No More Baloney! No More Anchor-Babies! No More Bushes!

Chub Baloney:
"But in this one snapshot — the Jeb Bush unwillingness to go into the lion’s den of one of his staunchest critics — it says everything you need to know about why he is doing so poorly in this campaign.
More to the point, it says everything you need to know about why the GOP Establishment and their consultants keep losing presidential campaigns."
Jeb Bush Silent on Mark Levin’s Challenge | The American Spectator

By Jeffrey Lord – 8.25.15

 Timid Establishment favorite shows why Trump leads.

“Why does baloney reject the meat grinder?” So answered William F. Buckley, Jr. when he was asked why the most popular Democrat of 1967 — New York Senator Robert F. Kennedy — refused to come on Buckley’s television show Firing Line to discuss the issues of the day.

The Buckley remark comes to mind as former Florida Governor Jeb Bush — the GOP Establishment favorite in the presidential race — is silent as a church mouse in response to an on-air challenge from Mark Levin to appear on Mark’s radio show for a discussion of birthright citizenship.

Bush has been out there defending “birthright citizenship.” ...

...

OK. Fair enough. That’s the Bush position. It also happens to be the position of our friends at the Wall Street Journal.

Mark Levin, a considerable student of the Constitution, quickly and publicly challenged Bush to come on his show to discuss the issue. Thus far, Bush has refused by simply ignoring the invitation altogether. Reminding, of course, of Bill Buckley’s remark about Bobby Kennedy: “Why does baloney reject the meat grinder?”

Mark appeared on Sean Hannity’s TV show the other night (hat tip to Breitbart) and said this of those who are, like Bush, making the 14th Amendment say something it doesn’t say:

Because they’re result-oriented. Because they want to insist the Constitution says what it doesn’t say. Moreover, the Supreme Court has never ruled that the children of illegal aliens are American citizens. So the Supreme Court never ruled, even if they did, it would be wrong. The clause speaks for itself, the author of the clause made it abundantly, unequivocally clear, let’s add another thing, let’s read the clause together, shall we?  ...
