J.E.B.'s Not-So-Smart Admission



The royal House of Bush's next-in-line John Ellis "J.E.B." Bush wants people to know that, while he's his "own man" despite loading his campaign up with his brother's advisors, he would have done the same thing as brother Dumbya when it came to the Iraq quagmire war.  Here's the exchange with Fux "News" anchor-model Megyn Kelly:
Knowing what we know now, would you have authorized the invasion?” host Megyn Kelly asked the former Florida governor.

I would have and so would Hillary Clinton,” Bush replied. “Just to remind everybody, so would everybody that was confronted with the intelligence that they got.” (emphasis added)
Either J.E.B. is clueless about "knowing what we know now" (i.e., the war was sold to the public with false intelligence), or he is as reckless as his brother Dumbya was.  In either case, he has no business running for President.  And please, Hillary Clinton regrets her vote for the invasion, but we can't imagine her saying that she would have done the same thing, despite now knowing the intelligence was false.

Dumbya's "smarter brother?"  Not so much.

BONUS:  Some wingers have a problem with J.E.B.'s idiotic response, too.
