Jeb Bush Responds To Trump: Obama Is An ‘American, He’s A Christian’
By Sean Sullivan. September 18.
MACKINAC ISLAND, Mich. -- Jeb Bush responded Friday night to Donald Trump's decision this week not to correct a questioner who said President Obama is a Muslim who is "not even an American."
"Barack Obama is a talented man -- and by the way he's an American, he's a Christian -- his problem isn't the fact that he was born here or what his faith is," said Bush in a speech here. "His problem is that he's a progressive liberal who tears down anybody that disagrees with him."
At a town hall meeting in New Hampshire on Thursday, Trump did not correct an audience member who said that Obama is a Muslim and "not even an American."
Asked by a reporter after his remarks whether Trump should apologize, Bush said: "I spoke to it. I spoke to it there."
Bush was the first of six presidential hopefuls scheduled to speak at the three-day conference here that began Friday. On Saturday, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, Sen. Ted Cruz (Tex.), former Hewlett Packard chief executive Carly Fiorina, Ohio Gov. John Kasich and Sen. Rand Paul (Ky.) will address the crowd.

I love reading Free Republic. So many creative people posting.
I’m beginning to think the smart Bush is Barbara, no more Bushes.
Man, I thought wtH? I bet I have a good idea what you said to yourself right after you posted that one.LOL
Just how is Trump McCain redux? Is it his position on amnesty?
Why is a Democrat debating in a Republican Party ritual?
LOLOLOLOLOL BTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At this point, none of these candidates need to be coming to Obama’s defense on anything. It’s time for them to say Obama’s a lame duck, passe, on his way out, last year’s model, a has-been. It’s time to look to the future.
Getting that idea into people’s heads might limit some of the potential damage Obama can get done in his remaining days and also — narcissist that he is — really, really tick him off.
I’m sure ¡Jeb! equally appreciates his BFF 0blama’s new Army chief appointment.
Heb! is the new Juan McLame.
Looks like a guy who needs to retire to his new “cottage” at the fam compound.
When did ¡JEB! decide to switch parties? Sounds like is trying to out-liberal the liberals with all of his liberal pandering.
Or, have both of the establishment parties become that intertwined?
Where has Bush been all these years? The big “O” has destroyed this country ; HE HAS DISCRIMINATED against
Christians throughout his presidency. As a teen, “Berry”
attended an Islamic school in Indonesia.
I bet Jeb thinks Hillary is a great American too. Hey, with friends like Jeb, who needs enemies?
BTW, does ANYONE have ANY doubt whatsoever that if Jeb was the Pub nominee that he’d be TOTALLY slaughtered by ANYONE the Dems choose to run against him?
It’s time to say good night Gracie
Jeb’s Wife makes Michelle seem classy in comparison.
and now we know that Yeb is no hero-— Terri Schiavo he did not rescue with bravery but gave in to the evildoers.
¡Yeb! is just doing what McCain and all “sensible” checked pants Republicans do, endorse Obama.
The Joyful Tortoise becoming the nominee of the GOP will cause me to flee the GOP
Here’s an update for ya Jebuardo, instead of pontificating about that Kenyan sack o’ sh*t being ‘American’ and ‘Christian’, take a look in the mirror and you’ll see a Mexican p*ssy whipped sonuvabitch with no spine, no guts, and the blood of an innocent woman on his hands.
You DO remember Terri Schiavo-Schindler don’t you YEB? The woman you wrung your hands about but in the end you folded up like a cheap suit to a third rate probate judge who ordered her to be executed via dehydration and starvation?
Go f—k yourself Jeb.
