Jeb regarding Harris nomination: "Sure. If there's no one else filing"

http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/news/14550505.htm

<snip>

Bush said he was disappointed and agreed to support Harris, but suggested she still may not be the nominee. ''I'm going to support the Republican nominee, if she is the nominee,'' Bush said. ``Sure. If there's no one else filing, she will get the support of all God-fearing Republicans.''

1. "...all God-fearing Republicans" -- of which there are too many in Florida
--I am still waiting for tomorrow's deadline.

I thought they'd issue a summons to St. Petersburg Mayor Rick Baker. An old Bush crony and REAL conservative, too. Seems like just the guy they'd turn to to try and undo Harris.

2. "Would you sleep with her, Jeb?"
Edited on Thu May-11-06 08:51 AM by tanyev
"Sure, if there was no other woman left in the bar at closing time."


Why is she so desperate to hang on to people who want nothing to do with her? She's got something in common with the Log Cabin Republicans.

4. "...all God-fearing Republicans."
Maybe he really meant: "This chick has the goods on us, so yeah I'll support her because if I don't my brother and I will have hell to pay."

5. "God-fearing Republicans" ???
Guess that says it all...they "fear" God. I'm not incredibly religious, but I always thought that the first priority in a spiritual relationship with a diety was love, not fear...

6. That's a hell of an endorsement
Kind of like the head of the puke party in PA urging pukes to hold their noses and vote for satanorum anyway.

8. So much for thinking she shouldn't run again
Jebby said he didn't think she should run again. Apparently he's taking it back. Indian giver. Haha-
You know what, maybe its a blessing in disguise. No one likes Katherine, maybe the republicans that don't have their privates tied to the party line will vote democratic this year.

10. Further proof that Rove has jumped the shark...
he would have had this little mess cleaned up long ago if he was on top of his game.

13. Just saw one of the tv ads for her for the 5th time this am.
Voice over says “Capable accomplished and tested by fire”

With each word a picture of her in a scene is flashed.

Tested by fire is teamed with her and a picture of Alan Colmes.

Cracks me up every time…You go Kat..

14. Equating tested by fire by getting softball questions from Colmes
Is about equal to passing your hand really fast through a candle's flame.

15. "God fearing" Repukes. This dude is WORSE than Shrub
Jeb Crow Shrub actually believes-------well, he SAYS--------that La Virgen de Guadalupe delivered Florida to Shrub in 2000 because December 12 is the church's feast day for her and that is the day the SCOTUS edict was handed down.

Since Jeb Crow Shrub KNOWS who actually delivered Florida, this shows what a cynical scumbag he is: It's all about Jeb/Spanish-speaker, Mexican wife, Catholicism--------and firing up the most gullible among Hispanic voters. PIECE OF SHIT!!!!!!!!!

16. I think that means he is going to run


Watch....
They are slick.

Chimp says he should run for Pres, they check the reaction and wait
So now, when Jeb announces for Senator, he can get THAT vote from the Repubs in Flroida.
