Jeb Bush at Rand Paul Fundraiser describes himself as a..........

[Philmanoman]

Has to be some kind of cruel joke

 

[lx43]

I want to see youtube.

He is not a libertarian because his policies in Florida proved that.

 

[ravedown]

had i paid to be in that room...and had a couple cocktails, i am almost certain i would have involuntarily yelled "bullshit!" at the top of my lungs.

 

[sailingaway]

Glen Beck calls himself libertarian as well.

It is a fashion.

However, you had to KNOW they were trying to get Rand's cache in some way. Those who would be fooled don't know a statist when they see one, however.

Funny how JEB BUSH calls himself a libertarian, while Rand points out that he himself is a libertarian LEANING conservative..... next you know they'll be telling us that that means Jeb is more libertarian than Rand....

Libertarianism is catching on, I'm telling ya'.

We know Jeb is full of shit, but it's a good sign he is latching on to the label.

 

[johnrocks]

The day when he gets on a podium as renounces his Brother George " Hey Ben, turn the printing presses to warp speed" Bush's Presidency will be the day I think "ya know; that bastard may have finally woke up".

 

[lynnf]

even more vintage W

Dubya said he wasn't into nation building before he won the presidency....

he also said he was a uniter, not a divider. Ha, pants on fire!


another goodie:
in 1999 (one year before election) W had an author following him around in the campaign for inside access. he told the author that "if elected, I'm going to invade Iraq". of course, he wasn't saying this in the campaign! do you suppose Jeb might be doing the same kind of thing?

now, you members from Florida-- what did Jeb do as governor that shows he's a libertarian?

Some of you are funny. I told my guy I'd post this (because it is what he said) and that this board would look like a group of caged gorillas throwing shit at the wall.

The PNAC Statement of Principles. Jeb Bush is one of the signers. How much more neo-conservative can he get?:

“The truth is useless. You have to understand this right now. You can't deposit the truth in a bank. You can't buy groceries with the truth. You can't pay rent with the truth. The truth is a useless commodity that will hang around your neck like an albatross all the way to the homeless shelter. And if you think that the million or so people in this country that are really interested in the truth about their government can support people who would tell them the truth, you got another thing coming. Because the million or so people in this country that are truly interested in the truth don't have any money.”

Everyone around here knows where the Tea Party started.

Doesn't hurt to bring the PNAC connection up. Can't assume people know or remember that, even around here.

Jeb Bush

sounds like Jeb thinks that the only ones that deserve justice are the ones with money. he's no Ron Paul, that's for sure.

Not that it makes a heck of alot of difference, just making conversation.

Whoever said Ron Paul wasn't influencing the Republican Party needs their head examined. I have never seen so many Republicans talk about libertarianism and/or the constitution. Not that I believe they are actually constitutionalist or libertarians, but they hardly ever said those words before hand.

 

[libertybrewcity]

At least Rand is not the one holding a fundraiser for Jeb. Rand doesn't owe anything to him. Jeb simply got him some money and that's that. I don't see how this is a bad. Better getting money from a loser than getting no money at all, right?
