‘Clinton Cash’ Author Peter Schweizer Is Targeting Jeb Bush Next

From Joshua Green writing at Bloomberg Politics:

The past week can’t have been very pleasant for Peter Schweizer. On Sunday, the New York Times revealed that his forthcoming book, Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and Why Foreign Governments and Businesses Helped Make Bill and Hillary Rich, was roiling the political world—“the most anticipated and feared book of a presidential cycle still in its infancy,” as the Times put it.

That landed Schweizer squarely in the crosshairs of the Clinton team and allied liberal groups, which have launched a campaign to discredit Schweizer as “disreputable” and blinded by partisan animosity. Anyone familiar with Schweizer’s work knows better: he wrote a well-regarded book about the Bush dynasty and another, detailing insider trading in Congress, that led to a new law, the bipartisan STOCK Act of 2012, which aims to curb these abuses.

That hasn’t quieted the left-wing clamor that Schweizer is simply out to get Hillary Clinton. But maybe this will: Schweizer is working on a similar investigation of Jeb Bush’s finances that he expects to publish this summer.

Go right on ahead, the conservative base of the GOP doesn’t really much like the “Jebster”, especially after the way he bungled the Terri Schiavo thing.

Maybe we need to start a 3rd party “Security Service” that is crowdfunded to protect people doing the good work of exposing corruption. We could hire veterans and former Secret Service members and be more profession that the Obama Secret service.

“Jeb is a rino” is his point. Pretty sure.

Yep, if I was him I would do a Salman Rushdie and go into hiding because the only thing more dangerous than a Fatwah is being in the Arkancide crosshairs.

I DESPISE ALL OF THE BUSHES!

While I am not enamored with many things GW did, or many of his positions, I am profoundly thankful that he was in the White House and not Manbearpig! I don't want to see another Bush,Clinton, Obama in the Oval Office ever, but will settle for my and my children's lifetimes.

The more I learn about the history of the Bush family the more I have come to realize that the only bush that was halfway decent was W but as his presidency went by he spoiled himself with the whole Bank bailout debacle.

Everyone else was either involved in the government as “spooks” ie George HW Bush, or involved in dubious things like the Nazi’s gold and such by Prescott Bush (George HW’s Father). Then you have the whole Neil Bush silverado savings and loan scandals. And the Jebster with his immigration stands and his commie core connections.

It shows a HUGE pattern of “Government Cronyism” endemic with the family that will likely never stop.

His claims against Jeb will probably stick more than his claims against Hillary, but only if and when Jeb gets the nomination. Until then, they will be ignored.

Which might be a good idea because frankly, American do NOT want a de facto royal family at the highest levels of government. That's why the Republican voter base is energized by Ted Cruz's nomination and the Democrats are holding their noses on supporting Hillary Clinton.

He should write a book about the TRUE source of problems in the GOP.
John McCain and his collusion with Harry Reid and the DNC.
