House Speaker John Boehner signaled support for former Florida Governor Jeb Bush to run for president during a press conference on Monday.
Jeb Bush is my friend, Boehner said. "I think hed make a great president. And Ive been nudging him for some time.
Boehner made his remarks during a Q&A session with Texas Tribune at the San Antonio Chamber of Commerce. Boehner also asserted that a majority of Republicans were interested in immigration reform, even though some were blocking the issue.
There are some members of my party that just do not want to deal with this, Boehner said. Its no secret. But I do believe the vast majority of members of our party do want to deal with this.

Well, Jeb chose great parents... like Andrew Cuomo and all those Kennedy’s did... Takes a lot of brains to pick the right parents. What’s his next trick?
There you have it, the fix is in.
Again
oh that’s easy. He will make the phrase “Well He’s a lot more conservative than Romney” the most popular phrase on the Right leading up to his crowning as the GOP candidate.
Followed by a great wailing and gnashing of teeth when he loses to Clinton. Followed by blamestorming at conservatives that won’t vote for another liberal Republican.
Bank on it.
NO MORE BUSHES! They have GOT to be kidding. No liberal, indepent, or conservative will vote for him. Most RINOs won’t either. Who does that leave? Candidate named Bush = Shoe-in for Hillary.
This ‘clown’ became (or becomes) somewhat of a Conservative (or at least APPEARS to drop the e from GOPe on command.
Like a good little puppet.
When he was seemingly going to get a little opposition he decided to ‘get tough’ on IRS and Bengazi.
Once he got ‘in’, he went back to his e ways.....
While I don’t ‘push’ or suggest voting D, this is a case where ALL the disgruntled R’s etc either have a massive write in candidate or BETTER YET, put up with a D for a couple of years...just on the premise of getting rid of Boner.
Politics, indeed, makes strange bedfellows BUT sometimes drastic measures are required.
As stated before, the only way we are going to ‘dislodge’ the GOPe is for R’s and Conservatives to NOT VOTE for the e.
Until they get their collective butts kicked a couple of times, they will claim they are ‘’’’this close’’’’, not admitting that a LOT of people held their nose for McCain and Romney...
Condemning with faint praise.
There is one reason possible the GOP would run Bush. One. No one wants to admit it and they make fun of people who say it. But it is true.
They want Hillary to win.
There is no logical reason to run a man that will alienate everyone on his name alone, much less on the actual facts of his record. Unless you intend to lose. So until one GOP sycophant explains why running a guaranteed loser is in the positive interest of the GOP or the country, then the assertion stands unchallenged.
Apparently. Well, years ago she used to be a Republican, I think, in her youth, so that's probably the GOP's rationale. Isn't that good enough for you???? *ducking*
This, from a guy who sucks as Speaker of the House! Yea, Right!
I’d vote for her before I voted for Bush. Of course I would vote for almost any cartoon character before that so they both may be waiting a while. ;)
that boat just left the dock a few days ago.
No Bonehead. He’d only make about as crummy a president as you have been a congressman. Cry baby.
Do these people ever listen to themselves, there is no way this country will elect another Bush. A Jeb Bush candidacy with be a giant cluster and end in defeat, possibly the end of the GOP,
Just so. In the world of Presidential politics, today's Republican Party are the Washington Generals to the Democrat Party's Harlem Globetrotters.
Boehner
You blow and i will never again vote a bush again.
He'd be better than Romney or Jeb!
That is just too funny...and sad at the same time.
Priceless!
