    Default EVERYONE needs to read this emailed exchange with Jeb Bush... What a dirtbag!

    Alrighty, this seems to be a completely unfounded smear attempt. My bad. Read at your own risk...






    http://conservativefrontline.com/jeb-bush-hopes-dont-see-email/


    Jeb Bush may soon be regretting the release of 250,000 emails from his tenure as Florida’s governor. Billed as a move to define his likely presidential campaign as transparent and transformative, it may instead simultaneously shatter his support from the more conservative Tea Party branch of his party as well as hispanic voters who support his pro-immigration stance. Upon initial review of the massive email collection, the National Report has already identified at least one email exchange that shines an unpleasant light on the former governor. The email is an exchange between former Governor Bush and a top aide who was commenting on criticisms of the former Governor’s immigration stance. It is dated near the end of his tenure as governor.


    The exchange begins with a short note from an advisor, whose name is partially redacted for privacy reasons. It states:
    Governor,
    We’re receiving a lot of messages from constituents (lots of Tea Partiers) who want you to take a more conservative approach on immigration policy. Do you want me to put together a general response for them? -A

    Governor Bush’s Response:
    No, don’t issue anything to them. Just ignore them. The thing that these idiot tea baggers don’t understand is that the Republican party needs those brown votes. We can’t survive without them. We’ve already screwed ourselves at the darkest end of the color wheel; we can’t afford to do that again. If these uptight white guys from the midwest are so worried that a Mexican is going to come steal their job, then maybe they should get off their fat asses and get a better education. If we can put some things in place that make it easier for immigrants, and convince them we are on their side (who cares if we really are) we will essentially be importing votes. We can’t let the dems beat us to that.

    True, but some are much worse than others. I certainly wouldn't put Cruz and Feinstein on the same level of political dirtiness.

    Yeah I'm not surprised by this at all. Don't hate the player, hate the game!

    Kind of kidding. Kind of why All the King's Men by Robert Penn Warren should be required reading for high school AND college.

    You'd think this would be front-page news on every liberal media outlet in the country yet I can't find anything on it (other than the linked story in the OP). Not saying it isn't true but...I'm definitely skeptical. And before anyone asks...I'm not a fan of Jeb Bush at all.

    I'm skeptical too... we'll see if it holds. It certainly wouldn't surprise me at all...

    They are waiting until it matters, like if after he receives the nomination and is ahead in the polls. They want a weak republican nominee so Clinton's wife is elected.

    If you're skeptical, why post it? Why help the Dems spread disinformation?
