Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush Ā® on Sunday praised Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder Ā®
Even if youāve been living off planet for the last two years, the above should tell you all you need to know about Jeb Bush.
First, the Flint case is yet another example of environmental racism and the result of conservative ideology that sacrifices the common good to increase profit.
Second, the fact that lead (Pb) and lead (show the way) are homonyms make this statement and Bushās following one singularly ironic:
Bush said that he thought the governor has ātaken the lead now.ā
accepting responsibility for fixing the problem isnāt the same as accepting responsibility for causing the problem in the first placeā¦
āWhat Iām saying, though, instead of saying the dog ate my homework, itās someone elseās fault, once it became clear, he took ā heās taken the lead now,ā Bush told CNN.
Thatās really funny if you pronounce lead āledā instead of āleedā.
Inability to recognize incompetence seems to run in the family.
āYouāre doing a heck of a job, Brownie.ā
Bush utters more gaffes than Romney ever did!!! Doofus!!!
Attempting to clean up after the underlings you hired are caught after poisoning children for about a year qualifies as leadership in JEBās āmindā ?!?
Not exactly, Snyder was dragging his feet ā it was the newly elected Mayor of Flint who got the ball rolling on the emergency declaration and created so much noise that it was too embarrassing not to.
Yet another example of Jeb!'s oddly-skewed vision. Not a word about the effects of lead poisoning on a generation of Flint residents. And, for that matter, none from Snyder either.
In this case its āHeckuvajob Rickā. His approval for Snyder is nothing more than the usual GOP tribalism that says, āheās one of ours and Iāll do my best to protect him from serious criticismā. Actual facts are meaningless to Jeb!, since clearly he hasnāt taken the time to look into this disaster. Not sure that would help Jeb! though, since the man is about as dumb as they get.
Had Governor Snyder been a Democrat, does anyone really believe he would be praising him? Jeb! is a nugatory, empty suit.
This kind of tribal loyalism seems to run in the Bush family:
āYouāre doing one heck of a job Ricky!ā
He didnāt ask for help. He pretended nothing was wrong. FOR YEARS.
Sorry about the dementia onset JEB!
Itās like he WANTS to loseā¦
Seems to be working out for him.
āHeckuva job, Snydey.ā
I really thought that there wasnāt much else that could be done to tarnish the Bush family brand after Wā¦ I was wrong.
Ahhhā¦its all making sense to me now.
Apparently Snyder has been providing Jeb with drinking water for quite some time now. That would explain why Jeb has been perhaps the most incompetent and tone deaf candidate to come down the pike in many years. Lead poisoning. Its the most plausible answer to his campaign performance I have heard yet.
So, when it pretty much becomes clear that you knew but were doing nothing and eventually are forced to do something by public outcry it is leadership?
Jeb! āThe Anvilā Bush embraces drowning Snyder.
