Oh, goodie! More Bush people on Fred’s staff. Now we are sure to get more of the same if he is elected.

He’s a speechwriter for chrissakes. That’s like saying you won’t support Fred if he hires the same White House Cook that Bush did.
It is much worse than you think.
I hear from very reliable sources that over 95 percent of his entire staff voted for George Bush in 2004!
I just don’t see how a REPUBLICAN candidate can have such people on his staff and even think he could be successful in a REPUBLICAN contest...
Yes, it would be horrific if Fred made statements like “axis of evil” re: Iran, NK and I guess maybe Syria would now take Iraq’s spot.
Nevermind it was when Bush spoke like that he was well received by everyone except the peacenik crowd across the globe. well, them and the “evil” referenced.
Doesn’t mean Fred’s positions are the same as Bush’s. I think conservative’s are still waiting to be assured he’s further to the right then Bush. McCain, Rudy and ROMNEY certainly are not. But a speech writer doesn’t set policy. Usually.
All this move suggests is that his speeches will probably be less docile in tone, the substance would be determined by Fred and whomever he intends to be his COS if he won.
Many of Bush’s people started out as Congressional aides and advisors. How many would we find with a background from Rep. Hunter’s office?
