DEL.ICIO.USPut Bush in the White House
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
The Bush I want to see in the White House — that’d be Jeb, the former governor of Florida and the most consistent conservative in the Bush lot — joined John McCain last week for a visit to the Basilica de Guadalupe, one of the holiest sites for Catholics in Mexico, where he declared that McCain will win.
Too bad he’ll win without Jeb on the ticket, but radical Dems and wobbly Republicans are probably not ready just yet to continue the family dynasty. After four years of — God, forbid — Democrats pursuing the national agenda that Barack Obama espouses, the American public will be begging for another four years of a Bush in the White House. That’d be Jeb.
John Kerry, the man that the world turns to for — well, nothing comes to mind but he’s out there opining anyway — said Sunday that McCain lacks the judgment to be President. Maybe. But McCain did have the good judgment to reject overtures from Kerry in 2004 that he join him on a bipartisan ticket.
On “Face the Nation,” Kerry said that McCain has made poor decisions on everything from tax cuts to Iraq. “John McCain … has proven that he has been wrong about every judgment he’s made about the war,” said Kerry. “Wrong about the Iraqis paying for the reconstruction, wrong about whether or not the oil would pay for it, wrong about Sunni and Shia violence through the years, wrong about the willingness of the Iraqis to stand up for themselves.”
This is the thanks McCain gets for coming to Kerry’s rescue in 2004 when George W. Bush’s campaign accused him of being weak on defense. But, said Kerry, McCain has “changed.”
Too, Kerry said, “if you like the Bush tax cut and what it’s done to our economy, making wealthier people wealthier and the average middle class struggle harder, then John McCain is going to give you a third term of George Bush and Karl Rove.”
Ah, yes, the old “third term” routine. The Obama talking points.
Give us a rest on the “third term” just now. Wait for Jeb.
Listening to the candidates and their surrogates say things you know they don’t believe, you have to wonder: Do they really think we’re this stupid? Are we? Four years ago Kerry thought McCain had the stuff to be President. Now he’s “changed.” He thought the same thing of his eventual running mate, John Edwards. But he “changed” too.
Can anything any of them say between now and November — Obama, McCain and their surrogates — be believed?

McSame makes Kerry look like MacArthur.
And what’s this about McSame clowning around with his plane and killing 134 fellow soldiers aboard the Forrestal? Kerry never did that…nor did he get caught.
And what’s all this about McSame being the lead guy on the Keating Five scandal, and the stress sending his wife into the bottle?
Maybe your right, Jim. Maybe McSame is the one guy out there who does make a Bush look like a better option…
Is it strange the GOP would so willingly roll out another loser?
Stupid is as stupid does…
Time to give the tough jobs back to the smart people – no doubt.

I beleive W. has ended any prospects of any other Bush becoming President for good. As you so eloquently put it Wooten, ” Do they really think we’re this stupid?” I don’t want another Bush anywhere near D.C., let alone 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

Good morning all. To the ultimate question - can we trust anything said by either Hussein or Captain Queeg – the answer is “no.” (Regrets, but no apologies, to my “straight-talk express” apologist-friends.) The track record of each is the only predictor one can reasonably use. Although Obama is now backing out of his promise to surrender in Iraq, much to the distress of our leftist friends, I think they can rely on his earlier anti-military voting record. Similarly, McCain has a long history of pandering to the MSM and leftists, but his voting record has generally been pretty good, meaning “conservative,” especially on judges and on Congressional spending generally (far better than most Republicans on the latter.)
As to whether Jeb Bush ought to be in the White House, I know so little about him that I have to reserve judgment. While I think it likely I would vote for Jeb Bush over any democrat other than perhaps Joe Lieberman, I am not at all persuaded that he is (or is not) the conservative I would wish in the White House.

Propping up a failed dynasty is sure to get you hundreds of posts and stave off the Cox cost-cutting axe from you personally for a little while.
Actually, George H.W. Bush wasn’t a bad president, just not good enough to win a second term. And, whatever luster George W. Bush might have restored to the family name with his initial, correct response to 9-11 has been squandered in the poorly planned and prosecuted was in Iraq. Hint: The borders should have been shut before moving on Baghdad … or at any point since for that matter.
Jeb has likely had any presidential ambitions permanently killed by his brother. Maybe George P. will have a shot in a few years.

What’s amazing how little material Wooten has against Obama or McCain. (or Kerry).
There’s truly nothing there. It’s understandable, the Right spent themselves on all the clever double entendres of the Lewinski.
The word Lewinski has made into the Merriam-Webster collegiate dictionary. It means an impeachable act that doesn’t constitute sex.
You’ve got nothing, Wooten. I have plenty on Obama. I could easily form the language that would destroy his campaign.
Interested? (camera to wooten, wheels turning, “What is analchord’s game? What could he have? So he wants to play, eh?”

Enough dynastys already. The Democrats resoundingly denied the Clinton dynasty another shot at the White House, and the Republicans need to do the same for the Bush dynasty. Sorry Jeb, you missed your chance. The more I hear the Dems talk about McCain running for a third term for George Bush, the more I think of Obama as running for a second term for Jimmy Carter. Between Carter and Obama, we could seen a resugence of the “Know Nothing” movement in the United States. Now THAT’s a scary thought.

The Bush Dynasty are avowed servants of the Globalist Elite. Prescott, George Sr and Jr were all members of the Skull & Bones (Deathshead 322) at Yale. Prescott Bush had several business connections with the Nazis (as did IBM’s Thomas Watson & Henry Ford). The Bush family are proven Machiavellian, Neocons bent on furthering the Internationalist agenda…open borders, the North American Union (NAU/SPP), government empowerment & foreign entanglements, etc. The CFR connections of the Bush Family are endless, and so is Bush family commitment to the Globalist agenda! We Americans need to open our eyes to the plain truth & see beyond the phoney Left/Right paradigm propagated by the controlled “mainstream” media, Hollyweird & socialist indoctrination centers. The DNC & GOP are (95%) two sides of the same (Globalist controlled) coin!!!

So, Mr. Wooten wants the “family dynasty” to continue. There’s no surprise there. But that does establish why the quality of why journalism is so poor these days.
“Listening to the candidates and their surrogates say things you know they don’t believe, you have to wonder: Do they really think we’re this stupid? Are we?”
Anyone wanting the “family dynasty” to continue, must be.
You don’t have to be a blind conservative not to see it, just an ignorant one to deny it.

Well, I see the poor persecuted Christians in SC are planning to put out a Christian liscence tag just to show they are still alive after all the beatings they been getting from the heathens. A great idea. We need one for GA too. And the 10 Commandments everyplace and prayer in the schools and all the trimmings and no abortions neither.
No more Bushes in the White House. I can’t hardly afford gas at 4 bucks a gallon. I don’t know what it would shoot up to if Jeb got in there. Much as I love My President, we need another fambly in there. Let somebody else take the blame for all the mess that will be left. Just not put this Obama in. I would have to leave the country if one of Those People was elected President.
Have a good day everybody and pray for a GA Christian liscence tag before we get drove back into caves to live on account of the persecution.

So you’re claiming it was Kerry who contacted McCain about running together and not the other way around?
Care to prove it, Jim? You can say it all you want, but that doesn’t make it a fact; the fact is; Kerry says it was McCain looking to make a break from his party, and he’s not the only Democrat with a story to tell of McCain attempting to flee the GOP.
Or are you saying both Kerry and Daschle are liars?
oh, and Poo @ 8.50, when you write that the “Right spent themselves on all the clever double entendres of the Lewinski…”
Clever? Really? I wasn’t aware that a bunch of snickering 5th grade boys talking about “where Clinton put his peener” defined “clever” — if you heard anything from the right wing that operated at a higher level of intellect than that, cite away.

Well, Jim Wooten,
You are right on your toes this morning. What a great idea!! JEB BUSH!! That would put the Roosevelt “Dynasty” in the shade or move the Adams Dynasty to second place.
As America continues to seek ethical, moral, brave and learned men in the presidency we will continue to look at the Bush Family. They have stood firm in their love of this country and that is a prerequisite for the President.
Truman left the White House with hardly a warm goodbye. Now he is considered one of the best and strongest of past presidents. So it will be for George W. Bush. Let McCain keep the hearth warm. Jeb Bush is coming.

I feel good this morning! Let’s have some fun everybody.
I awakened this morning feeling like David Ruffin, a lead singer of the renowned Temptations. As we recall, David wanted to change the name of the group to, “David Ruffin”, and the Temptations. And he clearly understood the agitation that his proposal would create among members of the group; especially to Otis Williams.
During his absence, David wanted his proposal to be presented to the group during a rehearsal; and he wanted observers to pay special attention to the countenance, the emotional response, manifested in the face of Otis Williams.
As for me, I can’t wait until the general election, November 4, 2008. Citizens of the United States should vote for anyone except Barak Obama. And at the end of the day, the Negroes will be the only citizens casting their meager votes for him.
On November 5, 2008, in the spirit of David Ruffin, I can’t wait to see the faces of the individual Negroes making the rounds on talk-shows explaining why their favorite candidate didn’t win the Presidency. Everyone should pay special attention to their faces. It’s going to be hilarious!

I’ll never vote for the Republican party until they stop shamefully and disrespectfully tearing down everyone that doesn’t mindlessly and automatically fall in line with their agenda. a real man doesn’t have to do that. a real man can build themselves up based on their own merits and doesn’t need schoolyard name-calling and belittling of others to prove their self-worth. a real man doesn’t need to constantly twist the truth and re-arrange the words spoke both others to degrade that person in an attempt to not really look good, but to at least not look as bad, and that’s considered a victory. bush and cheney have done more damage to this country than a 1000 Carters or Clintons. in years to come all of the truth will come out, just like it did with Nixon, except this time it will be even worse than than anything Nixon did even. hell, this cowards won’t even admit responsibility in their failure of 9/11, nope, it’s always someone else, probably that wicked boogeyman the Liberal, oh my God hide the children. after all that has been done, and all we have seen, and all us see it whether we can admit to it or not, you can not truly love and care about this country and be a Republican at the same time. just what they have done with oil and how it has hurt so many Americans is just one of many examples. and it’s alright if you don’t agree with me, ‘cause I know that’s what America used to be and what it is supposed to be.

I am a conservative, if not libertarian. And one thing W has made clear to anyone on the right— “W” is no conservative (amnesty, spending, Kennedy No Child left behind, prescription drug bill, I could go on and on).
This follows HW’s “Read my lips—no new taxes” (which led me to vote for Pat Buchanon in the Republican primaries in an attempt to slap some sense back into him).
Nope. No Way. I won’t be fooled again on the Bush clan.
If conservatives are looking for leadership, let’s go with a proven quantity—-like Newt. Not only does he talk the talk, but he changed DC into a conservative town (until W, Cheny, Bill Frist, Trent Lott and Dennis Hastert peed it all away).

It’s a shame before God that Negroes in the United States mental prowess is at the level of lower animals; especially the so-called educated integrationist Negroes. They are the primary source of the difficulty in the black community; and being paid to continue their lunacy by the powers that be.
This is what we have done to the Negro in the United States. We’ve basically taken a bona fide mental slave, used left brain techniques, and given them university degrees. By doing so, clearly the latter state of the person and people is worse than the first. Consequently, Negroes don’t have the right brain capacity to understand their problem. How can they solve them?
The so-called educated integrationist Negroes believe that the visible decline of the masses of black people is caused by Hip-hop, drugs, and fatherless homes, etc. That’s left brain thinking. That’s something they read in a book; that’s programming by the system. It’s impossible for them to think beyond programming. That’s a function of the right brain which is largely absent in the Negro community.

Thank God he had a republican General to win that big war for him. Ooops the replacement for that democratic president dropped the A-bomb….he did not need a general…haha! I really do hope you liberals win the white house….congress, and house of reps. I want this country to be in such bad shape that we have another recession and Socialism is the theme of the day. Then, maybe, the citizens will rise up and listen to real leaders who will extricate these ideologies and put some reality back into American political policies.

You cannot be serious. Carter continues to be the worst president this country has ever seen. Clinton left this country in a bubble that screwed everyone. The media and the vocal minority have labeled Republicans everything in the book that could be deemed deragatory, and you think the Republicans point and call people names. Please get your head out of the TV and this God foresaken newspaper and do your own research.

If I told you once, I’ve told you a thousand times. I’m not about to allow the FBI, CIA, GBI, NSA to destroy our organization with the support of the so-called educated integrationist Negroes. The so-called educated integrationist assisted the government in re-enslaving the masses of black people. And today they use the media, instruments of the powers that be, to confuse black people beyond insanity to insure that they will not be exposed.
We have learned a lot from the experiences of Marcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association. So-called called educated integrationist Negroes assisted in the demise of Marcus and the masses of African Americans. I won’t allow that to happen to us; God willing.

bush is the worst president we have ever had. and as i have had to tell all republicans, and i’m not a liberal or a democrat because i know that political polarization is killing this country, two wrongs don’t make a right, carter had flaws, but the evil and selfishness i see from bush and cheney has not been matched since the robber barons a century ago. and you call everyone else lemmings, republicans all think the same and say the exact same things in arguments. the fact is, diversity is one of the things that has hurt the democratic party, free thought has also kept them from always being on the same page. when a party uses religion for their personal gain, they automatically limit freedom. you’re so blind and are one of the people helping to hurt this once great country. trapped in a lie that you are too weak to get away from because you would have to admit that you are human and can make mistakes, another thing bush and cheney aren’t man enough to do. we need to right this ship, now, or it may be too late. remember, religious freedom is an oxymoron, moron. carter wasn’t perfect, clinton wasn’t perfect, but neither of them allowed 9/11 to happen on their watch after they were so clearly warned of the threat. and I couldn’t see either of them sitting in a school with a dazed idiotic look long after they were told our country was under attack. the truth is in the history of this last 8 years. the history channel and the military channel in the future will not be kind to your butt-buddies bush and cheney. it’s so sad that the people that preach endlessly about stuff like ‘united we stand’ spend so much time dividing us.

First it was Weasley Clark who said McCain wasn’t fit or qualified to serve being shot down and a POW in Vietnam, as if McCain is running on his Vietnam record unlike, say John Kerry, who surely did. Now it’s John Kerry saying McCain isn’t fit. Just sit back and watch these nincompoops on the lib left continue with their hatred and vitriolic attacks on McCain. They will be left with nothing to do but scrape their vitriolic feces off the walls of political history when Obamania loses in November.
WASHINGTON (AP) - John Kerry says Republican John McCain doesn’t have the judgment to be president. If that’s the case, then it’s probably a good thing McCain rejected overtures from Kerry, the Democratic presidential nominee in 2004, to form a bipartisan ticket and run with Kerry as his candidate for vice president.

I feel good this morning! Let’s have some fun everybody.
I awakened this morning feeling like David Ruffin, a lead singer of the renowned Temptations. As we recall, David wanted to change the name of the group to, “David Ruffin”, and the Temptations. And he clearly understood the agitation that his proposal would create among members of the group; especially to Otis Williams.
During his absence, David wanted his proposal to be presented to the group during a rehearsal; and he wanted observers to pay special attention to the countenance, the emotional response, manifested in the face of Otis Williams.
As for me, I can’t wait until the general election, November 4, 2008. Citizens of the United States should vote for anyone except Barak Obama. And at the end of the day, the Negroes will be the only citizens casting their meager votes for him.
On November 5, 2008, in the spirit of David Ruffin, I can’t wait to see the faces of the individual Negroes making the rounds on talk-shows explaining why their favorite candidate didn’t win the Presidency. Everyone should pay special attention to their faces. It’s going to be hilarious!

For the blog ID stealing moonbat on McCain and the carrier fire, read up on some facts for a change, not that your disgusting POS a-ss on the left ever really does:
July 29, 1967 - The worst accident aboard a US Navy surface vessel since WWII. The USS FORRESTAL was operating on Yankee Station off the coast of North Vietnam conducting combat operations. This was the fifth such day of operations and at 10:52am the crew was starting the second launch cycle of the day, when suddenly a Zuni rocket accidentally fired from an F-4 Phantom into a parked and armed A-4 Skyhawk.
For the moonbat POS, McCain flew A-4s. Kinda hard to set something off when you are sitting in one on the receiving end of an accidental missile launch due to a malfunctioning circuit in the cockpit of the F-4, eh?
