And I always thought your brother was the stupid one.
My bad.

“Oh, I’m sorry. My bad,” Bush replied.

Your bad what? “Bad” is an adjective, not a noun.

I heard an NPR interview of Jebby this morning and he tried to say that it was Obama’s fault that Trump was doing so well among the GOPers.

I nearly drove off the road hearing his “reasoning”.

I wish I could “Like” this more than once. Also in this category: “Back in the day.” Back in what day? It needs specificity if it’s to mean anything.

And “as far as” without the “goes” or “is concerned.”

Voters subsequently confused Jeb! with his older brother when asked to identify the stupid one.

But what about Neil and Marvin Bush who are also offspring of GHW Bush… where do they rank in the “smartness scale”?

They were smart enough not to go into the family business.

Jeb: "Well…uhhh…I can’t tell em’ apart! __ Uhhhhh… The cities I mean…uhh!"

Gawwd’ what a world class disaster Jebby’ is! He’s actually been able to make Dumbya’, that apocalyptic screw up brother of his, look “edjumacated’” by comparison. The sooner he exits the stage, the clearer the loon who will win the GOPig primary race will be and the better the country will be for his leaving.

I have this same problem with dumb southern Governors named “Bush.”

Consider that Jebby is supposed to be the “sensible, rational” one in the GOPer parade. Makes me way less than hopeful for the future of my country.

Neil couldn’t on account of Silverado, I’m not sure why Marvin didn’t.

A bit hyperbolic (though not much), this is one of my fav illustrations of the “Bush Family Tree.”

How many pitchers of martinis a day was Barb knocking back when she was carrying him, anyway?

In his defense, there are so many police shooting unarmed black men, it’s tough to keep track without a scorecard.

And what could have become a teachable moment, and example of genuine leadership, vanished in a poof of “my bad.”

And this exactly proves BLM’s point. Police shootings of African-Americans under dubious circumstances are so common place in America, that you almost need a scorecard to keep them all straight.

However inadvertently it may have been, thanks Jeb! ( the exclamation point placed unironically for once).
