His brother was MORE popular than Obama?
OMG, what are they passing around when the family gets together in Kennebunkport or Crawford? Wake up America!!! Change maybe coming slowly! But it took eight years to get into the mess that Jeb’s brother played a big role (not the complete role) in making. The change thing is still better that eight-years of Bush League. Don’t let this happen again. Please!!! No more BUSH league White Houses.

Simple solution - mandate that everyone who votes must pay income tax - no pay, no vote. As long as you are paying for services, you should be heard. If you’re collecting, you should not have the right to determine how much others should pay.

We have had enough of the dumb Bush family. Haven’t they done enough harm. I guess he wanted all his boys in office as Pres. Well guess what, the public don’t want you. So give it up and go away all you BUSH brothers.

Leave Florida alone Jeb. You and your ilk have already ruined the state by letting developers go hog wild and not requiring them to pay impact fees, contaminating the environment, giving out no “child left behind” educational material contracts to your brother Neil, redrawing voting districts to favor rethuglicans, paving over every square inch of green land left while awarding building/transportation contracts to companies in yahoo-ville, Florida (e.g., look at the multimillion dollar courthouses built in the last decade in underpopulated areas like Clay County, Stuart, etc., while the rest of the state can stew in fifty year old buildings with constant plumbing/ a/c and mildew problems) You right-wingers have no ideas … you are just a bunch of angry thugs.

I see so many already discredited e-rumors and out right lies put out by the extremists to try to take the country back.
All these lies and all these rumors and all the opinions passed off as real journalistic news have not raised the Republicans approval rating one point.
BUT,Pres Obama has gained more then he has lost in persons who approve and just to let you fox watchers know,Republicans In Congress have a far lower approval rating the Dems and its been this way since just after the 04 election cycle. Just facts,I know its hard to swallow as you never hear anything negative about the right from Fox!

Why is it so vogue for Republicans to trash their own party? If you feel, Jeb, that the Republican message is outdated and needs to change, then do it. Don’t sit there and whine about it as if you’re above it all.

AND ANOTHER THING. I’M TIRED OF HEARING “I INHERITED”. MR. PRESIDENT YOU BEGGED FOR THE JOB WITH ALL OF ITS’ WARTS AND NOW YOU WHINE. YOU ALSO BRAG THAT YOU HAVE ACCOMPLISHED SOOOO MUCH IN YOUR 8 OR 9 MONTHS. IT WASN’T AMERICA UNTIL YOU CAME ON THE SCENE. EVEN THE NOBEL COMMITTEE BELIEVES YOU “WILL BE” A WUNDERKIND AND FOREPLAYED YOU WITH THE PEACE PRIZE. I WISH YOU WELL BUT GET A GRIP. OH, AND SEND THE TROOPS.

Well there seems like one thing we can all agree on, our current political system is junk!!! The war happened and there’s only so much you can blame Bush for. Those 4,500 people signed up for a job and they knew what they were getting themselves into. The last time there was an attack like that on America, I believe we entered into WW2. Did Bush do some things wrong? Sure, what President hasn’t. Will Obama make a bunch of mistakes in the 4 years hes in office? Sure. It is what it is and will continue to be as long as we have a government for the government and not a government for the people. All those poor guys making $174K a year with full medical and retirement….yah they know how us average Americans feel…..

I’m surprised Jeb has time to make any comments I would think he would be too busy trying to get another job, like his old one with Lehman Bros, so he could sell some more garbage to the State’s pension fund.

Oh sure Jeb. For people who had half of a brain (and used it), good ole “Dumb-ya” was about as popular as a festering sore on a person’s rear-end.

Jeb - you hit the nail on the head. With a current governor who has breached his promises to the electorate (he actually lobbied the tax reform commission to NOT reduce taxes…he has not focused on stimulating the Florida economy, etc.), you are sorely missed by at least many of the rational voters here in Florida. You cared about kids and about the elderly. And our economy. And in not raising taxes. Maybe we were in a bad place when Obama was elected; we are heading to a far worse place. To all of you cynics - I am not a Bush nor am I a Bush employee. I am a conservative who is hoping or praying that either Marco Rubio or Kendrick Meek (both of whom stand on principle, even ones we may disagree with) beats the disgustingly, opportunistic individual who wanted to be Governor…then VP…and now a Senator.

#59/#60 Dana - you need help…maybe Obama’s health plan has something for Psychotic-Alcoholics. These delusions you have can be dangerous, you should seek medical attention immediately. Please do not operate heavy machinery or firearms until further notice. Actually, don’t talk either, someone may punch you.

Bob said:”Obama fans are on some kind of “hate Bush” kool-aid. OK I get it you did not like their policies…I may be a little premature…” What side of the fence are you playing here Bob? I’m not drinking any kool-aid, it was forced on me when Jeb and his cronies stole the election from Gore and the rest is history. Bush was a disaster from the word “GO”. I think you are extremely premature…anyone who thinks you can clean up any Bush mess in six months needs to get some oxygen and clear their mind. And yes, it (the economic senario) was so bad the only thing to do was to throw a ton of money at it. I know my portfolio has returned to pre-bush fiasco levels. My job is steady and secure, but I planned it that way. I got an education and I didn’t suck up and even apply in industries that were vunerable to our current senario.

As to health care…remember the HMO B.S. started with Nixon, because it was a profit driven method for the insurance companies. We are the richest country in the world, yet we have no where near the lowest infant mortality rate nor the longest lifespan. There is a stupendous separation of wealth in this country….the rich get richer while the poor and poverty numbers climb. The middle-class of this country is shrinking, you should be concerned. At least Obamahas a plan and is trying to equalize the availability of health care for everyone, not just the haves.

I don’t envy the President’s job. He came into office in the worst of conditions, but he has worked tirelessly to improve the situation. I give him kudos for that.Finally, I at least appreciate a President who can speak without butchering the English language. We have to be in a better position if jus tby the fact that our President doesn’t make words up to complete a sentence.

So, Bob, I suggest you possibly drink some kool-aid and ease off of the hooch. You might see things more clearly.

Flash - america hasw been on a downward spiral since Nixion.
As for Bill Ciliton he destroyed all WMD in Iraq with a plan that was called “Operation Desert Fox” Look it up or ask glen butt.
This was the reason W could not find them..plus we all had jobs and the budget had a surplus.

So many republican racists with all their BS cover stories. President Obama did decide to spend all that money- he had to because of what dumbya and cheney did to us- why are all the morons republicans? None of them seem to have a clue as to wqhat’s going on in our country or why- they just know they don’t want a black man in the White House so if he decided to give everyone $10,000 they’d all take it and then bitch about the deficit.

AS usual we get Jebbie’s feminine side-
hysterical reaction to Obama’s approval rating followed by another Bush lie.
The Bushes should all leave for their secret hideout in South America before the trials start for war criminals in the Bush administration.

#53 You blame the stock market crash on Bush? The reason it crashed was because polls were showing that Obama was leading in the polls to be the next President of the U.S. and the market took a dive. Notice when he won the election it tanked even more and so on. Remember he is not for making money, only for taking it away.

Alice I am with you #48 I am not better off than I was 8 months ago. The only change I see is less change in my pocket. Everyone likes to blame Bush but we sure did have some good years low unemployment, etc. Just remember who controlled congress the last two years. 911 was not his fault. If you think we are in trouble with Bush we are heading for triple trouble with Obama. He will sink us all! There won’t be any upper class left to pay for the ones that don’t pay. As for his healthcare reform just prepare yourselves. Leave Jeb alone…..

People:

Jeb is jaded, you can read that between the lines. As for the reign of W the not-so-great for 8 years…it just proves that half of us are idiots. I’ll leave it up to you to figure out if that means you. Palin 2012 means Obama for another 4!
