<snip>

"…. This election isn't about victory for victory's sake. For George, the presidency is a charge to keep. He makes the tough decisions - even when they're not popular - because that was the solemn vow he made to the American people. Our president stands on principle and fights for America's security. Because of it, he has been vilified by the Democrats, by the media, and by Hollywood. Tuesday is when you make your voice heard.

''In less than a week, our commitment will be counted in votes. In this fight, we cannot afford to fall short - not by a single vote - or very soon we will see the consequences in a weaker war on terror and a future of guaranteed, automatic tax increases. With Congress on the line, it's time to stand side-by-side with our president and elect leaders he can work with to defend America. We won't allow this good man's presidency to be obstructed by a Democrat Congress with an agenda of anger and revenge.

"Next Tuesday, we face a serious choice, as serious as any we have ever faced as a country. Please help support our Get-Out-The-Vote effort, make phone calls to voters in key states, and no matter what you do, please make sure you vote. Now more than ever, I'm proud that George W. Bush is my president. Please join me in standing with him and our Republican candidates for this final drive to victory.

"Sincerely,
Jeb Bush''

1. Wait a minute! Wasn't it the *ss who went after Saddam because

he tried to kill poppy?

15. Not quite correct according to

J.H. Hatfield, author of "Fortunate Son"

on p. 258 there is a footnote that states the following:

"In 1991, Bush , his wife, and their young daughters, received round-the-clock Secret Service protection after Iraqui dictator Saddam Hussein threatened their lives in retaliation for the elder Bush's presidential role in the Persian Gulf War."

2. how about a little justice... jeb

we're bringing the Constitution back !!!!!!

[ixion]

3. perhaps, jebbie, if your party weren't such a

lame, scum-sucking bag-o-crap, you wouldn't have to worry about such things.

But angry? You're darn tootin' I'm angry. I was brought up to abhor fascism, and I'm sick and tired of watching swallow our republic.

[saltpoint]

4. Jeb's playing his part in the fear-and-smear Republican tactic.

But his last name suggests two miserable presidents, the son even worse than the father, and the father being not that hot to start with.

He'll prompt a few GOP fatcats to write a few checks, but overall I don't think it's going to save the Republican Congress critters who are up against the wall.

A daughter or son killed pointlessly in Iraq trumps misgivings about Nancy Pelosi's homosexual agenda any day of the week.

5. Be gone, ye harbinger of hatred.

[BOSSHOG]

6. Obviously dubya has pictures of little brother (with Katherine Harris?)

Wow, imagine anger towards a guy who deliberately lied and that lie got thousands and thousands killed. Who would have thought it?

[AndyA]

7. Jeb, you're confused once again. It's not anger and revenge.

It's OUTRAGE AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

8. Yes, We have another name for it thou, ~Accountability~

[bluestateguy]

9. reply

Then why has he sat on his hands and not helped the girl who gave his big brother the presidency in 2000? Has he done anything for Kathy Harris?

[Monkeyman]

10. Reason one not to talk about impeachment

In the Chicago Tribune Swamp thats all the Replugs are talking about I hit back saying who said we will impeach not any Democratic leader. Shuts down their talking points right away.

[Kber]

11. The bush family knows all about revenge, doesn't it? nt

[no_hypocrisy]

12. Didn't the Third Reich say something similar when it appeared that

Berlin was about to fall? And that was the reason why Josef and Magda Goebbels POISONED THEIR OWN CHILDREN and committed suicide? Freedom from fascism is usually seen as a fate worse than death.

[Hubert Flottz]

13. Why would anyone be upset at the GOP?

A Conspiracy Nut!

[Epiphany4z]

14. well gee George

tell us why anyone would be angry or want revenge..because Iraq was on up and up? because its going well? because your so Strong on terror? Because Katrina went so well? Because the number of poor and uninsured have just drooped like rocks ? Because everyone wants there phones tapped and the chance to locked up with rights to a court hearing?.....hmmpf go figure.

love how he leaves out why dems might be in that frame of mind.

[BootinUp]

16. assuming the rapture doesn't occur in

the next 7 days, I am really going to enjoy November the 8th.

[ronnykmarshall]

17. Jebbie, shouldn't you be bailing one of you kids out of jail?

[gulfbreeze]

18. What better place to post that my Republican husband

has left the Republican party and will vote a straight Democratic ticket. We live in Florida and I promise this is truly a miracle I NEVER thought could happen. Since the 2000 election (appointment), we disagreed so much politically that at times we would sleep in different rooms. We finally had to agree not to talk politics. I think the crowning blow came when we recently visited Canada on business. He was able to hear reason. I think before this I was so angry when I tried to talk about the problems, it just turned him off. I'm much calmer now and especially when seeing the polls looking so good for Democrats. At this point, there is not one thing that would change his mind and bring him back into the Republican fold. He's had it. Yaaaaaah!!!!!!

21. That's great news

[flyarm]

20. Justice isn't revenge, and the anger is quite justified. - n/t

[NashVegas]

22. Hey Jeb! One Question: What Do Dems Need to Revenge?

Could you list the crime? Do you dare?

[DUgosh]

23. I only wish we had been angry enough

To protest unceasingly about the loss of our freedoms that were so easily taken by the lockstep GOP.

[tanyev]

24. Oh, please, Jeb. I don't need anger or revenge.

I'll be very happy with investigations and indictments.

[flordehinojos]

25. jeb bush is full of shit and his words are the most asininely insincere when he says,

"This election isn't about victory for victory's sake. For George, the presidency is a charge to keep. He makes the tough decisions - even when they're not popular - because that was the solemn vow he made to the American people. Our president stands on principle and fights for America's security. Because of it, he has been vilified by the Democrats, by the media, and by Hollywood. Tuesday is when you make your voice heard."

for George the presidency is a "charge to steal".

George runs away from tough decisions and lets "poppy, cheney, rumsfeld and others" make decisions.
George just puts up the bush face in front of the deceitfulness and decisions which are devastating this country.
George stands on principle to fight for America's fall into fascism.
and because of it he is dutifully and rightfully criticized by some Democrats, very few in the media, and a handful of those who've made it in Hollywood. Tuesday is when we make our voices heard even when diebold machines will distort our message, because even if the bushes silence our voices again, they will know that america does not want them, america does not love them, america does not believe in them, and america has wisened up to their bags of deceitfulness and trickery.

[Golden Raisin]

26. And when Starr & the Republicans

implacably went after Bill Clinton during l'affaire Lewinsky, that wasn't anger & revenge? I'm not particularly a fan of either Clinton, but what George W. and his thugs have done to this country and Iraq trump any blowjob. There's a lot of projection and guilt going on here and it's psychologically telling and interesting that Jeb is afraid of and uses the word "revenge".

[SammyWinstonJack]

27. Hey Jeb, why did your brother sat in a Fla classroom for seven minutes

with a "deer in headlights" look on his stupid chimp face while people, Americans among them, were dying at the WTC? Why didn't he order fighter jets to follow the hi-jacked airliners? Why did he do nothing but get out of harm's way, his words, on that day? Why did it take him days and not hours to get to ground zero.

Why did he let an American city drown and Americans die? Why doesn't he ever admits he is wrong? Why did he knowingly lied about Saddam and WMD and Iraq ties to 9/11. Why does he continues to lie?

And why did he take office in the first place, knowing he didn't actually win the '00 election?

And why does he hate us for our freedoms?
