JEB BUSH GETS AN ENDORSEMENT … FROM HIS MOMMY
While the GOP frontrunners do battle over the issues, former Florida governor Jeb Bush – who at one point in the 2016 presidential campaign was one of the “Republican” frontrunners – has launched a new video featuring his mother, former first lady Barbara Bush.
“When push comes to shove, people are going to realize Jeb has real solutions,” Bush says of her son. “Rather than talking about how popular they are, how great they are, he’s doing it because he sees a huge need and it’s not being filled by anybody. Of all the people running, he seems to be the one who can solve the problems. I think he’ll be a great president.”
Wow … Bush has his own mother taking thinly-veiled shots at Donald Trump? Jeez …
Sad. Desperate. Pathetic.

Anyway … in addition to her video message, Barbara Bush is sending out copies of a hand-written letter (.pdf here) she wrote about her son’s presidential bid. According to Bush’s campaign, the letter “has been sent out in Iowa and will be sent in New Hampshire and South Carolina as well.”
Interesting …
As we’ve written previously, the Palmetto State’s “Republican” presidential primary features a disproportionate percentage of older voters – which is exactly the sort of demographic that might be more inclined to respond favorably to this sort of communication.
Jeb Bush is making a late play to remain relevant in South Carolina – a state he led at this point last year. According to the latest aggregate polling from Real Clear Politics, he’s currently polling at 10 percent – in fourth place. However, Bush has seen his support tick up modestly over the last two months of campaigning as support for other establishment “Republicans” – notably his former protege Marco Rubio – has fallen.

I’d more likely listen to Barbara’s endorsement than any of the other talking heads, including the “Hockey Mom”. “Sad, pathetic and desperate” maybe but her assessment of Trump is succinct, correct and timely.
“The Quaker Oats man is a loser, with loser sons!”
-Donald Trump
He should have taken mommy’s advice:
Former first lady Barbara Bush has some advice for her son Jeb about running for president: Don’t.
Mrs. Bush told C-SPAN that the country should look to other families beyond “Kennedys, Clintons, Bushes” to take charge of the White House.
“If we can’t find more than two or three families to run for higher office, that’s silly,” she said, “because there are great governors and great eligible people to run.” She added: “There are a lot of ways to serve, and being president is not the only one, and I would hope that someone else would run.”
ROTFLMAO!!!!
Next he will be rolling out his mistress to tell all of us how big of a dick he is
Just a guess, but slighly less than average?
You appear to have a fixation with the male schlong.Call and ask Jeb for a pic to satisfy your curiosity.
Rocky calls his “El Chapo” …
Size apparently doesn’t matter in his world.
Maybe he called it that because it frequently escapes the confines of his zipper. Hell, if that name wasn’t already taken, I’d be inclined to use it for mine.
I had not choice, someone had already taken Zorro.
Use it Fast and Furious!!
He’s a lil flying squirrel,for God’s sake.Leave him alone.
Are you fixated with fixations in general, or just fixations on male schlongs?
What do you think you are, for Chrissake, crazy or somethin’? Well you’re not! You’re not! You’re no crazier than the average asshole out walkin’ around on the streets and that’s it.
I knew McMurphy. McMurphy was a friend of mine, and you (Flip) are no McMurphy.
Although a little electroshock therapy may ease your condition.
They was giving me ten thousand watts a day, you know, and I’m hot to trot! The next woman takes me on’s gonna light up like a pinball machine and pay off in silver dollars!
I saw you were upset about all the new bloggers yesterday.Did you fill your notebook up with their names and take pics of their avatars?
Not upset: just amazed. It was similar to what happens at my backyard birdfeeder sometimes. A whole flock of birds never seen before swoops in, craps all over the place, takes off and are never seen again.
I have a squirrel that comes and hangs upside down from my bird feeder. I call him Tango.
Near the outhouse?
If Rubio’s mistress says it about Jeb, then I’ll be impressed.
Unfortunately, Trump doesn’t rely on his mistresses word. He will tell you himself.
Trump Quotes: “My fingers are long and beautiful, as, it has been well documented, are various other parts of my body”. “If Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her”.

This is better:
We never took our clothes off that first night, but the physical relationship between us progressed much faster than I expected. After sliding the front seats of her SUV as far back as they would go, Nikki climbed on top of me – rubbing her crotch back and forth over the growing bulge in my pants while I groped her ass and ran my hands through her hair and up and down her back.
John Mayer’s “Slow Dancing In a Burning Room” played on her CD changer.
Nikki and I kissed even harder and heavier than we had before (away from the lights of the Vista, we weren’t worried about people seeing us here), and at one point I slid my hands under her turtleneck and felt her breasts over the black bra she was wearing.
It was intense. In fact it was one of the most passionate “eighth-grade make out sessions” I’ve ever experienced in my life. Immediately, it was apparent to both Nikki and I that the sexual chemistry between the two of us was very strong.
Nikki told me that night that she had never been unfaithful to her husband – and that up until that evening she had never so much as kissed another man before.

You reply with fantasy. I’ve got credible media references. Haley denies it. Trump admits it. You have lies. I have admissions. You have nothing but one sick individual. Haley has 81% approval. Fits has just a trashy scandle blog. No candidate will even have a picture taken with Will Folks.
Oh.I see.YOU infer Trump is a pedophile and that is NOT ‘trashy’. Look in the mirror.
I did not infer anything, but you just did. I quoted Trump directly. I leave it to you to make the inferences.
Sure you did.Liberals like you are very thin skinned.You can dish the shit but ya can’t take the shit.
I quoted Will directly and you don’t have to infer anything.
I’ll have some of that.
I’m your Huckleberry.
I’m not backing away from the plate.
Strike 3.Next. :)
Plate? I thought we were talking about food.
Still spouting that 81% approval rating bullshit, I see. Pathetic loser!
The reference to the song and artist playing on her CD cinch it for me. I wonder if the First Cuckold ever verified what was in her CD player.
I’ve had every woman who I’ve ever listened to their CD.
He worked for her you idiot. Why would her music preference be a mystery?
When people are relating a story, something they experienced, they frequently include details of things that stuck in their minds as it was happening. It is an art, maybe a science, when interviewing someone about an incident, to listen for those details or their absence, and do the “math” as to whether or not the details are believable or not.
No. That is cheap dime store paperback writing. If it was true, he would tell the truth that normal people experience in the situations. Like bumping your knee on the steering wheel or York head hiring the cealing. The CD changing songs.
I have made out in a car before. It was nothing like this.
So, did she have that same song playing on the CD player with you, too?
:-D
Different she. Broke the built in cup holder. That’s how the truth sounds.
Oh well, maybe her and Will just weren’t as passionate.
I was to young to be passionate. I was to worried that she would find out that I didn’t know what I was doing.
Astute observation.
For those of us a little older — with longer memories, Trump was obviously still in denial that he was a “short-fingered vulgarian”, a favorite epithet in Spy magazine.

The taxpayer watchdog group Judicial Watch announced Tuesday that it filed suit for the costs of U.S. Secret Service protection of former President Bill Clinton when he rode on convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s private jet, dubbed the “Lolita Express.”
The group filed suit after the Department of Homeland Security failed to comply with a prior Freedom of Information Act request from earlier this year.
According to news reports, the former president took several flights on the jet to the Epstein’s island, and at least on one was accompanied by “4 secret service,” according to a flight logbook first reported on by Gawker.com.

Thanks for all of your hard work getting me elected!
It’s grassroots supporters, like you, that make me look like the only sane option.
Probably can’t get a mistress. His mom will speak to that too.
She thinks George and George W were great presidents. Poor old gal.
W. was.
was is his best quality.
Bam!!!!
The “war on Terra” is the ultimate war, including every nation on earth – it’s perfect.
It is the first and most fundamental justification for government spending. The first and biggest pig at the trough.
It will never end, because NO ONE has defined what surrender terms are, or who surrenders.
The “enemy” doesn’t wear a uniform.
The “enemy” doesn’t have a country.
The “enemy” doesn’t have a leader.
The “enemy” doesn’t have a rank or serial number.
The “enemy” doesn’t have a navy.
The “enemy” doesn’t have an air force.
The “enemy” doesn’t have a central office.
The “enemy” can be 19 people… 10 people… 6 people… or just 1 person.
The “enemy” can be accused without evidence, arrested and held forever.
The “enemy” has no rights.
ANY country is automatically at war if they are accused (without evidence) of harboring “the enemy.”
“Fighting back” means they were the enemy to begin with.
the war on Terra can be financed ad infinitum, because anyone who questions it is “working with the enemy.”
If the people of America want to overthrow the government because it has become a tyranny of the rich – the people are “terrorists” targeted by our military.
The CIA is now authorized to operate on civilians within our borders.
Every American citizen is automatically included as a possible terrorist, and member of “the enemy.”
Well, the real reason that you’ve been sent over here is because they wanted you to be evaluated… to determine whether or not you are mentally ill. This is the real reason. Why do you think they might think that?
oh… I don’t know…
I’m thinking?
Bar, like Trump, is known for telling it like it is. That’s a plus for Jeb. Unfortunately for him, as pointed out below, she’s already weighed in on another Bush presidency.
“As an enticement to vote for her son, Barb will be including a free 8.5 X 11” photo of her meat curtains, suitable for framing “
You just realized they couldn’t fit on that paper size.
Damn! BUSTED!!!!!!!!
RIP
Barbara was always my favorite Bush.
She and Laura are the classiest First Ladies we have had in years.
Alas, I didn’t vote for eithers spouse.
Laura was a ladies’ lady, 1st class. Best since Jackie.
Laura was hot as hell! Wish she was my librarian when I was in school.
We need another Bush or Clinton like we need more Cancer.Both of these are establishment Candidates and just look at where they have taken us.
For the first time I can remember I am having a real battle over who to vote for in the Primary. Up front I would vote for Bernie Sanders before Hillary of Jeb. Big money is now making a mover for Jeb along with the so Conservative Magazines and of course they are run by Republican Money like the Mainstream Media is for Hillary.
Folks we need a real meeting of the minds and look at our dire position objectively if it is possible now.
In Obama’s first win I spoke often of the importance of beating him because of what I thought was the biggest concern and that concern today is the same. The next President will appoint several US Supreme Court members and so goes the courts so go America.Think about it!
Barbara Bush is a horrible person.
Babs Bush is so obnoxious the Devil wants her to live forever.
Barbara Bush is one of most gracious ladies I have ever met. Her husband, being a Neo-Keynesian, put the country back on the wrong monetary track, mirroring most of the presidents of the 20th Century – Dem & Rep. But I liked him. He is, even at this age, loyal to his friends and a man of his word. Jeb is also a good man, but we cannot and should not tolerate an inherited monarchy. That goes for Hillary, as well.
