Oh Sweet Jeebus is it seriously going to be Jeb?

I know that a couple crazies will use the primary season as an excuse to sell a few books to the stupid masses (see Ben Carson), but is the frontrunner for the nomination already Jeb Bush?

That we'd even entertain the notion of another member from the womb of doom getting the chance to run this country makes me cry a little bit inside. Jeb will sell everything to his cronies at bargain basement prices then turn them loose on us. Public schools will be sold to corporations and only the privileged will be allowed to go to school to learn to read, while the rest of our kids will learn to operate the french fry machine at vo-tech schools sponsored by McDonalds. He'll sell the plumbing fixtures out of the White House.

Is Jeb all they seriously have left? How can a party have control of Congress with no more viable candidates than that guy?

So here's Jeb.

His wife can never be a first lady. JEB's wife lied to the feds about 20K in purchases she was bringing back into the U.S. from Paris. Jeb's been a big philanderer. Two of his children have been in the news in the past years for arrests linked to drug problems, public intoxication, and sex in public. (don't confuse the W's kids).

Then there is the family issue of robbing banks. One, the Silverado Savings and Loan, several ways into which many in the Bush family were involved, and also many politicians still in office today. Jeb, George Sr., and his son Neil Bush have all been implicated in the Savings and Loan Scandal, which cost American tax payers over $1.4 TRILLION dollars, one quarter of our national debt. One brother also thinks it's polite to take up the Asian hookers when presented.

Their grandfather worked for Hilter, and HW lied about working for the CIA. We were to believe this when he was chosen to head the CIA agency?

The entire family has been an "AMERICAN DISASTER'.

Then there is Jeb's Nigerian water pump bribery scandal back in the courts, just last year! Illegal immigration is an "act of love". (Just today, it's reported he now says Obama went to far with his order on immigration)

Let us not forget that Jeb Bush defaulted on a $4.56 million dollar loan from the Broward Federal Savings in Sunrise, FL. After federal regulators closed the S&L, the office building that Jeb used the $4.56 million to finance was reappraised by the regulators at $500,000.00, which Bush and his partners paid. The taxpayers had to pay back the remaining 4 million plus dollars, as in the past.

This family robs banks and created a drug war to run drugs. Just read Barry and the Boys. Barry Seal flew planes for the CIA and ran drugs for HW and a few others.

So spare me if I'm a little sad to even THINK ABOUT ANOTHER BUSH RUNNING! ARE YOU KIDDING ME? US?

Must we put ourselves through this again? Or will the voting machines Jeb ushered in do it for us? Count on that, because the laws will not allow you to count ballots!

A mere coincidence, of course, that it would play a pivotal role in giving the presidency to his brother.

Seriously, if he does run and get the nomination, I have little doubt that he'll win (either legitimately or otherwise).

The Bushes have done a very thorough job of rigging the game in their favor since Poppy blew it in '92.

want another Bush either! But we MUST have somewhere for them to go. To Clinton, is not going to work.

This is the story of Charlie Crist in Florida. Scott won, so will JEB. JEB will win because we will not have anywhere for them to go. They will not vote for Hillary!

Everyone bookmark this for after the election, and read this again, if JEB runs against Hillary.

the real rulers of this country do whatever they want, and the President tries not to get killed.

Unless it's a Bush. They are Blood of the Actual US Monarchs. The PTB is contented with a Bush, he's in the Family. They know there will be no trouble.

And we don't want an un-contented PTB. Then people die.

Think I'm crazy? Read this:

One of Lawrence E. King’s pedophilic customers was Vice President George Herbert Walker Bush. Other high profile people involved were Harold Andersen, a good friend of Bush’s, CFR member and the publisher of the Omaha World Herald. Andersen in particular was a very nasty pedophile who would have sex with 12 year old boys (see victim Paul Bonacci). Paul Bonacci, an abused teenaged prostitute, was also pimped out 3 times to Democratic Rep. Barney Frank. Paul Bonacci has said that every time he sees Barney Frank on TV he feels like he wants to vomit.

Pappy Bush

Paul M. Rodriguez and George Archibald reported, on June 29 1989, the Washington Times’ reported that a Washington D.C. prostitution ring that had intimate connections with the White House all the way up to President George H.W. Bush. Male prostitutes had been given access to the White House and the article also cited evidence in which minors were abducted for use in child sex trafficking and were pimped out to the elite. The claims were dismissed by authorities as “fantasy”, however, former Nebraska State Senator John DeCamp later investigated the claims and was horrified to learn that they were indeed legitimate and George H. W. Bush was implicated in DeCamp’s investigation.

How quickly we forget!
How quickly we forget!

Even Terry McAuliffe says they should be in jail for these crimes in the 80's.

The Bush's traffic anything they can make money on. Drugs, kids, faulty water pumps, and banks.
