I think the world has had quite enough of the Bush family, thanks.

Thank you for your suggestion, Mr. President, yet we in the United States regret to inform you that we are no longer accepting applications from your children at this time.

We will be happy to keep this on file and, if in the future, we decide to shoot ourselves in the foot once more, you will be hearing from our representatives. Until that time we have decided to move in another direction.

Sincerely,

The United States of America

What a coincidence, I think he'd make great fish bait.

The nation's 41st president said Sunday that he would like to see a second son, Jeb, be president one day.


No more Bushes, no more Kennedys, no more Clintons. we are DONE with politicaly dynasties!

Weaver95: No more Bushes, no more Kennedys, no more Clintons.

And for good measure, no more Roosevelts. You never can be too careful.

In fact, if you get elected to an office higher than county clerk, your entire family should be ineligible for the next two generations. You may think I'm joking, but I'm not.

No more of this family either.

FTA: When asked if he was serious, he said: "Or maybe senator. Whatever. Yes, I would. I mean, right now is probably a bad time, because we've had enough Bushes in there."

GreenAdder: And for good measure, no more Roosevelts. You never can be too careful.

And no more Adams either!

CruiserTwelve: No more of this family either.

D'oh!

To be fair, the man does have grandkids so I think we'll need a blanket denial of application for this case

Jeb would have been better than GW this last eight years, but so would have the dude who played Corky on "Life Goes On".

Jeb Bush is as much of a crony and kiss-up to Christian fundies and such as his brother George is. Remember this nitwit governor, along with the Florida Legislature, the Republican Congress, and President Bush, made multiple attempts to "save" Terri Schiavo from having her feeding tube pulled.

/Lived not far from Terri's hospice in Pinellas Park.
//What a cluster fark that whole event was.

HowlingFrog: What a coincidence, I think he'd make great fish bait.

I was going to go with "hamburger cook".

LosinMySenses: To be fair, the man does have grandkids so I think we'll need a blanket denial of application for this case

I think his grandaughters would make a great sandwich.

Jeb Bush would be a wonderful President _{of the Hair Club for Men.}

Is he also a client?

It's surprising that the founding fathers never put a provision against political dynasties in the constitution.

zekebullseye: It's surprising that the founding fathers never put a provision against political dynasties in the constitution.

If that's who the people keep voting in, there's no inherent reason why we shouldn't. As long as the next president is not chosen by the sitting president, there isn't really anything that could be done.

How about "no"?

How's that NY appointment coming along?

We're nowhere near done with that sort of crap.

Neil?

/dnrtfa

I'm a righty and all, but Royalty went out with the Revolution imho. Enough Bush's, Clinton's, Kennedy's etc...

/this, coming from a true conservative

I hope both George Bushes get to go be the guest of honor at war crimes trials. If it wasn't for the actions of the father, the crimes in Iraq committed by the son would not have been possible. And just how farking delusional are the Bushes? Or is it just unabashed evil?

He can see Cuba from his house!

fark that family sideways.

All of 'em.

It's as if a billions voices screamed out in horror all at once.. and well just kept farking screaming.

CruiserTwelve: No more of this family either.



Do not approve of your shenanigans.

F*CK that.

If I were Jeb, I'd be pretty pissed about how bad my brother screwed the pooch for the Bush family.

I didn't RTFA, but I saw this on TV this morning.

I about spit my coffee laughing. Daddy's dumber than junior, or lying.

no no no no no no no no no

nien nyet non no no no no

no nien non nyet nien non no
no

no no

no

no

oh hell no

So, Jeb's hispanic son, so popular at the 2000 convention, is also named George Bush?

I think a presidential George Bush trifecta is no longer in play.

not no but HELL NO

I meant it when I said it in Hillary threads:

No more Bushes, no more Clintons.

Oh, and no more Kennedy's either. Enough with the ruling families schtick already. We fought a war against the British over that shiat, you know?

So, thank you for your suggestion Mr. President - but I think we'll pass.

mongbiohazard:

Except for the fact that it isn't what the American Revolutionary War was fought for.

You're right, it was all about Taxing Tea. The point is when it came time for the colonies to determine how to govern themselves going forward, the idea of a Divinely Endowed Family Ruling All wasn't the first nor preferable method.

They are one in the same.

Um, was this some kind of crossed signal from some alternate universe where the last eight years didn't trash the clan's reputation once and for all?

Senior is just trying to rewrite history in his mind. He wants to forget the failure of the family being president and hoping Jeb would be better. We don't need to humor the senile old fark.

I feel bad for Jeb (not just because his name is "Jeb") because his brother probably farked up his chances. Jeb seemed to be a good governor.

neilio42: I feel bad for Jeb (not just because his name is "Jeb") because his brother probably farked up his chances. Jeb seemed to be a good governor.

Jeb was a corrupt asshole in Florida. Just because his brother was less inscrutible doesn't mean he wouldn't be just as bad.

Havent you and your demonspawn done enough dmg to this country? fark off, and please, dont come again.

Kickstart UF: I think the world has had quite enough of the Bush family, thanks.

Only Democrats are allowed to have royalty.

/Only a deranged person could criticize Bush's earlier drinking habits while ignoring Ted Kennedy's.

How so?

neilio42: I feel bad for Jeb (not just because his name is "Jeb") because his brother probably farked up his chances. Jeb seemed to be a good governor.

His name isn't Jeb...it's John Ellis Bush, so he actually chooses to be called "Jeb."

That disqualifies him right there.

neilio42: Jeb seemed to be a good governor.

They said the same thing about "Junior" 8 years ago, too. How'd that work out, again?

Look up who the second and sixth Presidents of the U.S. were.

I think my son would make an awesome ninja, but he's 4, doesn't know karate, and would probably end up chopping up my daughter if I gave him a sword... Fathers aren't necessarily the most impartial point of view.

Lionel Mandrake: His name isn't Jeb...it's John Ellis Bush, so he actually chooses to be called "Jeb." That disqualifies him right there.

Well now hold on there, Mr Mandrake. Are you implying that a member of the Bush family is adapting a faux-folksy tone in his manner, perhaps for some cynical political purpose? Feigning a sort of Regular Joe posture, in shameless denial of the lifetime of astonishing privilege he's actually led? Hm.

Bender The Offender

[I'm channeling farkers here] Your son would suck as a ninja because your daughter is a horrible ninja herself. All siblings have the same ninja aptitude, just like jedis. Therefore, stop suggesting your son would be a good ninja.

Look up Fiorentino. Crony capitalism that would put his brother to shame. I guess "Heckuva job, Fiorentino" doesn't have the same ring, though.
