Jeb Bush Hires CTO Who CALLS WOMEN 'SLUTS'




If you're running a campaign you hope to ultimately be against a woman, Ethan Czahor might not want to be the guy you hire for digital operations. Right after the announcement was made that Czahor would be joining Jeb Bush's campaign as digital director, some of his tweets started disappearing. Like these, calling women 'sluts':




















Czahor's activism goes back a ways. In 2007, while he was still in college, he launched a website attacking Rosie O'Donnell trying to get her knocked off The View. Ironically, the guy who claims James O'Keefe as a pal was upset about "unbalanced opinions" on television.


Jeb is unfazed.


“Governor Bush believes the comments were inappropriate,” a Bush spokesman told BuzzFeed News. “They have been deleted at our request. Ethan is a great talent in the tech world and we are very excited to have him on board the Right to Rise PAC.”


Which tells you all you need to know about the values of the so-called "family values" party.

Like all right wingers, this guy is just not funny. But this is what passes for humor to those on the right.

Right wingers have no choice but to use "punch down" humor, because they think they are God's gift to humanity, and there are no better people on the planet, and nobody is more deserving of success with minimal effort.

It's a rough existence, requiring an unbelievable amount of self-deception.

They always have to make "jokes" about people that have been oppressed, people that are poor, people that have no power, and so on. They never ever attack the ruling class.

And the one about the science majors being ugly, what an idiotic and archaic thing to say, even if he was trying to be funny, key word being trying.

His staff apparently doesn't know how to vet people or know the need to cut losses sooner rather than later. Misstep on Jebbie's part which does not bode well for his campaign.

But do you really want a CTO who isn't knowledgeable enough about the Internet to realize that you really can't delete things from the internet, especially if you're doing it after doing something high profile like taking the CTO job for a potential presidential campaign?
