Jeb Bush: I Find GOP Rhetoric ‘A Little Troubling’

Jeb Bush: I Find GOP Rhetoric A Little Troubling

AP

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, whose name often comes up during talk of a possible brokered GOP convention, said Thursday he is troubled by what he’s heard from the Republican candidates during the presidential debates.

“I used to be a conservative and I watch these debates and I’m wondering, I don‘t think I’ve changed, but it‘s a little troubling sometimes when people are appealing to people’s fears and emotion rather than trying to get them to look over the horizon for a broader perspective and that’s kind of where we are,” Bush said Thursday during a speech in Dallas, Fox News reported. “I think it changes when we get to the general election. I hope.”

Asked later to clarify his comments, Bush told the Washington Post: “I am a conservative and I think we should be offering a compelling, optimistic vision and plan to deal with our structural problems as a nation.”

After the event, Bush told Dallas CBS affiliate KTVT-TV the GOP contenders need to take care not to campaign too far to the right.

“I think it’s important for the candidates to recognize though they have to appeal to primary voters, and not turn off independent voters that will be part of a winning coalition.”

And despite the speculation that he or another candidate could be recruited to join the race, Bush shot that down, telling KTVT:  “Not going to happen. The party nominee will be amongst the candidates that are in the race now.”

      Do not brush this aside so easy, if you think this is coincidence, I will challenge you. The elite think you can be led anywhere they want. In a brokered convention, anyone can step in as a nominee, called a dark horse. If they can muster the votes in a second round, they can conceivably become the nominee.

      There have been two families in power postions in Washington for over three decades. The Bushes and the Clintons. Even more if you consider George H. W. Bush was the head of the C.I.A.

      The only thing they may not be counting on is Ron Paul. They have tried to keep him out of the media, but his supporters are very loyal. It will be a very interesting convention this year. The military for Paul are talking about marching on the convention. It just gets exciting from this point forward.

      On the war issue, open your eyes guys! There is more war and a much more dangerous world today than under Bush. Bush’s action was taken to try to extinguish a growing world threat. Obama’s actions in the world has been to create a more unstable world. Obama ran on stopping a war that Bush started. He supposedly is doing just that against his Military Experts advice. His advisors gave him advice on how to win or stabilize the threat in the region. He wants no part of stabilization. His spots have not changed. He began his political career like minded with Bill Ayers( a bomber and murder). Ayers wanted to destabilize America using terroristic tactics in the 60′s. Obama is supporting those same tactics in the region to destabilize the world. Ayers purpose in the 60′s for America was Socialism/Communism. Obama’s purpose is the same only more grandiose( the world). Open Society or One World Order are code for Socialism/Communism.

      TOMFERRARI, I then suggest that you pay more attention to Jeb when he opens his mouth on the news these days. Just this morning he was saying that “He used to be a conservative.” That statement alone gave me goose bumps. I had never believed him to be a conservative except maybe in the same vain as Teddy Roosevelt. One of the fathers of modern day progressiveness. Jeb’s self proclamations lately just lead me to believe that like his father and brother, he would boil the frog slowly as Beck defined McCain’s attitude to the presidency. Yep, he made a better governor of Florida than many much like Romeny made a better governor in Mass. than those around him at the time. I am in no way smearing Jeb, he is doing that job better than anybody else could.

      I don‘t believe anyone claims that the Bushs were ’conservatives’ but compared to obango, they were regular George Washingtons, fiscally.

      I’m not a fan of communism, socialism or any other form of nanny state. I don’t want to have to wonder if my progeny, for generations, are going to be slaves to some despotic government. But, they will be, now. For sure.

      Sans the world economic collapse and reordering that looms on the horizon, of course.

      The REAL concern “IS” what have we learned? Sadly, if we could wipe the slate clean today, I‘d bet you before the end of the year we’d be considerable ways toward reestablishing the EXACT same mess, only worse.
      Because I’m willing to bet you everything I own (which ain’t a lot, so you might not want to take this bet) and become your personal manservant until the day I die, that the ONLY thing we ‘learn’ “IS” how to be more devious and conniving about how to steal money again. And instantly, we’d be careening toward the same exact stretch of road.

    Bush told the Washington Post: “I am a conservative and I think we should be offering a compelling, optimistic vision and plan to deal with our structural problems as a nation.”

    The problem with what he’s saying is that he thinks the government can solve our problems. It can’t. Only the people can, and that can only be done by each of us personally aligning ourselves with true principles, and scaling government back to it’s basic functions: to preserve life, liberty (choice), and property (the results of our personal efforts). Too many in government think that taking a middle road is the answer. It isn’t, and ‘middle’ isn‘t ’middle’ anymore. It’s the Overton Window affect.

    If you want a quick-read book that will really change your perspective on what government has the right to do, read “The Law” by Frederic Bastiat. The MP3 and PDF versions can be downloaded free online:

In the most recent case it was “home ownership for all”. Whether you earned it or deserved on merit mattered not. Then, when it crashed down the government REWARDS the bad decisions by the home owners, banks, auto companies, and wall street executives.

    Fortunately, for those with political leanings toward the right, they will discover finally that the more extreme views and policies their party holds will only alienate them on the national stage. Red states, blue states, it matters not, right wing extremist views are not what the majority of Americans hold as their own. Even the most centrist of republican candidates, Mitt Romney, is currently pandering to a base that has no chance of getting him elected to the Presidency. For Christ’s sake he can only muster at best a third of what is less than half of the electorate. Conservatives like to profess that this is a conservative nation and while on some issues like fiscal responsibility that may in fact be true, they can’t seem to grasp the concept that to a greater degree on social issues this country is liberal to librarian. Conservatives have a crisis of identity right now and they can’t find the pragmatism in their own philosophy to develop the vision of leadership it takes to move forward, they can’t seem to figure out for the lives of them, that for all intents and purposes, our time on this planet is linear and progress requires, from time to time, that cooperation has it’s merits. Doing nothing isn’t an option.

    I was skeptical of Jeb before and this just confirms his “RINO” scaredy cat, clueless Establishment eliteism…just like the rest of the family, McCain, etc….afraid of the MSM, can’t say anything “negative”…sheesh!
    If they think he would be a good candidate – wrong. There would be even MORE against him than are against Romney no doubt No – we need to have more talk about the healthy FEAR we should have about our country on the verge of disappearing…and the passionate emotions to go along with it in order to actually take action. I can‘t believe these guys still don’t get it but I don’t think they do…or have chosen to live in denial.

      The whole Bush family represents mainstream Democrats more than they do Republicans. Well-intentioned big government types. They’re safe enough to have in power, as they are moral people, with morals that most of America can identify with. However, they are unscrupulous when it comes to government power. They ignore Constitutional restrictions, willing to sell our liberties to accomplish their “forward looking vision” to improve the lives of Americans. Yet, they do not account for the unethical way in which the structure of government they create assumes power over the lives of Americans. Worse still, they ignore that when they aren’t in power whatever Obama or Clinton or Carter comes along can use the power structure they have created to transform our country into a authoritarian collectivist dystopian nightmare.

      AMEN. If Republicans want to have any chance, they need to start embracing libertarian ideas. Most Americans are sick of both Republicans and Democrats, which they see as two sides of the same statist coin. Now is the time for Republicans to make the debate one about individual liberty vs state control, rather than red vs blue. The only Republican candidate that goes far enough in that effort is Ron Paul.
