Bush calls out Rubio, Cruz for opposing authorizing force in Syria

Jeb Bush, continuing to press his case as a strong commander in chief in the wake of last week’s ISIL attack in Paris, singled out Sens. Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz for opposing the authorization of force against Syria in 2013.

During an interview with the New Hampshire Union Leader editorial board Thursday, Bush blamed the senate for failing to grant Obama permission to take on Syria and its president, Bashar Assad, after evidence surfaced of a nerve gas attack that killed 1,400 Syrian civilians.

“We had two United States senators—three—their views at the time were that it wasn’t our fight,” Bush said.
The singling out of Cruz and Rubio comes as both senators have overtaken Bush, trying hard now to revive his presidential bid by presenting himself as a capable commander in chief in serious times, in the broader battle for the GOP nomination.

They do throw Paul a bone at the end, but even then ....

Bush passingly mentioned Rand Paul, a foreign policy isolationist, even though he is not much of a factor in the broader primary battle at this point.

“And Paul, I think, has been consistently against and I admire his principled centered view on this, but I think he’s wrong," Bush said.
