you bush haters will even bring up the family history of the kennedys now will you..."

Which depression did they cause??

Jeb will find it tough going until the Bush Depression is finally over. WEre I him, I'd lay low for a few decades.

What depression???
Only the lazy can't find a job.

"Only the lazy can't find a job."

Good to know that someone is following through on their New Year's resolution for introspection.

Actually, you might want to check out Frontlines Boogeyman Lee Atwater episode. Not so "ignorant", but quite knowingly political lairs and war profiteers. Sterilization is too good.

As much as George likes to suck cock (explains Gannons WH overnighters to a 'T'), Jeb is truly a cock-sucker and PNAC piece of shit.

He'll prolly run with Sarah, as a few smarties have already predicted. But as I also predict, a fatal golf cart accident can do wonders..

There are two things working against Jeb Bush's chances for the nomination and they are Bush 41 and Bush 43.

All I can say is I hope not. We learned enough of how the first two tore down this country.

Just think . . . if JEB is president his wife can smuggle all the jewelry she wants into the United States and his kids can all go to secret rehab centers.

Wotta country, huh?

No More Bush-Inc
What is happening in Florida? Is anyone paying any attention down there? I just read that on Fox News Sunday that past President, George H. Bush, thinks that it would be good for all Americans if his other son, the former Governor of Florida, was President of the United States one day. Do any of you people get out? Florida, let me stir your kettle-of-fish with the femur-bone of reality.
"W" just successfully closed the longest-running, most-expensive frat party in the history of the world. It was so messy afterwards that they had to hire a janitor, Barac Obama, to clean up afterwards. Now the younger Bush-brother, not to be out-done, wants to book the Whitehouse for his frat pals in eight-years.
Florida, this is where you need to pay close attention. The Senate Seat that will be vacated by the Republican, Mel Martinez, is no accident. It's a void-of-convenience for Bush, Inc. Mel is leaving it because he has been paid handsomely to step aside so Jeb can do Florida a favor. Jeb, won't do Florida any favors.
Jeb has already used Florida as a doormat to acquire untold wealth and get his brother elected. After his term as Governor was up, he took his vastly accumulated wealth from Florida's development lobbyist back to Texas in a tractor-trailer. These same lobbyists are the ones that are responsible for turning the "Rainbow Rivera," a once flourishing, proud south Florida community, into the "Repo Riviera." Now, Jeb plans to use Florida as a condom to commit rape on Lady Liberty. Do the Bushes have no shame? Is anyone in Florida using his/her top three inches?
Florida has always considered itself a "politically progressive state." To that point, I have a progressive idea. Let's "out-source" the soon to be vacant Senate Seat of Mel Martinez. "What do I mean by out-source?" you ask. If you haven't been paying attention, let me fill you in on a frightening trend here in America. It's called out-sourcing and politicians think it's the best thing since no-term-limits. Let's do unto them what they have been doing to the working class for decades. Let's find someone over in India, Pakistan, or maybe even Mexico to sit in a "Virtual-Senate-Seat." This Virtual-Senator couldn't possibly be any more corrupt than an actual Senator. We can save millions by just letting the "Senator" telecommunicate from whatever country he's in. Just think of the overhead we could save on perks alone. As a bonus, we could lease out the office space in the capital building and make enough money to pay the Senator's salary, costing the people of Florida nothing out-of-pocket. When you consider that our Representatives only work 72-days-a-year, we may even clear a profit. Now, that's what I call progressive political thinking and an idea whose time has come. While we're on the subject of out-sourcing, let's start a new political party, a grassroots movement if you will. We'll call it the "Out-Source Party."


Just think . . . if JEB is president his wife can smuggle all the jewelry she wants into the United States and his kids can all go to secret rehab centers.


Wotta country, huh?


I agree and if hillary were president just think about all the tail that bill could get.

OOPS wait....he already cheats on his wife, but isnt it good to know that I can STILL take any thread to that area......I am sort of the jonathon winters of the retort..........LOL

just remembered also that 41 said that he would tell obama that he was "HIS PRESIDENT" and he wished him all the best.

what a different idea this is compared to the last 8 years of dems attacking and name calling and bullshit about the election of 2000 and all that.
