Jeb Bush Bashes Huckabee: ‘Oven Door’ Comment ‘Just Wrong’
Mediate ^ | 2:11 pm, July 27th, 2015 | Alex Griswold

Posted on 07/27/2015 4:41:33 PM PDT by Red Steel

Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush called out fellow GOP contender Mike Huckabee for saying President Barack Obama was marching Israelis to “the door of the oven” with the Iran deal, calling his comments “unfortunate” and “just wrong.”

“The Iran deal is horrific, and it creates far more dangers and problems than it solves,” Bush said at an event in an Orlando church. “But I think we need to tone down the rhetoric for sure.”

“Look, I’ve been to Israel not as many times as Mike Huckabee, who I respect,” he said. “But the use of that kind of language, it’s just wrong. This is not the way we’re going to win elections, that’s not how we’re going to solve problems.“

“So, unfortunate remark, not quite sure why he felt compelled to say it. Having said that, this is a bad deal and I can see why people are angry about it.”

Jeb, think Huck is more concerned with saving Israeli life’s than he is with saving some stupid election.

Yup.

It is incredibly wrong that America is ruled by a bigot who hates Jews enough to deserve Huckabee’s comment. I don’t see how it was wrong for Huckabee to tell the truth.

Decent people from my grandparents’ generation took four years to reach the camps and stop Hitler’s Final Solution. With Iranian nukes, decent people from our generation will have almost no time at all before an even worse Holocaust leaves antisemitic Democrats jumping for joy.

Jebito is right. Huck’s comments were a bit on the tmid end. But I’m sure he meant well.

Just posted by Ol' Huck:

Hillary Clinton came out of hiding today to attack my comments on Iran, calling them "unacceptable", but what's truly unacceptable is a mushroom cloud over Israel. How many times will Iran's leaders call for Israel's annihilation before Hillary wakes up to this existential threat? How many murdered Israelis will it take for Hillary to express as much outrage at Iran as she did at my defense of Israel? The policy of my administration will be "never again" and when the phone rings at 3 A.M. I won't tell the American people "what difference does it make?" I will stand with Israel against Iranian evil.

The boy has a way with words.

The only rational Iranian I ever met was a Persian who came from Reza Pahlavi's government. Of course, it wouldn't have been like I'd meet a number of women.

It was idiot Jimmy Carter and his constant prattling about "human rights" that made me start to suspect there was a reason why every "successful" government ruling over Muslims is a Dictatorship of one form or another.

As time went on, I realized that you cannot have the sort of government that we would consider normal here. They and We have entirely different foundational assumptions about people and religion. Islam is a massive hierarchy with Allah at the top and everyone in their proper pecking order below.

This Christian concept of "equality" is simply incomprehensible to their social structure. Everyone must have a master or superior that ranks higher than them on their theological scale.

Anyways, the Shah was the best thing for Iran, and Jimmy Carter was an idiot to push his stupid human rights agenda when the only thing keeping the country under control was the willingness of the Shah to let his SAVAK do what needed to be done. The Theocracy killed in one year more people than the Shah had in his entire rule.

And now the New and Improved Jimmy Carter of Stupid and that silly Kerry-traitor-bastard are about to let these fanatics have Atomic weapons?

Again, a bit on the timid end. But not bad. He should’ve used terms like “i’m glad the hildabeast left her coven and found some time from the hard work of deleting e-mails to comment on my remarks...”

Talk about thick skulls!

A few of the (R) dwarfs, all of the (D)ummies, and most of the same set of MSM talking heads are now repeating something they just went through the past two weeks.

Back then it was ignoring tens of millions of illegal alien invaders and instead obsessing over the guy talking about it.

Now it is ignoring the actual words of an Islamic regime promising another holocaust and instead obsessing over the guy talking about it ... again.

This one is even more astonishing because they are literally saying: "Oh relax, yeah Iran might be saying they will 'kill all the Jews' but they really don't mean it". Some are even smiling on TV when they say it! You can't make this stuff up.

All Huckabee has to do is stand his ground or double down and he will own them all. Even better, now we get another bite of this apple and get to pester the (R)INOs some more, putting them on the spot and making them take a stand for Israel.

The (R)INOs summer of hell continues!

I’m not even a Jeb hater, but I’m so alarmed by the wishy washiness of our “leadership”. Why the Hell can’t Hiuckabee say that? How is it morally “wrong”?

Many people object to calling Gaza an "open air prison" and equating it to the Warsaw Ghetto. Should this be allowed?

I like Jeb. He was a good governor.

That said, he’s doing lousy right now. Nobody will vote for another Bush and he spends more time bashing Republicans than Democrats.

Nothing has really change in 80 years, what Hitler started with the backing of Islam, Islam intends to finish, I believe God has other plans!

Apparently it hasn’t yet occurred to Jebster that republican ‘toned down rhetoric’ is why the republican base is so attracted to Donald Trump.
