Jeb Bush meets with campaign operatives

(I'm sure he's running in 2016):

Bush Meets with Campaign Operatives
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) met with a group of his former staffers at a Washington, D.C. hotel, National Review reports.

"Bush, a potential 2016 presidential contender, spent an hour in the hotel's Cannon room, reminiscing and entertaining questions about his political future... Neil Newhouse, Mitt Romney's campaign pollster, was at the meeting, as were several veteran Florida operatives."

Bring it on, BUSH.

Your family name is synonymous with national disaster.

We need to get out in front on that one and make sure the the real story is exposed, not the bush version of it.

wonder if they ever met each other 'back in the day' of listening to politicans voice mail and reading their emails.

No one will ever trust a Bush, they are as anti-America as it gets in this world.

Toss in a few leftovers from his brother's team while you're at it. And make sure they get McCain's VP search team, too.

Another Bush.

I wonder if Jeb is ever resentful of old W, considering how much he poisoned the public to the Bush name.

They whitewashed Grampa Bush and his treasonous acts in business dealing with Hitler and breaking the trading with the enemy act and then trying to militarily overthrow the US government and bring his own version of Fascism across the pond.

They whitewashed H W Bush and his CIA days of trading cocaine for weapons and his work as the VP under Reagan in the arms for hostages deal.

They are in the process of whitewashing Dubya Bush for his duping of the American public about the imminent need to attack Iraq because of a nuclear threat, er...WMD....er...very bad man. Making sure that the one President that while taking the most holidays ever was receiving warnings about a planned terrorist attack using planes and did nothing and as a result presided over the bigest terrorist attack in US history. Yet is continually painted with big fat brush loaded up with white paint which says "He kept us safe" WTF?

By the time Jeb is ready to run, Fox will have its orders in full operation mode with countless stories about "the other side" of Dubya. His love of his family and his personal struggles against alcohol and of course his ongoing righteous upstanding character defined by his unbridled "faith" in his dear Lord and saviour. They'll have their viewers almost crying for another Bush to guide and lead them.

to put another Bush in the White House, then don't ask for my help when they are ready for him to leave. I vowed that I would tell my children and my children's children about the HORRORS of the Bush Family. Does Jeb bush know that him running for President is a sweat drenching Nightmare for the Sane public???

No matter how much money they have a bird in the hand is worth more then three of them Bushes. No thanks, I think I'll pass. Another Bush is like dry heaving.
