Jeb Bush To Become Third Black President

If it weren’t for the greatest president in modern times, George Walker Bush, Jr., the Republican nominee in 2008 would be his Brother, Jebediah “Jeb” Bush, the second male heir to the Bush crown and a known Mexican. He would win, because why not. But George Jr. got to the presidency first, and despite his fantastic performance over the last eight years, the Liberals would use the sum of their mighty slapping powers to prevent Jeb’s latest Bush presidency. Poor Jeb. But since everyone in this country forgets everything, he can easily run in 2012, which George Jr. today suggested his brother might do. Country, saved.

President Bush was asked by a SkyNews correspondent whether the end of his term marked the end of the Bush presidential dynasty that began with his father’s Oval Office tenure 20 years ago.

In response, Bush singled out his brother, who has often been mentioned as a possible Republican presidential contender. “Well, we’ve got another one out there who did a fabulous job as governor of Florida, and that’s Jeb,” he said. “But you know, you better ask him whether or not he’s thinking of running. But he’d be a great president.”

Oh God, this is the exact language Bill Clinton used in 2006 when asked about Hillary possibly running. “I don’t know, but she’d do a helluva job!” Well now Bill’s wife Hillary will be able to run against Jeb Bush in 2012. There is somehow no scenario in which this won’t happen, and we’ll finally be fighting the terrorists over here instead of over “there” (Nazi Germany). Thanks a lot, Jesus!

    Laura “Xanax eyes” Bush might run in 2012.

  7. Marcel Parcells says at 2:57 pm, June 16th, 2008

  8. populucious says at 2:57 pm, June 16th, 2008

    That’s a race that could only be fairly decided by a cage match to the death, don’t you think?

    I’m guessing that E. Coli poisoning is a touch more popular than any Bush Dynasty twerp.

  12. shortsshortsshorts says at 3:01 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Marcel Parcells: I don’t know, this is Florida we’re talking about. Those new diebold machines till multiply our two votes, exponentially.

  14. Vanity Smurf says at 3:06 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Aw, I expect a post like this to feature the photo from the Bush xmas card in the 70s when chimpy couldn’t be bothered to find an ashtray, not some starchy after church candid.

  15. RaptorAvatar says at 3:07 pm, June 16th, 2008

    It’s okay, everyone. He’ll lose because of sexism just like the last horse’s ass who wanted to pretend America still had the Divine Right Of Kings.

  16. graceless says at 3:07 pm, June 16th, 2008

    I miss drugs.

  17. problemwithcaring says at 3:08 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Oh god - Jeb vs a 90 year old Hillary and Bill? I hope I am dead.

  18. El Bombastico says at 3:09 pm, June 16th, 2008

    That little girl in the picture seems *awfully* excited to have GW’s hand up her hoo-ha.

  19. MoodProcessor says at 3:09 pm, June 16th, 2008

    “Jeb hit head.”

  20. Vanity Smurf says at 3:10 pm, June 16th, 2008

    stankfest: Noelle. The twins call her their crack whore cousin. And then there’s the son (Not P.) that got caught fucking his girlfriend in the back of his Jeep in the mall parking lot one xmas. His wife has had a few customs scandals on her return from Columbia or Venezuela or whatever-the-hell-it-is brown country she’s from. The only shot that branch of the family has is George P. and that’s only because he’s hot (obv. from his mother’s side). He’s the sleeper cell we must watch for in a few years.

  21. You know, if you were Jeb, you’d have every right to be pissed off right now because he was considered the “smart” Bush kid and by that, it means he’s the only one with an IQ above room temperature.
    Not much higher, though, because, as it’s been reported here, he once mounted Kitty Harris.

  22. Walter Sobchak says at 3:13 pm, June 16th, 2008

    I would like whatever force is acting on the brothers Bush in that CNN photo to continue horizontally crushing them into nothingness.

  23. Manofsteel says at 3:15 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Kitty Harris says: “I will accept the position of Vice President…unless there is a hurricane.”

    FMA: What else do you do with a horse besides mount it and ride?

  25. Wavingsuzy says at 3:15 pm, June 16th, 2008

    This dynasty totally belongs to Jenna

  26. Juice-IL says at 3:18 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Just want to point out that Jeb’s name is not actually Jebediah, but is in fact John Ellis Bush. Making his name JEB simply his initials. This alone should disqualify him for the presidency.

  27. Johnny Zhivago says at 3:18 pm, June 16th, 2008

    FMA: What happened to the kittens?

  28. Lazy Media says at 3:18 pm, June 16th, 2008

    By 2012, Hopey McUnicorn will have solved all of life’s problems, and will be elected President of Earth by acclamation. Upon which signal the Cylons will attack and kill us all. But at least we won’t have to worry about Jeb-Hillary.

  29. Johnny Zhivago says at 3:20 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Who wouldn’t want to see Romneys vs. Bush’s on Family Feud!???

  30. AnnieGetYourFun says at 3:21 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Does it count as a dynasty if one guy was only President for one term, followed by an eight-year gap, followed by 8 years of a man who is arguably the dumbest man to hold the presidential office? There are a number of words I can use to describe this (such as “fucking travesty”), but “dynasty” is not among them.

  31. rubybuckaroo says at 3:24 pm, June 16th, 2008

    1rst test

  32. AngryBlakGuy says at 3:27 pm, June 16th, 2008

    …if there is one positive thing about “W” it is the fact the “Bush” brand has been tainted beyond belief. Secondly as a Floridian I have begun to believe that stupidity is actually a GENETIC trait that dominant in Bush bloodline! And if you don’t believe take a look at this: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9373195/ and this is only one of many arrest for this young upstanding citizen!

  33. RobPetrified says at 3:27 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Do html tags work on the new and Improved Wonkette?
    If so, you’re looking at a lovely photo of
    JEB Bush with the now dead Terry Schaivo.

  34. Uncle Al says at 3:29 pm, June 16th, 2008

    It’s weird. I’m pretty sure Neil Bush, the real idiot of the family, is the little guy with the bright eyes in the photo, and Jeb, the one who’s supposedly the least stupid, looks like the family retard. Doro looks cute, and Battleship isn’t grotesque yet.

  35. Carrie_Okie says at 3:31 pm, June 16th, 2008

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/portuguese/images/020129_noellebush150.jpg
    “What day is this? Why is my brother a Negro? God I need my Xanax!” blurted a visibly agitated Noelle Bush, after spending 43 hours in jail for violating her court-ordered drug treatment plan.”

    Who TF says, “Negro?” (well except for the UNCF)

  36. AngryBlakGuy says at 3:34 pm, June 16th, 2008

    …the resemblance between Jeb and Frankenstein is UNCANNY!

  37. Did Jeb proclaim it’s ‘Black Music Month’ for Florida, too?

  38. AnnieGetYourFun says at 3:47 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Sometimes I wish my grandpappy had been a Nazi. That way, I could be rich and powerful, too.

  39. Truculent says at 3:49 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Quick. I need a stake, a sledgehammer, six silver bullets, a cross, holy water, and directions to Florida.

  40. Mediahohoho says at 3:50 pm, June 16th, 2008

    What kind of retard prize is it to be considered “the smart Bush.”

    Isn’t that like being the “most sophisticated fundamentalist”?

  41. murality says at 3:51 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Christ, that family is like the Nelsons of the damned and Jeb has always had a dumb fat head. How did it get out of Bar?

  42. ForeignSickSpecialist says at 3:54 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Juice-IL: I love acronyms! Goddamn Egotistical Obsolete Retarded Garbage Eater With Brown Underwear Streak Habit…

  43. MoodProcessor says at 3:55 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Mediahohoho:
    Don’t forget the Fundie motto, “Just ‘cuz it’s a fact, that don’t make it true.”

    Noelle Bush misses drugs. You’d think the Boosch clan would have a Dr. in their pockets for emergency Xanax. Maybe it was just a cry for help….

  44. AngryBlakGuy says at 4:09 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Mediahohoho: yeah, that is like telling your girlfriend that she isn’t as ugly as her sister!

  45. jagorev says at 4:12 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Too bad, really. Jeb would have been a far, far better President than George W. He’s actually, like, somewhat capable and competent and all that.

  46. bitchincamaro says at 4:19 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Let’s start Jeb’s impeachment proceedings now.

  47. Dr. Spaceman says at 4:47 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Juice-IL: Just like GOB? That’s awesome! He made a great CEO of the Bluth Company.

  48. Johnny Zhivago says at 5:13 pm, June 16th, 2008

    AngryBlakGuy: Christy Whitman’s daughter was arrested for public drunkenness and look at her all growed up now - and she just ran for congress!!! (and lost in the primary)

  49. NoWireHangers says at 5:15 pm, June 16th, 2008

    I think W said it best: “Fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can’t get fooled again.”

    Unfortunately, this is America, so it really should be: Fool me once, Bush I. Fool me twice, Bush II. Fool me thrice, Bush III

  50. Juice-IL says at 6:56 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Dr. Spaceman: I also hear that JEB carries around a Cuban puppet named Warren G Bush.

  51. heathenish says at 10:19 pm, June 16th, 2008

    I keep thinking Walnuts will pick Jeb for his VP.

  52. Sabre_Justice says at 6:56 am, June 17th, 2008

    Jeb/Flying Pig ‘12!

  53. sidwood says at 10:55 am, June 17th, 2008

    Jeb isn’t short for Jebediah. It’s short for John Ellis Bush, using the Arrested Development naming convention.
