ā€œtears down those who disagree with himā€ is a bigger whopper than the Muslim crap.

It was a display of cojones until it wasn’t.

ā€œBarack Obama is a talented man – and by the way he’s an American, he’s a Christian – his problem isn’t the fact that he was born here or what his faith is.ā€

ā€œHis problem is that he’s a progressive liberal who tears down anybody that disagrees with him.ā€

I think Jeb’s on shaky ground here. He might have waited for some of the others to commit to this…

I got a pal who gets drunk with Obama at a Southeast DC mosque every Thursday nite.

Nobody knows about this yet…

Disagreeing and offering a different opinion based on facts is not ā€œtearing them downā€ Jeb…go back inside and take off your dress and put your big boy pants on you clown.

Are you from Texas where if they want to insult someone they say ā€œBless his heartā€? because Jeb! needs to be insulted.

Bless his heart (h/t, littlebluegirl, dnl): he’s trying to appeal to the moderate wing of the Republican Party.

As if there were one.

JEB makes Poppy seem adlib. But, still, no Donald slam and a weak, indirect defense of an American ethnic (and voting) population wanting reassurance.

Thanks, I guess?

Here’s the hate questioner:

:28 into ā€˜Your World in 90 Seconds’

What’s confounding is that the Republican base is still stuck on this birther, Muslim nonsense…and Obama’s not even running! So, in turn, they force their candidates to repeatedly address this nonissue, and it makes them look like idiots. Because of course, they’re going to pander. I don’t think the base is going to move on because it symbolizes their fear/anger at the other.

The ā€œCraziesā€ won’t like Jeb saying this !
Those 30% love what Trump is doing -
They eat this shit up as if from the bible.

By the way Cruz and Rubio -
Rosa Parks was on the national board of
Planned Parenthood.

ā€œBarack Obama is a talented man – and by the way he’s an American, he’s a Christian – his problem isn’t the fact that he was born here or what his faith is,ā€ Bush said in a Michigan speech, according to the Washington Post. "His problem is that he’s a progressive liberal who tears down anybody that disagrees with him."

Damn, Jeb, you really are trying to cover both ass cheeks with that bunch of statement. CYA doesn’t normally work this way, Jeb, but you keep trying – mmkay?

Here in Virginia, we say, ā€œWell, Bless his little heart.ā€ No emphasis on ā€œlittle,ā€ as it’s already implied. However, statement must be said in a sappy-sweet manner or a very cold-dry manner to have the intended effect. As usual, affectation is important. :smirk:

ā€œA progressive liberal who tears down ā€¦ā€ as opposed to, oh say, a conservative who is supportive of everything his opponent may offer as a solution … you know, like ā€œyou lieā€ … etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. … and I would sure love to see the documented list of all those times that Obama has torn down anyone who thinks other than he.

Its pretty pathetic when the best you have is to call the sitting President of the United States an American and a Christian, as if that involves some sort of radical thought process or some kind of weird unknown fact. Really going out on a limb there Jebby! aren’t ya’. Of course the Repubes don’t believe any of that, but they’re never going to be reality-based no matter how hard anyone in their party tries. Nice try Jeb!..no one you care about is listening.

The Republican party is completely vermischt.
