It's like his brother and Sparklemoose spawned many years ago, then let their child out of the basement . . . .

A top priority, he explained, is reforming a broken immigration system and turning it into an economic catalytic converter for sustained economic growth.
It's hard to use big words like "catalyst".... and it's hard....
to put food on your family.
This speech was clearly a catalytic converter ... er catalyst... for yet another Bush family candidacy, that is if you subscribe to child-like, Palinesque level of discourse in your world leaders. No wonder Barbara Bush was so embarassed for Jeb to run.
The rest of the world may ask: is America so backward that we elect dipshits like dumb and dumber to run the United States of America? Grown men who can hardly speak?! Clearly, based on GWB 43, the answer is yes. We got torture, mass war, and economic collapse from these GOP clowns.
I dont know what the effect has been, because, you know, its really kind of hard to be out on the road, and Im just a gladiator these days, so I dont follow every little detail.
As we grow our presence by growing our ability to produce oil and gas, Bush went on, we also make it possible to lessen the dependency that Russia now has on top of Europe.
I dont have a solution. I mean, IIIve read articles, you know, about whether the 1915 kind of breakout of the Middle East and how that no longer is a viable deal.
He touted a Latin American free-trade agreement and noted that where Columba and I live is going to be right in the center of the universe of that free-trade agreement.
And of course it's not a Republican speech without a "tighten the noose" reference when discussing brown people.
Murica you see.

(99,710 posts)He was supposed to be the smart one and he's anything but. Dubya could get away with being an idiot because he wasn't selling competence, Jeb is.
This could be setting up to be one of the biggest fails in modern political history.

(86,622 posts)for their sponsors. When so few are funding the elections, and given how early it is in the process, the funders are letting their "guys" out into the world with a small wad of cash and instructions to go win some hearts and minds... meanwhile their bosses/funders sit back and watch the show as the public engage in lightening the load on the clown car for them. When next year at this time comes around on the calendar there will be some real betting going on among competing funders even though the end result will be the same regardless of who actually takes office if it is a Republican.
Jeb has a different primary base backing him and I get the sense that he doesn't need the kocktopus' money... look at who is advising him. Those are his overlords from the mic with secondary help from big oil. The rest of the clowns will be kissing up to the usual suspects because who else is there?
