The
Fundamental Problem with a Jeb Bush Presidency (and a Hillary Clinton
one)
I want you to do something you will not want to naturally do. You too
Laura Ingraham. I want you all to do this because I consider it very
important. I want you to presume you agree with Jeb Bush or Hillary
Clinton (your choice) on everything. I want you to presume that Jeb or
Hillary is the ideal candidate in your mind. I know it is hard, but
just do it. Presume that they are perfect.
Separate
from the White House, John Roberts now leads a Supreme Court that very
clearly can be persuaded by PR campaigns and is now constantly targeted
to do what is right in terms of public relations and not necessarily
the law or constitution.
Notwithstanding that, I think the nation would make a mistake handing
the Presidency to either. The reason for that mistake has nothing to do
with their positions on any issue. I would gladly support Jeb Bush were
he the nominee of the Republican Party. I do not have the hostility
toward him some of my friends have. [

John Boehner Uses an Outside Group to Attack
Conservatives
The American Action Network claims to be a “conservative” group. It was
started by prominent Republican, Fred Malek, who maintains close ties
to the Establishment and was Finance Co-Chairman of Sen. John McCain's
(R-AZ) Presidential campaign. It is run by Mike Shields, formerly of
the National Republican Congressional Committee. Prior to Shields,
Brian Walsh of the NRCC ran it. It was founded by former Rep. Eric
Cantor (R-VA)4 and previously run by Rob Collins of Cantor’s office.
Collins is now at the NRSC. Former Republican Senator Norm Coleman is
Chairman of the Board.
The group operates as an outside entity for Rep. John Boehner (R-OH).
On the same day even the establishment oriented Wall Street Journal
editorial page is suggesting Boehner go, Fred Malek’s group has begun
attacking conservative congressmen. Malek and the American Action
Network want conservative congressmen to cave and fund Barack Obama’s
executive amnesty plan.
In Georgia, they have already begun running ads against Congressmen
Barry Loudermilk and Jody Hice. Loudermilk and Hice, who voted for
Boehner as Speaker, are now being attacked by Speaker Boehner’s outside
interests. Rep. Tim Huelskamp (R-KS) of Kansas is in the same boat
along with Rep. Jim Bridenstine (R-OK) and Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH). [
