It is hardly a secret, Denizens, that the George Bushes that bookended Kaiser Wilhelm von Slickmeister all but ruined the Republican Party.  Bush the Elder™ raised taxes by half a billion dollars, and Shrubya couldn’t keep his grubby hands off the supposed  generated excess.  Together, they destroyed the conservative movement started by Ronaldus Magnus.
Now, along comes Jebidiah Bush, He Who Wouldn’t Lift A Finger To Save Terri Schiavo™ himself, saying we need to leave President Reagan behind.
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush said Saturday that it’s time for the Republican Party to give up its “nostalgia” for the heyday of the Reagan era and look forward, even if it means stealing the winning strategy deployed by Democrats in the 2008 election.
So what you’re saying, then, Jebidiah, is that you favor us forming an ACORN-style group and forging signatures of real – and imagined – people, football players, comic book characters and the like?  You’d support smuggling illegal aliens across the border and signing them up to vote?  It’s okay if we smear Demoscummic HQ door knobs with virii, like they did to us some time back?  Those the kind of things you talking about, Jebbie boy?
“You can’t beat something with nothing, and the other side has something. I don’t like it, but they have it, and we have to be respectful and mindful of that,” Mr. Bush said.
The other side, Jebbie my boy, has outright lies, sexual innuendo and old, tired, Communist-laden bullshit.  And ou want us to be “respectful” of that?
“So our ideas need to be forward looking and relevant. I felt like there was a lot of nostalgia and the good old days in the [Republican] messaging. I mean, it’s great, but it doesn’t draw people toward your cause,” Mr. Bush said.
“From the conservative side, it’s time for us to listen first, to learn a little bit, to upgrade our message a little bit, to not be nostalgic about the past because, you know, things do ebb and flow.”
Oh, you mean back in the past when Republicans stood for conservatism and were winning elections, eh, Jebidiah?
And you wonder why it’ll be a Cold Day In Hell™ before you or anyone else in your family attain high elected office again
