JEB's side of the story:
Jeb Bush: I Wasn't Hiding in the Closet

Florida Gov. Jeb Bush has disputed media accounts that said he hid in a closet to avoid anti-Republican protesters during a visit to Pittsburgh last week.

Bush encountered protesters Oct. 6 while on his way to a fund-raising event for Republican Sen. Rick Santorum at Pittsburgh’s exclusive Duquesne Club.

Curiously, those media accounts seemed to focus more on the "closet” aspect of the story than on the behavior of the unruly, obscenity-shouting mob. The stories mentioned prominently that Bush sought "refuge in a subway station supply closet.”

Bush said it was actually a boiler room.

7. He even pushed a much smaller female out of the way to get to cover.

You can make her out if you look closer in the pic.





Ed: It brings back memories of what his old man did when he had to ditch his plane and said 'the hell with YOU' to his crew. Maybe one day they'll name an aircraft carrier after Jebbie for this cut & run stunt.

13. On the Titanic, he'd have been the guy wearing his wife's dress
so he could get the first seat in a lifeboat.

9. Gee, are they saying that there were people actually
angry at a Bush?

Curiously, those media accounts seemed to focus more on the "closet” aspect of the story than on the behavior of the unruly, obscenity-shouting mob. The stories mentioned prominently that Bush sought "refuge in a subway station supply closet.”

Weird...

11. Yeah, I've often wondered how Poppy, (the pilot?),
happened to be the only one who got out of there alive. Has anyone ever read a good account of how that happened?

12. Has Anyone Seen The New Ad Where People Are Talking To A
BUSH?? I don't know who put it out but it was GREAT!!! People coming up to a bush and asking questions and then they end up with something about how the Bush in the WH doesn't have any answers either. I only saw it once, but it cracked me up! Must be on YouTube somewhere I guess.
