The Bushies seem to be pushing George P. Bush
George P. the son of Gov. Jeb seems to be a rising star in the Republican party--at least that seems to be what the family wants. Why is George P. Bush speaking at the convention? he also spoke in 2000. In 2000, the reason was because he was young and good looking and they thought he would appeal to young female voters. But what does he really have to say? Can this young man convincingly speak to this country about why it is so important what his uncle Chimpy is doing in Iraq? If he really thinks so he should show the ultimate support for the Iraqi war and enlist, and then request being sent to Iraq. I understand they need more troops over there. If he spoke to the convention and said, "I will enlist and serve in Iraq" I would at least respect the guy. But if he flashes a big grin and starts talking about all the chimp is doing to protect the world and then goes back to his sheltered rich life and lifestyle--who the hell cares what he has to say?

The Bush family seem to be expecting this young man to go places. George P. will be out there campaigning on college campuses this fall too. But if he really wants to make a statement about the Chimp's re-selection he should do the honorable thing and enlist. Any young man or woman of draft age who supports this war but doesn't back it up by enlisting to serve doesn't have my respect. They are the ultimate chicken hawks--supporting a war, but expecting others to go over and die.

1. I think one reason is that his last name is Bush.
I do agree with Kevin Phillips when he said that the Bush family has dynastic intentions. And George P. is, to them, the next level.

2. Now, was he the one caught having sex in a SUV
or the one that trashed up his ex-girlfriend's apartment. I can't keep Jeb's kids straight. Except for Noel the crack addict.

Run for office and get us into another war where they don't have to fight.

7. We start now
to stop him he is part of a dynasty that must be crushed! We know now what this family is all about we will have no excuse if he is allowed to rise to power.
We know this family works against democracy they have proved it over and over no sympathy for George P. Sorry people no bleeding heart from me he must be watched everything he does should be recorded and reported. We know we can not count on the corporate media to do it for us we must keep a vigilant eye on George P. Never Again!

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. (3 pages) </snip>
