Gop Rebranding

It seems that Jeb Bush has changed his tune on Obama.

At the beginning of October, the former governor said that Obama was "on the right track"; last week, Bush stressed that the GOP must be more than the "old white guy party," and the "party of no."

But on Wednesday, Jeb Bush latched on to a theme much favored by leaders of the "Old White Guy Party": Obama as enemy of capitalism.

"I think President Obama has used the bully pulpit as a way to attack capitalism," Bush announced to a U.S. Chamber of Commerce legal summit in Washington. "That'll make the news," he said after a pause, and concluded the summit.

I love it. Lectures from the Bushes who made almost all their money deceitfully or illegally, including some insider trading and early dealing with the Nazis. What Obama doesn't need are lectures from these
cowards.

Like Romney, it appears Jeb Bush just says what his particular audience of the moment wants to hear.

Jeb's brother raped capitalism in favour of financial corporativism as fascistis did, but probably Jeb and his friends, as Mel Sembler and others, were too busy in making money to notice it

Crony Capitalism is what we're against, Jeb. Tilted playing fields, insider trading, "lobbying", busted unions, tax breaks for outsourcing, no-bid government contracts.­..........­you know, ALL of the things you support.

Are you kidding me? Capitalism doesn't need to be attacked, it's destroying itself just fine all by itself.

Jeb, what Pres Obama is doing is clearing up the mess your brother left.
