    Really? Is that man senile?

    The only Bushes I want to see at the White House are the one planted in the gardens. I've had enough of this family.

        Gee, we should be so lucky as to plant W in the Rose garden. The man wouldn't even make a decent fertilizer and he'd contanimate the entire garden for the worse, growing bigger and more deadly thorns on those roses. Now Jeb might make it as a White House gardener as long as he learned not to step in this brother's messes.

        They can't hear us at all.

        Thanks but no thanks, GHWB. You're family has given this country more than enough; no need to inflict any other Bush damage on us. We'll try to manage somehow.

                    Jeb was a HORRIBLE governor here in Florida, all he could do was help the developers pave over our tropical Paradise. He allowed way to much development and cut the schools short on funding. Worthless, this whole family is just worthless!!!!

                      cut taxes on the rich to the point that we are in a budget nightmare...

                      I really liked when he capped the sales tax on dock rentals at marinas on leased state ground at 50 feet in length... that's a tax cut the lower class can really sink their teeth into...

                        There you go with the liberal lie.

                        History has proved that every time the taxes are cut for the rich revenues have gone up.

                        Every time the taxes on the rich have gone up the revenues have gone down.

                        But the liberals with their class warfare ignore history lessons. This fact goes back to the time of Hoover.

                          Working really well for the U.S. economy these days, isn't it, Endo?

                          Here's Warren Buffet's take on the issue of class warfare:

                          There's class warfare, all right, but it's my class, the rich class, that's making war, and we're winning.

                          You seem to be missing the point that overall "revenues" may go up, but benefit only a select few. That is NOT in the best interest of the country.

                          How many more layoffs must there be, and how much more must median income decline, until you understand that left on its own with no regulation, wealth does not trickle down?

                          Don't bother answering. We all know you'll never understand.

                          Oh, by the way...Hoover did NOT help the economy. You may want to brush up on your Depression-era history.

                          The word in Florida is that a Democrat Senator is not going to run again. Jeb is looking at running for that office. That will position him to run after Obama falls on his face.

                            Undo...

                            Why, Jeb hasn't a chance of running so soon after his brother has put this country into ruin; and besides, there are so many others, much more qualified than him, to run in his stead...

                            Ms Palin, for example...a fine far right candidate, picked by primo candidate John McCain...great for getting the base energized, but what about the middle?

                            Mr Guiliani...who doesn't believe in abortion personally but will go with it anyway...much to the dismay of the party...

                            Mr Romney...great business man, good talker, but he tends to flip, or flop, on occasion...

                            Mr Huckabee... what a nice man...more sense than most...just needs a bit of a jump start to get going...

                            All in all, the field is so crowded with more talent than ol Jeb can muster...he should take his father's advice and sit out a few years...at least Bush 41 is smart enough to realize that people are tired of anyone named Bush, and want no part of anyone named bush running for national office for years...

                              LOL.

                              I would like nothing more than to see another Bush try to run for office and be banished from the White House by a fed-up public.

                              Go ahead.

                              Nominate another Bush as your 2012 presidential candidate.

                              I dare you.

                                  Oh PLEASE don't dare Jeb to run.

                                  The Bushes have a way of being able to manipulate election results...

                                    Yes, enough of the Bushes already! As the following story says, "Now the head of the family is on television talking about Jeb Bush and making you want to hide under the bed at even the hint that what now passes for a political dynasty in this country might continue.":

                                I've got two words for you in relation to this possibility:

                                1) NO
                                2) WAY
                                3) IN
                                4) HELL

                                Sorry for the fuzzy math.

                                    The public in general has had it with political nepotism and dynasties.

                                    Look what happened to Hillary - a qualified political insider at the highest level - denied.

                                    This great country has some of the brightest and best educated people on the planet.

                                    Why would we settle for less?

                                    More importantly, we should never elect someone from a state like Texas. These vast areas that are sparsely populated tend to have pockets of disturbed people, steeped with religious intentions, not having good will to others who think differenlty, hugging guns, embracing the new forms of racism (this is hatred put into action for people who don't share the same views), and secretly exchanging wild theories on how to keep their part of America safe from the rest of us. We've all observed the same "out of touch" ideas by Sara Palin up in the other Texas- Alaska.

                                      That's what we need. Another Bush. Jeb's not as smart as his brother though. I think the boy's not right.

                                              Look out people, there is our first and only warning. I think we had only one warning during George senior's reign as president that Jr was going to try. He slipped in and this country is worse because of it. Had he not had a buddy, buddy relationship with the supreme Court in flordia he would not had gotton in on the second election. He cheated and so much as told the American citizens that it's not your vote but how much money you have. Good-bye to King George. I never want to hear another American President telling me that I don't want to work, then fixing it where there are no jobs to be had. I don't like starving and I don't like looking at children who are lucky enough to see only one meal on the table three times a week. He didn't have enough common sense to see that without Americans working that it would loose it's strength. He didn't just fail the people he deliberately intended to make America a resort paradise with Mexicans as servants and what was left of Americans could starve in the streets after they have lost every thing they owned to over-inflated Capitalism. He could have dropped the overpricing on oil and gas at any time. He some how made it drop during his second election for just a little while just to get votes by making the American people think he cared and they fell for it. You see he's an oil man and could have kept this country from financial ruin. Turning the every day American into a tax deduction doesn't pay the bills. If the truth be known and this is my guess he is probably the unknown, unseen leader, of the Wall Street Speculators.
