Fuck the NYTā¦the post was very appropriate. Just who in the hell is Jeb Bush to yak about poverty? He was born with a platinum spoon in his mouth. The asshole has never had a hard day in his life.

i totally understand the point youāre making. but the arrangement you describe doesnāt exist so much as it is perceived. i would argue that rational people understand that you can work for a company and still have your own opinions and speak them publicly. donāt get me wrong, iām not arguing with you. iām arguing against any employer who would get bent out of shape against somebody ranting on social media.

I doubt Jeb has the energy for that. But Iām sure Mrs. Bush appreciated the sentiment.

I worked for a very big corporation for a long time, anyone would recognize its name, and we were told that we were not to do anything at any time even if we were not identified as an employee that would put this company in a bad light on pain of dismissal. Thatās what employers do

Iām impressed at the speed with which the Bush campaign responded, essentially demanding an apology. And getting it from the NYT.

Glad to see Jeb! pushing back on this.
'Cause if thereās anyone Iād look to for expertise and experience on the issue of poverty, it would be a member of the most pampered, clueless political family in the United States.

Iām not sure, though, that they benefit a lot in the long run by showcasing this guyās tweet, because the statements cut to the heart of Bushās bullshit demagoguery very concisely.

I think we all know what itās like to hear a Republican say something that makes us so angry that smoke comes out of our ears in a second. So this is in solidarity with the NYT worker! But next time, shout rather than tweet. It works for me!

I knew it couldnāt be Frank Bruni. Heās still waiting for his cute nickname, like W have him.
It appears that the GOP voters are already telling Jeb to go Fuk himself. If Jeb makes it to the general election as the unfortunate Republican nominee the Democrats will sing in unison with Republicans to Jeb! Go Fuk yourself.
