"The Young Turks" (youtube.com/theyoungturks) has a bonus channel TYTshows with other productions like "TwenTYTwelve" with Michael Shure and extra regular show clips not on the regular channel (maybe because these segments were on the Current TV show?) In this clip Cenk Uygur attacks former Florida governor Jeb Bush's recent speech at a Romney rally bashing Obama as a divider and praising Romney as a problem solver. Also, why is GEORGE W. BUSH, the last republican president, not on the trail, in contrast to Bill Clinton stumping for Obama? Cenk says: GW was a "royal fuck up"!
is supposed to be the smart one. He's doesn't look it there. He looks like his idiot brother.

(45,984 posts)such as Jeb Bush, Paul Ryan or Newt Gingrich is greatly exaggerated?
Anybody who believes trickle down economics works or that the New Deal was a failure is just plain stoopid!

(365 posts)I have not seen his nasty a$$ go after anyone but President Obama. Even those who have criticized his incompetent brother (which President Obama has never done) he will not go after. But he makes it a point to aim his venom at President Obama.

(17,301 posts)The truth of the matter is that they are Republi-Cons and their heads are about to EXPLODE because there is a Black Man in the White House. Nothing more, and nothing less than blatant Racism on display for your viewing pleasure. Why else would they have gotten together the day after the President was sworn in and VOW to block all of his legislation and make SURE he fails?

(365 posts)...and that MANY people have criticized JEBS incompetent brother, W, but Jeb does not go after them, instead he goes after President Obama.
I hope I made myself more clear.

Didn't George W. and family purchase huge amounts of property in Bolivia?

And yes, he did speak at the seminar, more of a glad-handing, motivational speech that rethuglicans would appreciate.
the bushies have that huge compound down there so if the mess they created here causes our country to fail, they have a safe haven. I saw an overhead of that place somewhere, it's huge.

(5,167 posts)Thanks for the correction re Paraguay, not Bolivia.
Is that the country where Nazis have been known to hang out?
I understood that the Bushes sent one of the twins down there to buy the property. - Any truth to that?

Moreover, the land deal was consummated in a dinner meeting between Bush's daughter Jenna and Paraguayan President Nicanor Duarte. Although Jenna, who was in Paraguay under the cover of a 10-day UNICEF trip to visit child welfare projects, put the Bush family seal of approval on the land deal, the actual legal papers were worked out by Bush family lawyers and business representatives.
Jenna Bush is supposedly working for UNICEF in Panama City. A troubling aspect of the land deal is the role played by James Cason, the US ambassador to Paraguay, in a private Bush family business venture. Cason is a career Foreign Service officer whose previous assignment was the head of the US Interests Section in Havana, where he managed to stir up tensions between the mission and Cuban authorities with his anti-Castro advertisements placed in the windows of the U.S. offices. Cason also has a long history of cooperating with the Defense Intelligence Agency in such locations as Honduras, El Salvador, Panama, Uruguay, and Venezuela. Cason also served as the Guatemala Desk Officer at the Department of State. from Wiki: [link to en.wikipedia.org] "The Guaraní Aquifer...is one of the world's largest aquifer systems...It is said that this vast underground reservoir could suppy fresh drinking water to the world for 200 years." "US President George W. Bush allegedly has recently purchased a 98,842 acre farm in Chaco, Paraguay atop the aquifer. The Reverend Moon has purchased 1,482,600 acres in Chaco, Paraguay."
