“...Gov. Jeb Bush urged President Trump on Tuesday to act as a voice for “moral clarity” and more forcefully reject racism and hate groups.”

He did, Yeb. He did.

Jeb, Why don’t you run for President again? I am sure that would go well. Or run for the Senate and be the next John McCain. This guy is such a loser.

Jeb Bush is the veritable font of Moral Clarity.

Terry Schiavo

And then this mere bagetelle from The Nation Constitution Center:

The 2013 NCC Freedom Medal presented to Hillary Clinton September 10, 2013, the eve of the first anniversary of the Benghazi Slaughter.

"And former Florida governor Jeb Bush is presenting the award to her, not reluctantly, but willingly. After all, he’s the NCC Chairman:

“Former Secretary Clinton has dedicated her life to serving and engaging people across the world in democracy,” Bush, the NCC’s chairman, said in a statement announcing the award. “These efforts as a citizen, an activist, and a leader have earned Secretary Clinton this year’s Liberty Medal.”

Even Hillary couldn't keep a straight face during Jeb's speech.

Jeb Bush, the lode stone for those in search of moral clarity. /sarc

Jen Bush wants more “moral clarity?!” Now there’s a ( bitter, ironic) laugh if there ever was one. Him, Nancy pelousy, and about 2 dozen more political hacks have ruined our country’s public morality ——

He really is stupid. An utterly overwhelmed mediocrity pretending he has anything to contribute.

Yup, all the losers (Jeb, McCain, Romney) lining up against Trump. They really appear vile and pathetic.

Here’s some moral clarity:

Jeb Bush murdered Terri Schiavo.

Yes, here’s your moral clarity, Jeb:

A group of people apply for a permit to gather and to petition the government for redress of grievances (in this case, the renaming of a park and the removal of a statue).

The permit is granted.

Some time later, the permit is revoked by the issuing authority and the gathering is ordered to be relocated to a site away from the statue, which is of great symbolic importance to the speakers and to their intended audience.

A Federal judge hears their case and issues a restraining order to annul the revocation of the permit on the grounds that the issuing authority sought to restrain speech because of viewpoint discrimination.

The speakers arrive at the permitted location at the permitted time.

They are greeted by an angry mob, armed with clubs, small explosives (M-80s), and noxious chemicals and bodily fluids. The police who were supposed to protect the speakers and their audience are withdrawn by local and state authorities, and the speakers and their audience are attacked, beaten, sprayed with chemicals and bodily fluids, and the permitted political speech is prevented.

The leaders of the mob declare that the intended speech, by itself, constitutes violence against them, and that their hundreds of assaults and (in at least one case) the blinding of a speaker with bleach/ammonia constitutes legitimate self-defense.

The governor of Virginia and the mayor appear to agree with the leaders of the mob.

Now, Jeb: Pay close attention. DO YOU AGREE THAT POLITICAL SPEECH IS VIOLENCE? DO YOU AGREE THAT WHETHER OR NOT IT IS VIOLENCE IS SUBJECTIVE? DO YOU AGREE THAT THE REVOLUTIONARY COMMUNIST MOVEMENT (AS OPPOSED TO THE RELEVANT FEDERAL COURT) IS THE APPROPRIATE ARBITER OF THESE QUESTIONS?

Well?

Moral clarity affirms that violence is a choice that should be condemned just as much when Side B does it as when Side C does it.

I’m surprised Jeb had the energy to type this missive.
