Speaking in South Carolina today, Jeb Bush said (via CNN’s Jake Tapper),

“If this election is about how we’re going to fight to get nothing done, then I don’t want anything, I don’t want any part of it. I don’t want to be elected president to sit around and see gridlock just become so dominant that people literally are in decline in their lives. That is not my motivation. I’ve got a lot of really cool things I could do other than sit around, being miserable, listening to people demonize me and feeling compelled to demonize them. That is a joke. Elect Trump if you want that.”



Denny has become obsessed over this thread title and demands to know its origins. I find it a little odd that he wants to White Knight good old Jeb but here is exactly how I found the title I used for the thread.

I went to reddit and saw this thread -

I then went from reddit to this site - http://www.politicususa.com/2015/10/24/jeb-bush-america-lot-cool-demonized.html

I thought the title that both reddit and that politcususa was great click bait, but the article and commentary from the "Real Liberal Politics" website was hot garbage.

I sited the original source of the quote since that was the only thing I used.

I think the GOPe will try and put all their eggs in the Rubio basket.

That certainly is the buzz right now. He does look like the least mangy of the pack.

Paul or Kasich seem like their favorite, but they aren't going anywhere
Trump/Kasich could happen... Paul is a great candidate imo but no shot this election.

ANYWAY to break up this overly political talk in the OT... Enjoy..

I just watch some pundits observe, "It looks like Bush is mentally surrendering".
 
Big Bush will not be a happy camper until every son becomes President. Whether Clit-on or Trump trump, look for Big Bush to use his CIA buddies against the next president to raise hell till 2020, when Little Bush runs again. Big Bush is in a hurry because Neil and Marvin aren't getting any younger.

What about Reggie?

He didn't say what the thread title says he did.
 
This dude should have lost every Oregonian's vote for what he said about Roseburg.
 
Huh? He said exactly that.

You and slypokerdog have a reading comprehension problem it seems.

"I don’t want to be elected president to sit around and see gridlock just become so dominant that people literally are in decline in their lives. "

Nope, didn't say he has better things to do than be president. Reads more like he intends to do something about gridlock if elected.

"I’ve got a lot of really cool things I could do other than sit around, being miserable, listening to people demonize me and feeling compelled to demonize them."

He has better things to do than those things, but those aren't "being president." They are partisan bickering.

"If you want an asshole, vote for trump." Basically.

So, he's your mortal enemy, then?

They are also part of getting elected president, so if he doesn't like it, he should get out of the kitchen.

Oh, there are lots of other choices if that's what you want. Including Jeb.

Not at all. That exact title was used for many articles and forum posts today.

I saw it was great click bait so I copied it and posted it here. Nice to see how right I was. I knew Mags would love it and you'd be offended.

Stir the pot and watch the soup boil over.

If he actually said he has better things to do than be president, I wouldn't have any objection.

What you posted simply is a fabrication. Not the truth.

Obligatory "you can't handle the truth."

I'm not a fan of any of the Bush clan. Maybe Barbara is ok.

He rather specifically said his motivation is to aspire to greater things than gridlock and bickering. Whether you or I agree with his agenda, that is what he said.

Lots of choices, but worse choices on the icky democratic party side.
 
The last two times we didn't have gridlock, the national debt skyrocketed.

That would be W and O, each with congress of their own party.
 
Aww. Dude cant hack it, or he would have been president instead of W.

Still probably the favorite though, pathetically.

Barbara Bush said that Katrina was good for black people... fuck all those Bushes. Reggie's injury prone ass too.
 
How about George Washington Bush?

Northwest pioneer, namesake of Bush Prairie, WA.

Would have settled in OR but we didn't allow black folks at the time.

"What I'm hearing, which is sort of scary, is they all want to stay in Texas," Barbara Bush said in an interview on Monday with the radio program "Marketplace." "Everyone is so overwhelmed by the hospitality."

"And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway," she said, "so this is working very well for them."

...

Former President Bush and former President Bill Clinton are helping raise money for the rebuilding effort.
 
A different take.

Jeb, meanwhile, let his frustration show in South Carolina over the weekend, saying he wasn’t campaigning to preside over gridlock: “I’ve got a lot of really cool things I could do other than sit around, being miserable, listening to other people demonize me and me feeling compelled to demonize them. That is a joke. Elect Trump if you want that.”

How is that a different take? It's an article talking about how Jeb's campaign is floundering based on his meltdown.

It's funny how hard you are trying to spin this.
