"Reform becomes contagious," former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush said at a McCain town hall meeting this week in Orlando. "If you start to dream bigger dreams and you start challenging the basic assumptions, you can change how things work, and we’ve done it in Florida, and the Good Lord knows we need to do it in Washington, D.C., and John McCain is the right guy at the right time to make that happen."

“Reform becomes contagious,” former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush said at a McCain town hall meeting this week in Orlando.”
“Unfortunately, my maroonish brother’s White House has proven that stupidity is contagious too.”
McCain needs to be in a witless protection program.
Here Spinning Round
Is what Bush/McCain/Palin are doing with all there lies!!
Yep Jebbie “changed how things work” in FL alright. I hear from friends down there that he broke it,
Forgot this one for the rethuglians…. sure fits them!
Republics: We are reformers because we say that we are reformers and everything we do is a reform. No need for you to look deeper.
Requirements for affiliation with the rethug party
1. Hypocracy is a fundamental tactic and personality trait
2. Must be aware that lying is not a sin but significant part of persona
3. Must be capable of turning positions on a dime
4. Must be willing to sell soul to highest bidder
5. Must be willing to sell out constituents to highest bidder
“contagious” hahaha they talk about reform like it’s a disease instead of the cure for their viral greed.
6. Must desire a spot in the Bush Wing of Hell.
Republics: We are reformers because we say that we are reformers and everything we do is a reform. No need for you to look deeper.
“Because that is sexist.”
“And insulting”
“Hey – you calling me a liar?”
“Have I mentioned that I was a POW?”
I so like Nancy Pelosi’s remark: George Bush has shown us that anyone can be president.
He is, it’s known as the GOP.
And don’t forget Marvin,who must be pretty smart, to have a contract for WTC security that expired on 9/10.
Wasn’t Marvin the same one who rode Silverado Savings and Loan into the ground?
it’s really funny watching the noe cons tell us regulation is a good thing, really really funny
what they really want is to set up the regulation where they can continue pillaging middle class assets
who could have possibly thought one president could cause this much damage to our country, one president could cause this much vile hatred toward our nation, one president could bring down the the armed forces of America
one president could do all this harm
man, the worst president not only in history but could have ever been imagined
and yet mccain polls close to the democrats…we are a nation of fools
OH MY

4. Must be
willingable to pretend to *have* a soul to sell to highest bidder.It’s been a few years since any of Jeb’s kids have gotten busted, so either he did successfully reform something in Florida or his daughter has gotten better at forging prescriptions.
Then who is Neal or Neil, whatever!
ooh, I haven’t seen that, is there a link?
Money makes the world go round, the world go round………
That was Neil Bush.
Now, that is funny.
(I’m still down with the flu. I’m on a no-stress diet also, so all y’all just know I AM lurking and thanks for all the fish!)
Nancy Pelosi Slams Palin
here you go. it’s a two-fer. enjoy!
THANKS JEBBIE THE SMART BOOOOOOOOOOOSH

That was Neil who also has the “education software” firm that Babs specified her Katrina donation go to.
Neil’s ex Sharon is the one who pointed out his propensity for cocaine and prostitutes:
I believe was the quote
You give him too much credit, Perris. He had lots of help. Never underestimate Cheney and his merry band! They did quite a bit of their own damages.
OH feel better…get tea lemmon and ginger down your gullet till it goes away
Dearheart, I love your typo – noe cons.
You might have meant neo, but I love the freudian slip…all the bastards should be in jail, but there are No Cons ’cause people like Jebbie get to lie. Like really bad rugs.
These clowns are comedy gold.
OT — PUMA de Rothschilde endorsing McCain over Obama [guess Barack wasn’t stepin-fetchit enough for her].
Meanwhile McCain and Palin furious, “disappear” Fiorino.
Might be a good idea for Lynne de PUMA to remember that Palin is a known gut-ter [sic]…PUMA money, PUMA name–yep…opinions–better keep ‘em to herself…what’s good for the moose….
Not that I wouldn’t luv to see this PUMA basted in BBQ sauce….
It sounds like the bushes have been tutoring McShames son
And don’t forget boy McCain piloting the Silver State Bank into the ground. Republicans seem to have the dumbest kids, I suspect they need a little chlorine in their gene pool.
Don’t forget the home made chicken soup with lots of veggies in it Demi. Helps to at least sooth the throat..
thank ye. guess who is taking naps with me?
Jethro*:
And if you start to tell bigger lies, and start denying basic reality, eventually it will turn around and bite you on your stupid conservative ass.
*my term for jeb-
He should have used the Edwin Moses excuse, “I just thought she was a fan…”
Obama: In Nevada McShame wants to get rid of lobbyists – in McShames campaign that is called a staff meeting
they are the best!!!!
Well, it’s the fever, body achey kind, but yes I made a huge pot of that yesterday. ‘Course the boys in this house finished it off last night. Have a new pot on as I type. Sheesh. But, my older, the prodigal son, has been great about pushing the cranberry juice on me.
(you!)
“‘…and the Good Lord knows we need to do it in Washington, D.C.’”
If there’s a good Lord, is there a bad one or a mediocre one? Would Jeb Bush know the difference?
(Brindle Dog for VP!)
Affiliation? I’d call it more of an affliction!
The One that created Republicans is at best an underachiever.
read this
it will blow your mind
http://www.talkzimbabwe.com/ne…..09-17.html

and he’s pounding the Phil Gramm connection.
Go, Barack!
no lipstick NEEDED
The Cranberry juice is a good thing for ya. ((((Demi))))

FAT CATS ON Wall Street live HUGE while ECONOMY CRUMBLES

Sadly – Do you read Dean Koontz? I have a recent one where the heroine is a dog rescuer and the other main character is the Dog. If you email me your address at tellblondie at ca dot rr dot com, I will mail my copy to you.
Saw that upthread
This downward economic spiral is the fruition of the deregulation started by Reagan. Who could have predicted that people in control of huge sums of money wouldn’t behave themselves without adult supervision?
You’re sweet. Thanks. Taking it in.
Noron is *shocked* by Obama’s “The good old boys network – in the McCain campaign, that’s know as a staff meeting” line.
Noron says Obama is mocking McCrazy.
(There’s a reason we call her Noron)
Have we heard yet from that other great reformer, brother Neil Bush of Silverado S&L?
OK, this is teh funny
From the always elitist DailyDave mailing list
Noron to Tom Vilsack “Do you think it was ‘appropriate’ for Barack Obama to attend the celebrity dinner in Beverly Hills last night?”
Vilsack – “Do you have a question of any importance or relevance, you nit-wit, or should I just leave now?”
How much money did Jeb Bush make as a ”consultant” to Lehman Brothers who sold faulty securities to Florida Pension Funds? What’s the commission on a 900 Million dollar sale to those funds? Let’s see. If he only got a 5% commission on the procurement, that would be 45 Million Dollars. The 900 million is supposedly all gone since it was in mortgage based securities.
Now, if the Federal Government is the final insurer on that fund, then that would mean that you and I just paid 900 million to make up the shortfall. If not, those people are SOL. If we did make it up, that means that you and I just enriched the Bush family by another 45 million.
No wonder they want McCain to win. Otherwise, W could be indicted for war crimes and hopefully his influence peddling brother could go up the river for something….anything.
Amazing. The disease, republican ideas, is now proclaiming it’s the Doctor.
Comment from Obama: Now McCain says he’s gonna change “the old boys network. The old boys network…in McCain’s campaign that’s called a staff meeting!” I love that line!
wikileaks is timing out
hopefully someone is getting copies for general consumption
And don’t forget Marvin,who must be pretty smart, to have a contract for WTC security that expired on 9/10.
Wasn’t Marvin the same one who rode Silverado Savings and Loan into the ground?
No, that was Neill. Honestly, if I had produced a bunch with the low IQs this group possesses, I would have figured it out and stopped after two.
Doesn’t this describe Cheney’s wet dream from 8 years ago? “Challenging basic assumptions” like the Constitution is more than a piece of paper? Like the Balance of Powers? Like the Bill of Rights?
I think we’ve had a bit too much of it for the past 7 years.
Bob in HI
This is yet another example of what an incestuous relationship the Bu$h family of Cronies maintains. They are a tremendous source of one dishonest, treasonous act after another. They are treasonous Fascists driven by greed and totally committed to the destruction of Democracy. No mercy for Tyrants!
Uh oh, we may have a winner here.

Some reform, like a nuclear blast or a tank running over a car, isn’t good.
It isn’t about gender. It’s about America.
Some things McCain & Palin are saying are insulting … to Americans.
Yes, McCain & Palin are, sadly, liars and we Democrats don’t say that lightly.
Yes, we know John McCain was a POW. Now it’s time for Americans to stop being Prisoners of War and elect a government that will solve our problems instead of creating more problems.
wikileaks is doing something. Does anybody have sscreen shot of sarahs yahoo inbox? The Cons got to it pretty quick.
“de Rothschilds FOR McCain”
BTW…The Rothschilds are historically linked with the Seagrams group that had mob connections with Cindy McCain’s father. Booze people swizzle together.
