Speaking Spanish (and Conservative), Bush Declares Presidential Bid

Vowing to fix “the static capital of a dynamic country,” former Florida Governor Jeb Bush launched his campaign in Miami on Monday to win an office once held by his father and brother.

At a time when Republicans know that they must win over more Hispanic voters if they’re to take the White House, Bush emphasized his Hispanic ties--his marriage to a Mexican national, his fluency in Spanish and his deep roots in Miami, America’s gateway to Latin America. He had a diverse set of speakers introduce him, including his son, George P. Bush, the Texas land commissioner, who spoke in Spanish for part of his address. Jeb Bush himself spoke in Spanish and promised immigration reform.

Jeb doesn’t even fake conservative as well as RINO Romney.

[longfellow]

Just the fact that he said it in Spanish pisses me off. Stop bowing down to the illegals you douche.

[ecomcon]

So sick of anti white racism. Jebutante.

Jeb doesn’t even fake conservative as well as RINO Romney.

Romney claimed to be "severely conservative", a phrase no real conservative has ever used except when quoting Mitt. Jeb is, as you say, worse. Supporting Amnesty and supporting the idea of rewarding criminals for their crimes is not a conservative position; it's classic big government liberalism with strong ties to crony capitalism.

At a time when Republicans know that they must win over more Hispanic voters ...
BS BS BS. Romney lost the 2012 election - not because of the black/Hispanic vote - but because millions of Republicans stayed home.
Obviously, the Spanish speaking Jeb Bush didn't get that message.

I may not vote for president in the next election if the GOPe gets its way.

[Flintlock]

Speaking conservative with a FORKED TONGUE!

[Redleg Duke]

Neither did the GOPe. They seem to think that Conservatives “have” to vote Republican.

I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY hate to say this - but if comes down to Bush and Hitlery, I'll vote Bush.
Øbama has started this country down the path of ruin and a President Hitlery will shove us down that path at the speed of light - and over the edge.
The only way America recovers is a Walker/Cruz combo.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

And conservative??????? Who the Hell are they talking about?

[nonliberal]

but if comes down to Bush and Hitlery, I'll vote Bush. Then you are part of the problem.

Personally I admire anyone who attempts to communicate in a foreign language with which they are completely unfamiliar.

This is certainly the case when old Jebby speaks “Conservative”.

[Cry if I Wanna]

I just love Jeb and can’t wait for him to be our first Spanish speaking president!!!

... Just kidding Freepers!!!

So, you will feel better that, instead of ludicrous speed, we’ll go over the edge at light speed instead?

Between a sh!t sandwich made of horse and cow, you’ll settle for the one with less calories?

At what point does the Right FINALLY just shut-it-down, instead of playing Kabuki Theatre with D.C.? Yeah, THAT’LL show ‘em come election time...How’d that philosophy work out in the past??
