What I think is remarkable (or maybe not) is that Jeb trotted out this chestnut:

Quote:
That's not to say that the world is safer because Saddam Hussein is gone. It is significantly safer.
Which is completely and undeniably UNTRUE.

Full on hawk? Give me a break. That is not to say that he hasn't shifted his rhetoric but he is still the most non-interventionist candidate running other than maybe Bernie Sanders. If he is such a hawk why do the hawks attack him daily?

Bernie isnt running as a republican is he? Ohio and I were looking at the GOP candidates. Paul is still the closest but did he negate his more libertarian oriented youth base with his shift for his national platform?

Jeb is jumping all over on invading Iraq. Double-speak, triple speak. Not fit to be president.

Jeb screwed the pooch with his "Yes, Maybe, No", Iraqi War trilogy.

Put in perspective, it might hurt him for a couple of weeks or months, whereas With Hillary, Iraq will hurt her all the way up to 2016 as a campaign issue. After all, She approved it and authorized it from the start.

Then again, it could be Jeb Bush's "47% don't pay taxes", moment and he's out of the race faster than good ole Freddy Dalton Thompson.

Jeb is a joke. Most Republicans agree. He had three answers to the question Fox News asked the first time. He gets defensive when asked about his brother. Wonder why?

Yeah, we get it. But that spaghetti will stick to the wall for only so long; Realistically speaking. Just some bad comments on a war he had nothing to do with.
Iraq is listed as part of Hillary's resume. It will hurt her much more

What say you?

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush declared Wednesday that 11 million immigrants in the country illegally should have an opportunity to stay, wading yet again into his party's contentious immigrant debate.
"We're a nation of immigrants," Bush said at the National Christian Hispanic Leadership Conference that brought several hundred Hispanic evangelical leaders to Houston this week. "This is not the time to abandon something that makes us special and unique." A successful immigration overhaul is more than simply strengthening the border, Bush said, referring to "11 million people that should come out from the shadows and receive earned legal status."


Jeb Bush: Give 11 Million Immigrants A Chance To Stay
He is coming off like an exploding tomato: And his recent comment about "mistakes" that everyone makes, except maybe someone from 2000 years ago, is just plain weird and bushomaniac.

The only thing Jeb can possibly "handle" now, is that he is just as much the idiot as his brother

Maybe he has been taking explaining lessons from his Bro or the Mittster? Perhaps they should opt for Cruz...
