Jeb Bush: We will lose our liberties if we control the border
American Thinker ^ | 2/5/15 | Pedro Gonzales

Posted on 06/05/2015 6:29:32 AM PDT by jimbo123

Jeb Bush made a series of astonishing remarks about immigration Wednesday. Actually, his comments were not so much about immigration as they were about illegal aliens.

First he said he wanted to repopulate Detroit with illegal aliens.

It just seems to me that maybe if you open up our doors in a fair way and unleashed the spirit of peoples' hard work, Detroit could become in really short order, one of the great American cities again," Bush said then. "Now it would look different, it wouldn't be Polish...But it would be just as powerful, just as exciting, just as dynamic. And that's what immigration does and to be fearful of this, it just seems bizarre to me.

Now, if we were talking about legal immigration, I would probably agree. But I think you and I both know whom Jeb was talking about "opening the doors" for. Illegal aliens are already roosting in our inner cities in the millions. Jeb simply wants to accelerate the process. But wait, there's more.

He said, during a discussion with Univision, that it was "ridiculous" to think that DREAMers, children brought to the U.S. by their parents illegally, shouldn't have an "accelerated path" to citizenship.

-snip-

But here's the most incredible statement:

Other comments included that Bush declared that "it's not possible in a free country to completely control the border without us losing our freedoms and liberties."

Bears repeating.

“Jeb Bush: We will lose our liberties if we control the border”

War is Peace. Freedom is Slavery. The TPP will be a boon for the American middle class.

Geez, Jeb just keeps getting worse and worse. His propensity to spout inane, moronic statements rivals even Obama’s. No, Jeb, we are going to lose everything if we don’t put a stop to this rampant, indiscriminate illegal immigration.

Yet we seem to be losing them because of our open border.

Just think - this is the most likely GOP Presidential Candidate.

Between demographics (even if the GOP flips Florida, North Carolina and Ohio they still lose) and a lousy front runner, it looks like the 2016 election is the Democrat Candidate’s to lose.

If the democrat party is looking for an alternative to Hillary, Jeb is their candidate.

“But it would be just as powerful, just as exciting, just as dynamic. And that’s what immigration does and to be fearful of this, it just seems bizarre to me.”

Jeb, you idiot, why haven’t those “aspirational youth” been “just as exciting, just as dynamic” in their native countries? Why do they have to wait and come here to blossom?

This asswipe will just keep taking the same position - just from “fresh” angles.

Hey Jeb, no matter how thin you slice it, it’s still baloney!

A week or so ago there were some reports that about 25% of the citizenry of Mexico was already in the USA.

What border?

Barbara must have dropped Baby Jebby on his head a few times more than we suspected.

He seems to make less sense the more he opens his mouth.

I think Jeb stumbled upon his kids’ drug stashes and is now partaking of those substances.

Yep. Lived in central Florida through high school. Many trips to Miami. At fast-food drive-thrus, one is greeted in Spanish.
