George P. Bush wins his first election, and the comments are hilarious. [View all]

Usually Yahoo message boards are a Republican/ Tea Party stronghold. Not today! LOL

Some choice examples:

* The Shrub family is a cancer in America. I can't believe Texans are dumb enough to put one in office after the way George and Jeb screwed up the states they represented and George finished as the worst president in America's history. But they are Texans who voted for Perry so anything is possible.

* George P. another in a long line of the annotated (sic) wealthy, with a carefully planned future, who view politics as a hobby and to further enrich the family name and fortune.

* Haven't we had ENOUGH of political dynastys?

* another inexperienced, unqualified political bush hack in the making...will the American people ever learn, his seeds are already sown, his loyalties are set in stone- it is no longer about the country, only the $$$.

* Can any of you neo-con republicans name anything Dubya did that was constructive for the U.S.? Bombing the hell out of two middle east countries doesn't count. And tax breaks for the 1% either.

* Amazing only in America can a guy get elected simply because he has a huge amount of money to back him up, no qualifying history or experience needed!

* Once again, the money wins.

* "shaking off an under-funded primary challenger and securing the Republican nomination for the little-known but powerful post of Texas land commissioner." This goes to show you that money DOES buy an election and we all know how much money the Bush Dynasty has. I guess the rich are to inherit this country!

* At least this Bush knows more than one language. His uncle could barely put two coherent sentences together.

* Aristocracy is un-American and the Bushes are obviously an aristocracy.

* Amazing what a family political dynasty one can build with a fortune made off holocaust slave labor.

* Can't any of these Bushes get a real job?

* Christ this family is like a bunch of cockroaches every time you turn over a rock there they are. Why can't they just go away.

* Can someone please seal that rock! So no more bush's can crawl out...

* America doesn't need a standing army, when you can send the Bush clan, they can destroy a nation in no time at all.

* NO MORE BUSH!
