(5,082 posts)Jeb is praising Obama for NSA surveillance and war on terror. Jeb had privately visited Obama a few times in the White House too. I personally think (know) that the Bush family and our Democratic Leadership are very close and friendly. All the division is theater for the gullible and intended to manipulate the base. I recall when people like you laughed and scoffed when we said the Clintons and Bushes were friends in the 90s. What about the vast RW conspiracy we were told. Well it's correct...it does exist but not without the cooperation of some key Democratic players...ones who can cover up Republican crimes in order to "look forward". Of course they dropped the facade after 2001 and the Bush family has continually expressed their love for the Clintons and repeatedly called them honorary family members. This isn't just normal diplomatic niceties as some fools in our party suggest when they desperately try to defend these nauseating facts due to attachment to their leaders and an inability or laziness to redefine their belief systems. It's what makes me realize many within our own ranks are just a big a problem as crazy republicans. Spying on every Americans emails and cell phones is unacceptable and a integral part of a fascist or totalitarian state. It's not used for terrorism but mostly used to oppress people with the failed and unpopular drug war and it's rebranding. Other major uses are tight control and leverage to essentially blackmail politicians, journalists, judges, CEOs, generals, attorneys or any other important people that don't get in line with the military industrial complex corporate agenda. Keep laughing
