Jeb Bush's son chides Gov. Crist for seeking stimulus
The Associated Press
February 22, 2009

ORLANDO - George P. Bush may not be ready to follow his father, grandfather and uncle into politics just yet, but he is trying to help the Republican Party regain a conservative message, which on Saturday included criticism of Florida Gov. Charlie Crist.

Bush, the son of former Gov. Jeb Bush, grandson of former President George H.W. Bush and nephew of former President George W. Bush, addressed a national conference of young Republicans and told them there is a rift in the party between fiscal conservatives and what he calls "D light" -- Republicans trying to appeal to the political middle.

"There's some in our party that want to assume that government is the answer to all of our problems," Bush said. "I'm not going to name any names." "You know who I'm talking about," Bush said, as the crowd attending the Young Republican National Federation murmured and laughed a little tensely. "That's problematic. We as conservatives have to ultimately balance the federal government's checkbook."

Bush, 32, lives in Texas and works as a partner in a real-estate-investment firm. He married in August 2004 and joined the Navy Reserves two years ago. He said he would like to start a family. In the meantime, he'll continue to raise money for candidates and help promote the party message, but he said family and a career are his main focus.

This criminal punk never worked a day in his life and he's got a platform to shoot off his mouth.
:puke:
Very appropriate comment, "He should shut his pie hole and go back and get in his Mercedes and drive to his tee time."

32. Actually customs caught her...
She was trying to smuggle in clothes from her shopping trip to Paris and claimed they were all "old clothes." So maybe Chanel has a "resale" shop for "trade-ins?" Jeb of course thought it was funny. And of course very quickly wrote a check for the duty and the fines.

Edited on Sun Feb-22-09 02:15 PM by No Elephants
writing a check gets her off the hook for perjury? Gee, if only Clinton had known that, we could have avoided putting the nation through the expense and trauma of impeachment. A Bush kid is smarter than the Rhodes Scholar. Who knew?

I have a feeling just writing a check would not get me off the hook for perjury. How about you?

61. But Clinton was still a Democrat...
If he'd been a Republican, well, as Kay Bailey Hutchison, the darling of many Democratic women in Texas because she's "one of them" which calls into question what exactly they are, would put it "Democrats commit crimes, Republicans commit technicalities."

Of course at this point Bill Clinton is a Republicrat so no one would ask the question to begin with. I suspect Scooter Libby is a Republicrat as well. Sometimes the easiest way to "convert" someone is to indict them. Or impeach them. It not only converts them it shuts them up. Along with the checks that start pouring into the coffers.

Some still might ask the question. But Republicrats follow the example of George HW Bush one afternoon in Kennebunkport when someone asked a question about Iran-Contra and he just walked away.

Some Republicans believe they are above the law and freely admit it and some Democrats would like to believe they are above the law but would never admit it.

Republicrats know they are above the law. While playing everyone in their "declared" party for fools.

51. For one thing, we did not riot when Reagan got elected or re-elected, nor when
41 used Atwater's dirty tricks against Dukakis, one of the most decent politicians on the planet. nor when Bush 43 stole two elections, nor when lobbyists started taking over the government during the first Reagan admin.

And we're still too passive.

We're still too partisan and too divided. Divide and conquer. And we have been conquered.

?

And we have been blinded as well. We cannot see the forest for the trees. Or the Clintons for the Bushes. Or the Bushes for the Clintons. We have one dynasty. And one party that serves it.

Democrats complain about the DINOs but don't notice the RINOs. Republicans complain about the RINOs but don't notice the DINOs.

The American people, Democrats and Republicans, are a little slow as they say. And perhaps a little stupid.

9. THIS George P Bush?
http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/georgep1.html


Here's a few things:
1) George P. Bush might be a hunkalicious young Republican, but he still seems a bit creepy. So TSG wasn't too surprised to learn that "P" was involved in a troubling 1994 incident described in this Metro-Dade Police Department report. On December 31, 1994, Bush showed up at 4 AM at the Miami home of a former girlfriend. He proceeded to break into the house via the woman's bedroom window, and then began arguing with his ex's father. Bush, then a Rice University student, soon fled the scene. But he returned 20 minutes later to drive his Ford Explorer across the home's front lawn, leaving wide swaths of burned grass in his wake. Young Bush avoided arrest when the victims declined to press charges.


And of course, he gladly went to war to fight Unka Dubya's War....no, wait, he didn't!

What a surprise. Or not!

35. Jeb probably pulled out the checkbook...
Rumor is he has "stimulated" the economy in Florida quite a bit through the years by pulling out the checkbook the way his father has - making sure the law doesn't apply to the Bushes. Nothing shuts the victims up like a nice big check. Or keeps law enforcement at bay. The motto of Jeb Bush according to some is "a check a day keeps the cops away."

Edited on Sun Feb-22-09 01:11 PM by Baby Snooks
They have remained in power. They are like the Mafia in New York - you cannot do business in this country without dealing with the Bushes either directly or indirectly. They are, as Kitty Kelley tagged them, simply The Family. Even the Mafia fears them which is why as we saw with Rudy Guiliaini even the Mafia serves them.

And why so many of the policies of the Obama administration are simply a continuation of the Bush policies. The interests of the Bushes are what are really being served - not the interests of the American people.

Impeachment was "off the table" because it is the Bushes' table. And has been since November of 1980 when the American people unwittingly voted for a shadow president who pulled a "coup d'etat" without anyone noticing and installed a shadow government.

34. Hopefully the "W" will have effectively closed off any political............
.......aspirations for any more of that severely dysfunctional family. The so called "conservative agenda" is dying little by little and has taken a decidedly more marginal look since Obama has been elected. Lets hope (and help it along in a big way) that this "conservative" generation is over and goes back to the extremist margins of society where we all can agree it belongs.

Edited on Sun Feb-22-09 02:11 PM by Baby Snooks
The Republicans for the most part have found corruption serves them well and many are finding the corruption of the Bushes is still serving them well and so they will vote for the corruption and of course will vote for the most corrupt and the most corrupt will always be a Bush.

A growing number of Republicans like the new Republicrat Party and support it. As do a growing number of Democrats. Money, after all, is all. There really isn't anything wrong with "by hook or by crook" as long as you have the money to get away with it. That is the new American ethos.

The corruption in both parties produced the one party. I see absolutely nothing in what Congress has passed in terms of "stimulating" the economy that will "stimulate" anything but the economy of the Republicrats and their oligarchy.

As for everyone else, well, the only Democrats and Republicans are the fools who believe there are Democrats and Republicans on the ballot.

And the Republican fools will of course vote for a Bush just simply because of the (R) beside the name. The way the Democratic fools do. Not realizing they are voting for a Republicrat.

The Republicrat Party is the party that Prescott Bush and the others would have formed had they pulled a "coup d'etat" in the 1930s.

It is the party George HW Bush formed when he pulled a "coup d'etat" 50 years later.

?
What worries me is that at some point the photo will include Barack Obama.

63. It's a shame the father of the former girflfiend didn't shoot him....
Edited on Sun Feb-22-09 03:44 PM by Baby Snooks
Of course the Bushes would have had the father killed when he wasn't charged. Had this happened in Texas, the father probably would have shot him. Of course in Texas, the father would have then been charged with capital murder and sentenced to death by lethal injection and that of course is why Texas has become the "home base" for the Bushes and their crime syndicate. In Texas you really do have to worry about "men in black" and about a seemingly sweet little white-haired lady who would run you over in a parking lot and call 911 and report having run over someone and simply request someone remove them. Which someone would. And which no doubt would be listed as a hit-and-run that no one witnessed. And believe me when I say no one would have witnessed it. No one at least would admit they had.

"Don't mess with Texas" the signs on our highways warn those who are tempted to litter. Texans have learned not to mess with the Bushes.

62. Ah, the Stalker-Vandal speaks (well, the stalker-vandal whose deeds were covered up
because his name is Bush)

65. That's our future murderous Caligula. Make book on it.
Edited on Sun Feb-22-09 05:33 PM by tom_paine
Even IF the Bushies skip Emperor Jeb, which I seriously doubt they will. Why bother? Absent the pressures of pain and agony of potential resistance from the American Subject Populace, had the Bushies stolen a 3rd straight Imperial Election, why bother?

They know that, so long as they don't do too much at once and risk waking the sheep (and they have the greatest Propaganda Machine that human minds have ever devised to calm and a psychopharmacopia that one-third of the citizns are taking that makes them docile in the extreme), the Bushies can do ANYTHING they want whenever they want.

Obama, it is quite clear now, is going to let them get away...vvvvvveeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrryyyyyy ssssssssssllllllllllllllooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwllllllllllllllllllyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.
The media has not substantially changed. The Congressional Democratic Leadership has not substantially changed from their disgraceful toadying. Obama's post-patrisanship is as laughable as it is naive.

But before I go too far. Maybe Obama's Double-Secret Keep the Powder Dry Plan will work THIS time. Keeping those 51 Bushie US Attroneys in place was sheer genius, right?

Maybe we can turn this thing around.

:rofl:

66. Yet *another* reason why the Shrubhole must be brought to justice for his numerous crimes.
If Poppy had been properly prosecuted in the late '80s, we may very well never have had to suffer through his rotten spawn's administration later...:patriot:

69. I swear to God, Florida if you elect
another Bush, you are getting kicked out of the Union.
