I know the Bush family is popular with some on this blog, but Marco Rubio is my Senator and I have a right to speak out and defend him. Far Left Progressives like Charles Johnson have attacked Marco Rubio for his answer to a question in a GQ magazine interview. Rubio basically said its irrelevant to government policies how old the Earth is. But now he is being attacked from another source, the Bush political mafia.
It’s no secret that Jeb Bush is the favorite of the Republican establishment and elements of the base for 2016. Marco Rubio is mentioned as a potential 2016 candidate. He is view as a threat to Jeb’s aspiration. In a typical mob like act, he send his son; Jeb Bush Jr. to go after Rubio. Using Progressive talking points that would make Charles Johnson proud, the Bush family prince says Rubio’s answer makes the GOP appear anti-science.
On CNN Tuesday morning, Jeb Bush Jr. — the son of former Florida governor Jeb Bush — said Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) gave “kind of a head-scratching type of answer” to a recent question about the age of the Earth.
[....]
Asked about the comment, Bush called it a “strange question” but also “kind of a strange response.” He suggested Rubio’s support for science did not come through in the interview.
“We’ve got to be a kind of pro-science and pro-technology party. And I think Marco Rubio is just that,” Bush said. “On the Earth question, I guess I have to read more closely in terms of getting a better understanding, but, yeah, kind of a strange response, I guess.”
Bush also said he’s hoping his father will run for president in 2016.
Jeb Bush Jr.’s final answer lets the cat out of the bag. The attack on Marco Rubio by using leftist talking points is about attacking a potential rival to Jeb Bush in 2016. Although they are push overs for Progressives, the Bush political mafia is ruthless with Conservative Republcians. This attack on Rubio is actually pure treachery since Rubio was a political ally of Jeb Bush in Florida politics. But he is in the way and must be destroyed.
Should Rubio run in 2016 and challenge Jeb Bush, expect to see negative stories about him on Conservative blogs and even his citizen status questioned. Unlike the Democrats, Republcian destroy their up and coming talent if they are not from the correct families. Constitutional Liberty minded Conservatives and Libertarian must stand behind Marco Rubio and fight back against the Bush political mafia and their allies’ upcoming charterer assassination campaign. I will stand behind Rubio or any other Republican attacked by this cabal. I have a 1st Amendment right to speak out and will utilize it.

Charles Johnson must be happy with Jeb Bush Jr.
This is really a big backstab. Rubio and Jeb were political allies. It shows how the Bush family roll over other Republicans in their way.
The mug shot is priceless.
This is no real surprise, but Jeb Bush Jr. is a lot like Meghan McCain. Why take either one seriously?
Porky Jr. needs to realize there is no way another person named “Bush” will ever be POTUS.

History has been rewritten about King Abdullah II so as not to offend his Jordain Muslim subjects, he is a Muslim in name only, a former United States Citizen and US Marine, his interests in avoiding an Israeli ground offensive is purely Jordain in nature. Most of the Fakostianians are of Jordanian in origin. He absolutely does not want them attempting to return to Jordan and he does not want his own people getting involved nor does he wish to see an Arab Spring explode in Jordan.
He knows that his own people would both side with the Fakostianians and attempt to force him to get involved. His position is one purely of self preservation.

Why is the opinion of Jeb Bush, Jr. (who I didn’t know even existed until now) ben remotely relevant to any thing? GQ isn’t exactly known as much more than a magazine for mimbos and Junior pretty much showed why that’s where he belongs. Given that his uncle damned near lost in 2000 because of an unreported DUI, I kinda doubt that dad trotted out his son, once arrested for public drunkenness, as a political spokesman in his quest for the White House.
As for Jeb’s chances in 2016, for four years the Democrats have pretty laid the whole of mankind’s woes at the feet of George W. Bush and Republicans, for the most part, have dutifully behaved as bobble-heads. I find it highly unlikely that Jeb has a snowball’s chance in hell of even coming close to the nomination.

@ doriangrey:
I’d also like to point out that Paul Otellini is one of the most competent and successful CEO’s on earth if not in America. His extremely dept management of Intel is probably the only thing that has kept AMD from eating Intel alive.
Right now would probably be a good time to start investing in AMD since there is probably little doubt that AMD will ruthlessly take advantage of the confusion resulting in Paul’s departure.
AMD and Intel have been locked in a genuinely titanic struggle for the last 25 years and quite honestly I believe it is only Paul Otellini management of Intel that has held AMD at bay. Intel has been reacting to AMD for most of that 25 years and this is perhaps exactly the misstep by Intel that AMD has been waiting for.

@ waldensianspirit:
If the Republicans run Jeb Bush for President, they aren’t trying to win. There’s no way another Bush can win the White House. W guaranteed that when he didn’t fight back against the media smears of him when he was in the White House. When Romney ran, one of Obama’s recurring themes was that Romney would take us “back to the Bush years”. While one might have thought that going back to 5% unemployment might have had some attraction for voters, it clearly didn’t. If the Republicans run Jeb, the campaign commercials will write themselves. It wouldn’t be a serious ticket.

Rubio’s the man to beat right now, and he’s already making moves to solidify that position. The interview with GQ is just one small step in that direction. He has a fundraiser in Iowa early next year. If he really wants the position, he needs to get moving early, and it looks like he’s doing just that. Rubio is just the kind of Republican to bring the base out to vote. That has to become the Republican’s first consideration. If there is one thing to fault Romney on, it was his ignoring the base, especially the Tea PArty, throughout his run for the White House. Rubio wouldn’t have that problem from the start. How much he can reach into the Hispanic Demographic is anybody’s guess, though. If they are as locked up for the Democrats as the black vote, then the answer is not very far. But the blacks would vote for Nathan Bedford Forrest if he ran on the Democrat ticket, and it wouldn’t matter if the Republicans ran Frederick Douglass.
Rubio is very good at communicating the message of individual liberty.
Maybe after another four years of socialism people will be ready to listen.

We’ll see. Asians are too small a demographic to matter much, though every vote helps. Young people voted dumb, and were mostly reached by dumb ads. Likewise single women. They’ll need the State to pay for their birth control when they are unemployed. Can we reach the low-information (i.e. STUPID) voter? We need to try, but the message “Work hard and make something of yourself” doesn’t sell well to a generation used to being given everything that they’ve got.
@ Mars:
Yeah I saw nothing wrong with Rubio’s answer. The media jumped on him and ironicallY Slate defined him. Heck, the GOP establishment has attacked him too.
On a positive note, Rubio is getting alot of respect from Hip Hop heads. His knowledge of the genre was getting positive reviews at Rap Music forums. This means Rubio might be able to connect with a group of people who don’t vote Republican.
One commenter said Rubio would be like tony Montana becasue he’s Cuban!
@ Iron Fist:
The fact Rubio is a Hip Hop head gives him an opening. I was at several rap forums and was stunned at the amount of respect he was getting. See here’s the problem for the GOP. There has not been a successful Republican presidency since Reagan, So the Republican message falls on deaf ears because people think of the Bush years. Rubio by being able to connect with a different crowd, means that they will listen to him.

Like I said, history was rewritten to keep his Muslim citizens from going apeshit. His wife was a Kuwaiti who immigrated to America and became an American Citizen in New York and worked for the evil American Corporation Citibank.
Abdullah was smuggled into America as a teenager to prevent him being assassinated when his father appointed his uncle ( Prince Hassan bin Talal) heir to the throne. It is Abdullah’s mother who was a British citizen, not his wife.
Abdullah more or less became King after a military coup when his father died. The true facts have been rewritten for political/religious reasons.

Unemployed single women…why are they complicating their lives even further by having unprotected sex with random partners who can’t be bothered to provide their own condoms?

It wasn’t so long ago that promiscuous women and girls who were unable to support themselves even by prostitution, were considered mentally ill and were institutionalized. I am not suggesting we go back to doing that. What I am suggesting is that these women DO have something SERIOUSLY wrong in the upstairs department. We are validating a sick lifestyle.
Lyrics here.
@ doriangrey:
Oh, and how do I know this? Because I watched a no longer available interview with Abdullah that was made about a year after he assumed the Throne. He talked about how he met his wife, where they met, his experiences in the US Marine Corps and mostly his absolute love of Harley Davidson motorcycles, which the Jordanian version of the secret service pretty much refused to allow him to ride anymore.

I still say that the way to peace in the Middle East is to knock out the “Saudi royal family,” i.e., the brigand tribe the now-defunct British Empire put in power after WWI, and give the Arabian Peninsula back to the Hashemites who used to rule in Mecca before the Brits shipped them to Jordan.
The Hashemites would have reason to be friendly to the West, and would perhaps assist in rooting out the Wahabism that the Saudi brigands have permitted to flourish.
Jordan, which comprises the vast bulk of Mandate Palestine, would then be recognized as the sole legitimate “Palestinian state,” to which all “Palestinians” had a “right to return.”
Israel takes Gaza and the West Bank, and the West takes out Iran’s nuclear program.
