Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) again praised his brother’s actions following the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, describing President George W. Bush’s leadership as “awe-inspiring.”
“The case study of leadership is how George responded to 9/11, period, over and out,” Jeb Bush told the audience at a Houston event for donors to Bush’s campaign, according to The Hill. “And the idea that a candidate could think that they could make political hay to create a new … narrative on the reality on how he led is a joke.”
During a conversation with his brother on stage, Jeb Bush applauded George W. Bush’s efforts to unite the country.
“People were united. And people really got it that he had a heart for them,” Bush said, according to The Hill. “At that time, as you know, kids were crying. All around people, children and grandchildren didn’t know what was going on.”
“The whole world was turned upside down, and you had a president who was staid and sure and strong.” he continued.
Since launching his campaign for president, Jeb Bush has fiercely defended his brother, even as other Republican candidates attack his record.
Yes, watching a person look dazed and confused while peeing their pants really is awe inspiring…
Bush would be much higher in the polls if he’d come out and say, “My brother was a fucking idiot, a true moron. He’s always been dumber than dirt you scrape off your shoe.”
…and then we went into Iraq where we found all those WMD, were greeted as liberators and made the world the safe stable place it is today.
Yeah, it was awe-inspiring how he sat there reading My Pet Goat and then arranging for the Bin Laden family to get out of the country, then fucked our liberties (our REAL liberties) with the “Patriot” Act after telling us to go out and spend, Spend, SPEND!!
And for the final topping on the Bullshit Cake, it was most awe-inspiring – wait, SHOCK-and-awe-inspiring – how we invaded the wrong country that didn’t attack us on 9/11!
Were you not awed?
WERE. YOU. NOT. AWED?
And lo! the little children dried their tears, everybody got a puppie, and all lived happily ever after!
