You guys know me, anytime I can stick it to a Conk, I'll do it....and with great relish. However, this is just another example of what's wrong with Conks. Feel sorry for Bush.

Jeb Bush gives an award to Hillary for public service......so, what? And, not only that, they drag Benghazi into it in a desperate attempt to keep that dead issue out front.

Conks are just mean and nasty people, even to their own.

:roll:

In what could be a potentially troubling barrier in Jeb Bush's presidential ambitions, an influential conservative group with a network of more than 7 million conservative activists has declared the former Florida governor "unelectable."

ForAmerica, which describes itself as "an online army" of conservatives led by longtime activist Brent Bozell, released a one minute video to its network Thursday morning that shows Bush praising former Secretary of State and potential presidential challenger Hillary Clinton.

The archived footage in the video dated September 10, 2013 is of Bush presenting Clinton an award for a lifetime of public service. At the awards ceremony, Bush thanked Clinton for her service, saying "we are united by a love of country and public service." The video then cuts to a black screen with red and white text saying the award was given to Clinton on the eve of the first anniversary of the Benghazi attacks. Conservatives blame Clinton for lack of security at the American compound where four Americans were killed.

While Bush is a top contender among the Republican donor class, grassroots activists within the Republican Party have expressed concern about a Bush presidency. Activists point to his support for immigration reform and for education standards called Common Core.

"As it stands, Jeb has absolutely no credibility to criticize (Clinton) because he has already anointed her as a great public servant; and he inexplicably did so almost a year to the day of the Benghazi massacre," Bozell said in a statement. "He will lose, and the public will have to suffer at least another four years of Obama's policies - and anything worse she has in store for America."

The National Constitution Center, a museum "dedicated to non-partisan constitutional education and debate" gave Clinton the award and Bush presented it to her as the organization's chairman.

"I want to say a special thank you to Governor Bush," Clinton said in the video during the award ceremony.

"Hillary will use this event to blunt any criticism that Bush levels against her," the text says in the video. "Jeb Bush: unelectable."

I'd rather vote for a candidate that I agree with on 51% of the issues than mail it in and simply cast a vote for someone because they're a woman or black without regard to their stances on issues. That's just stupid, but that's the new American paradigm.

If Jeb is already unelectable based on something this trivial then we might as well start picking out the colors for Hillary's White House - no chance that she'll actually be vetted like a Republican candidate will. Jeb thanks her for her service and he's unelectable - Christie works with Obama on Hurricane Sandy aftermath and he's too liberal. The republicans need to get their shit together if they're going to be relevant in the next cycle.

This particular think tank obviously prefers someone other than Bush. That's what I take from this.

Jeb Bush is unelectable based on his last name alone.

I wish that were the case with Hillary as well. Dynastic politics is not a good thing.
