One of my favorite things to do is comparing politicians to animals. Especially if you take a picture of animal, and superimpose it or place it next to the picture of the politician. Here's an example: look at Jeb Bush. Look at James Slug. Note the similarities. They are basically indistinguishable. Yes, one’s a slimy mollusk and the other is a slug, but Jeb Bush’s record as governor of Florida is definitely slimy.
Socially, Governor Bush was involved heavily with the Terry Schiavo case (a case in which the right of a woman in a vegetative state to die was challenged). It should have been clear that if Mrs. Schiavo’s brain was irreversibly damaged, then allowing her to continue to live under these conditions would be certainly immoral. Bush, along with his brother, the president, pushed against the removal of her feeding tube. Governor Bush also pushed for the removal of government funding for stem cell research, which is valuable scientific research that can lead to cures and treatments for many common ailments and diseases.
Jeb Bush not only favored the death penalty, but he made it easier to executions to occur. He slashed taxes in a move that favored the wealthy alone. He increased minimum sentences for juvenile offenders and fought to prevent the decriminalization of marijuana.
With this side-by-side comparison in mind, let's evaluate the values of Jeb Bush.
Maybe we should think twice before considering a slug for president.
