4. I'm actually shocked that anybody takes this candidacy seriously

I guess I'm overestimating the voters. After a few months of manufactored propaganda they won't notice how much the last one fucked up our country...

I guess thay will involve the propaganda play that Chomsky calls "change of course". "Well, there were some mistakes made in the past but it will be different this time" (despite the obvious fact that the policies, ideology and advisors remain the same war criminals.)

7. Papa Bush must be so proud of his family. His wife was a bully in school. Neil was a con man.

GW single handedly (not really...just taking poetic license) was responsible for the most deadly foreign attack on US soil as well as wrecking the economy. Jeb is a meglomaniac (see Terry Schaivo and his overall record as Gov of Florida.
Of course, Papa B. Has his own skeletons in his closet.
This family is a scourge on the nation.

and then run and hide back to his hole? Fuck this asshole. He's not an elected official...he's a fucking nobody. Go ahead America...vote for this turd and say bye bye to your favorite soldier, airman or sailor. I am only one vote, but do not come calling when ISIS arrives in NYC. Really...I will be reading a children's book looking into the sky.

11. The "dumbing down of America" is a dangerous thing.

There was a poll out in the last couple of days showing Condolizard Rice leading all potential candidates to take Barbara Boxer's senate seat in California. It won't likely happen but the thought she would have any standing in a poll like this, at any time, is an eye opener to how fxxking stupid a big chunk of America is. We underestimate Jebbie at our (own) peril.

I mean metaphysically——they seem like a pure principle of evil.

The Kochs too, but the Bushes are in a class by themselves.
