Bush broke Iraq far beyond repair. I don't know if it will ever be a functional entity again. Biggest foreign policy blunder in American history. Worse than Vietnam IMHO.

Maybe not worse than the overthrowing of legitimate democracy in Iran.

But whoever hears about that? :hmm:

I wasn't aware of that. When did that happen?

1953 Iranian coup d'état

 

[Sonikku]

It was a big factor in the religious fanatics taking the country over and chanting death to America. They went so far as to storm our embassy that the plot was being concocted in. I guess they hold a grudge?

Or maybe they're just backwater fanatics we need to bomb. :hmm:

Don't forget about Guatemala. And then Chile.

The Dulles brothers are Wall St. operatives, which is to say, the CIA is Wall St.

Looks like Stealth Bush is the Establishment flavor of the day so far.

If you consider fourth place "flavor of the day".

 

[Hugo Drax]

He is at 4th place but he will do better once the others drop out and coalesce around trump. Stealth mode will end next time.

I picture Jeb! leading a parade of people chanting "We also ran! We also ran!"

Well . . . a small, sad parade. But with very nice gift bags. $2,888 each in Iowa if memory serves.

No more Bushes. No more Clintons either, but we've already had TWO Bushes.

 

[Jeffg010]

I heard that Jerry Mathers was going to be bush's running mate when he wins the nomination.

Their slogan will be "Bush and Beaver we can't be beat. Bush and Beaver we're real neat!"

That would look great on a sign.

It's already worse.

"Please clap..."

Yeah he probably meant it as some endearing self-deprecating humor, but he was just a little too genuine there. Poor guy.

 

[bshole]

Jeb actually made a comeback of sorts in NH.

It's already worse.

I hope he stays in. Youtube is getting some great footage.

He comes across as a dork in that one not as bad as the please clap video. Not a fan of clinton or bush but at least he comes across as human.

 

[Indus]

Well it's official.

False Prediction.

Bush drops out & suspends his campaign!

I don't wanna say I told you so but I did.. tell.. you.. so! :biggrin:

 

[Humpy]

Well, there is always next time, which is what this thread is about anyways.

 

[compuwiz1]

This thread has run it's course.

Sorry, Hugo!

 

[UberNeuman]

I've got a riddle for everyone.

Who's named Jeb! Bush and won't be nominated and win the next presidential election?

\anyone want to take a guess?

 

[Ruptga]

Well it's official.

False Prediction.

Bush drops out & suspends his campaign!

I don't wanna say I told you so but I did.. tell.. you.. so! :biggrin:

Much to the surprise of literally no one, including the OP who was trolling us all along...

And this is why I did not even cast a vote for this poll. Politics is too complex to predict without a lot of research and analysis, and even then it is often off, from just inaccurate to nowhere even near on the same planet.

I was convinced Jeb would win, boy was I wrong. All that money didn't do shit for him.

 

[Brian Stirling]

From day one Jeb! looked like he was only doing it because he thought he had to. I'm not sure his heart was ever in it and I suspect that a few years from now when insiders begin to tell the story it will be revealed, much as we imagined, that Jeb! was put up to it by the R insiders that wanted another puppet in the White House.

I'd long thought Jeb! was the smarter of the two and maybe he is, but that's not saying much now is it.

In the end not even the Republican faithful couldn't stomach another Bush. Well, he does still have a personal fortune of many millions so I don't think he'll be hurtin.

This puts it down to Trump, Cruz and Rubio and man I'm not sure which of these qualifies as the lesser of the three evils.

Gee, I don't know about that, Wally. "Ward, hope you weren't too hard on the Beaver"
