“'I make a joke that every four years, there’s the Olympics, there’s the World Cup and I come to New Hampshire thinking about running for president,' Pataki told a crowd of 15 people during a speech at a Sea-Doo and snowmobile dealership in Laconia, N.H"

this is true of a /lot/ of folks, including scott "flunked out of college" walker

never forget

Republicans say they have found their fresh new face in the corpse of Ronald Reagan, recently back from the dead.

got pataki blastin (emails) at me

A particularly apt quote from Krugman regarding Jeb Bush's policy advisors:

Simply raising questions about the orthodoxies of the moment leads to excommunication, from which there is no coming back. So the only “experts” left standing are those who made all the approved mistakes.

bizarre to see Clinton trying to move in on Warren's territory at the same time Jeb Bush is going after, like, Huckabee's

not really?

one does craven more smoothly than the other

Clearly part of the current GOP would-be contender charm offensive: http://www.examiner.com/article/george-w-bush-to-college-grads-you-don-t-have-to-be-too-smart-to-be-president

jeb doesn't want anyone to forget that he hates the gays too!

oh shit i almost forgot, thanks for the reminder jeb!

Such a fucking cheat that he is John not Jebediah.

haha wait what

John Ellis Bush

sry u had to find out this way

That's it, he's lost my vote. Fucker.

Wouldn't Jeb Bush be redundant, then? It'd be like scuba apparatus.

atm machine

Just George Oscar Bluth, you see.

haha yeah so he's really Jeb Ush

ha ppl shd start addressing him that way without admitting it it sounds almost the same but not quite

I'm fine with Je Bush.

Or maybe everyone should call him John E or just plain E, like they did with his brother.

John E. "Smoke" Bush

lol

I like JE (sounds like "Gee") let's go with that

"JE Bush, did you think up that answer all by yourself?"

"JE that sounds like a terrible idea, have you really thought this through"

Clearly someone realized really early on that "J. E. Bush" sounded way too much like a robber baron. While I'd love for the news to start calling him that, it does border on "Barack HUSSEIN Obama" stuff.

Like the Tea Baggers and "Hussein", I just want the American people to realize that John Bush share the same first name as the guy who shot Reagan.

haha

Lincoln had a secretary named Jeb.

Christie attacked "civil liberties extremists" in a 50-MINUTE foreign policy speech in New Hampshire.

Now srsly, who the fuck could listen to that?

LIVE FREE OR DIE WHAT THE SHIT KIND OF LICENCE PLATE IS THAT FFS SOMEON BRING ME A SCHOOL TEACHER TO YELL AT
