OMG:Jeb Bush says Paul Wolfowitz is a foreign-policy adviser
Jeb Bush on Friday identified Paul Wolfowitz, one of the architects of the Iraq war, as one of his foreign-policy advisers.
The comment came as the former Florida governor was answering questions at the Iowa State Fair. The question wasn’t audible, but Bush’s reply was.
“Paul Wolfowitz is providing some advice,” he said. “I get most of my advice from a team we have in Miami, Fla.” Wolfowitz had been reported to have been an adviser to Bush, but this is believed to be the first time the Republican presidential candidate spelled that out.
Bush did explain the challenges he has in crafting his own reputation for foreign policy with the team of advisers he has.

Jeb Bush refuses to rule out use of torture if he becomes US president , UK Guardian, August 14, 2015
The former Florida governor said in general he believed torture was inappropriate and his brother, former President George W Bush, largely ended the CIA’s use of the techniques before he left office. The CIA had been using waterboarding, slapping, nudity, sleep deprivation, humiliation and other methods to coerce al-Qaida detainees – methods the military would be prohibited from using on prisoners of war.

A Senate report released in 2014 cited CIA records in concluding that the techniques were more brutal than previously disclosed, that the CIA lied about them, and that they failed to produce unique, life-saving intelligence. The CIA and its defenders take issue with the report.
Jeb Bush said he believed the techniques were effective in producing intelligence but that “now we’re in a different environment.” He suggested there may be occasions when brutal interrogations were called for to keep the country safe.
“That’s why I’m not saying in every condition, under every possible scenario,” Bush said.
Later on Thursday in Iowa, Bush said there was a difference between enhanced interrogation and torture but declined to be specific. “I don’t know. I’m just saying if I’m going to be president of the United States you take this threat seriously.”

Spencer Ackerman writes: As president, Jeb Bush or any other successor to Barack Obama would be unimpeded in an attempt to reinstate of torture. Obama banned CIA torture by executive order in January 2009. To the chagrin of human-rights campaigners, the ban has no force of law, and can be overturned by a successor at whim. After political momentum resulting from the Senate intelligence committee’s investigation into CIA torture, the Senate passed a measure to codify the torture ban into law, but it has not passed the House.
Human rights advocates said Bush’s equivocation on torture was partially a result of Obama’s decision not to seek prosecution of any of the Bush administration torture architects. A Justice Department special inquiry into CIA officials who carried out waterboardings, “stress positions”, sensory deprivations and other torture techniques ended in 2012 without indictments.
“No top criminal accountability for torture leads to this,” tweeted Hina Shamsi, an ACLU attorney.
God help us all if this country 'gets fooled again'.
It deserves to be a separate post.
