The country is petty much done for now.

Some 30 million plus illegals is enough to create some 50 congressional districts and they don’t even need to vote to do it. Its pretty obvious that neither party has any intent to do anything and even FReepers are now screeching to shut up about immigration.

IMO there is an attitude of entitlement among the Bushes, they are destined to rule and Jeb is setting the table for his son.

Of course he's irritated there are those of us who are complicating his family vision by our determination to see the law enforced.

Combined with what happened yesterday, this is all part of a coordinated assault on the right by the GOP. Bush will not go away - he stands at the very epicenter of the party we're trying to attach the conservative movement to. It's his and Mitt's and Christy's and Boehner’s party. In four or eight years, the they will install him as the GOP’s next nominee, order conservatives to vote for the lesser of two evils and then shut up.

This is our future in the GOP.

Jeb “Open Borders” Bush might need to follow Charlie Crist right on over to the party that supports his views.

RE :” Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) on Tuesday said Republicans aren’t going to close the gap with Hispanic voters until they “stop acting stupid.”
Bush said many Hispanic voters share the GOP’s commitment to faith, family and small government but have been alienated from the party by exclusionary rhetoric on immigration. But that, he said, is finally changing
....
Bush, whose wife is Hispanic, told The Hill that while jobs and education are the most important issues for the Latino community, more inclusive language and policies would be “an important symbol that shows sensitivity” for their concerns.

Amnesty ping!

Speaking of stupid Jeb, your brother GW managed to get 99% of Hispanics to vote Dem after he started a civil war in the party over amnesty and after his (GWB) affordable housing initiatives resulted in massive for-closures in NV, AZ, NM and Florida, all high illegal alien states. Sure, some voted for GWB when they got those new houses they couldnt afford and eventually lost. That's all that counts right Jeb? One election?

I don’t know why people are whining. Romney is no different on immigration.

Resorting to name calling...think how I tell you or you are stupid. Republicans will be acting stupidly if they don’t listen to American citizens, Not Jeb Bush.

By Jeb's reasoning, the GOP should also reach out to drunk drivers, people who abandon their pets and chronic jaywalkers too?

"Stay outta da Bushes!"

exactly, if he is on the top of the ticket, we will get the same “get him in the white house, and then hold his feet to the fire” argument.

little do they know the rest of the liberal “big tent” that has infected the party already have his feet in a bucket of lava.

worry about it until after the election? “after” will never come, and hasn’t since Reagan.

Jeb Bush is a disgusting coward and a fraud, and the MSM is more than happy to allow him that latitude. He periodically pops his head up and blathers about how the GOP must “change its tone” on immigration and about how the party is “acting stupid”.

But he is never pinned down to make specific proposals because he and the MSM know that his specific proposals would cause an uproar and would damage his purpose of pretending to offer “wise” councel while being too cowardly to get to the details. Both Jebbie and the MSM are content to continue with the high minded criticism while avoiding the messy details.
