George W. Bush Donors Embrace Jeb Bush Candidacy Family’s fundraising network mobilizes to push a third Bush presidency By CHRISTOPHER S. STEWART And ROB BARRY July 21 Republican Jeb Bush rounded up donations in the first 15 days of his presidential campaign from at least 136 top-tier donors to his brother, former President George W. Bush, signaling that the family’s vaunted fundraising network is quickly mobilizing to push a third Bush presidency.
Those donors—dubbed Pioneers and Rangers for raising around $100,000 or at least $200,000 in the 2000 and 2004 presidential campaigns—gave Jeb Bush at least $350,000 of the $11.4 million he collected through June 30, according to a report...

This just makes me want to scream. I hate hate hate hate this! Whatever happened to our republic. The Bushes and appear to have established themselves as ruling royal families, and they have no shame whatsoever about this, just huge egos. How could things have gotten like this in less than one lifetime?
Trump could buy, sell, or ruin most of these chump GOPe supporters with pocket change.
Cruz will out-raise all of them. Easily.
The GOPe is scared. I love it.
Daddy Bush wasn’t kidding about a New World Order.....
I just don’t know anyone who supports this clown.
You can’t really blame the Bush’s..
I often listen to New York media and these donors and supporters are of the pragmatic moderate republican base, and they all talk alike, think alike attack Trump, Cruz, the tea party and talk up Jeb.
There is not another candidate they would vote for, simply because Jeb is one of them.
I think he stole that from Truman.
Embrace the loss.
Waste that money, Bush fools.
They all want to make it happen....
I mean all the Bushes. And then of course, folks on both sides of the aisle, too.
What? I’m shocked by this revelation! Can’t we just forget about the Bushes? America does not want another Bush or another Clinton so get over it! (Of course I do not include Dana Perino as she seems to be irreconcilable).
She has, for the Five, become the leading and probably the most obnoxious panel member because of her association with the Bush family. She either has to tone it down tremendously or get off the five during the election as it is becoming a great distraction to upcoming election.
Step down Dana...
GW Bush needs to stick to painting puppies and clowns, or licking the hands of Saudi princes, or whatever the hell it is that he does these days.
Wow! Right out of the old Soviet play book.
The Soviets seemed to loved those words......Pioneers and/or Rangers....
IF the Bushs really want to "Pioneer" something why don't they "Pioneer" a "Return To The Constitution"?
IF they can't or won't do that then they can pound sand!
All the money in the world won’t buy my vote because it is not for sale. The same principle which opposes Kennedy and Clinton political dynasties also opposes Bush dynasties. I actually think Jeb Bush is a decent guy - not a true Conservative by any stretch, but perhaps the best of the three - but I will not vote for him. We fought a war for independence from dynastic rule, and I will not cast my vote for its effective return. No more Bushes.
Well, it’s not a personality thing with me but it’s their continued attempt to move left to appease enough of the crowd to watch (ratings is the thing ya know).
I’m okay with that up to a point but when facts get lost in the bipartisan shuffle than I’m gone. I have to say though that of the news out there, FOX is still the only one that provides at least the other side so I still watch it and not the others (at all). That is beginning to wane though as most news show including the Five have become too far left appeasing for me... Damn the leftist media for dragging all of these stations to the left - or could it be just that advertisers want left positions - what a dilemma!
That does not mean that I will remain a watcher though as they continue to track left for some reason (maybe they think that the Mexican implosion is going to cost them viewership if they don’t cater to them). Anyway, at the rate all news is going, it will soon be Spanish anyway so don’t fret it...
All of the money in the world won’t get this chump elected. Go ahead and waste it, donors. The jig is up.
