How can Jeb Bush possibly have time to govern Florida?

He must do it in between trips to the jailhouse to visit his kids or in between trips to the bail bondspeople to get his family out of the big house.

Today, John Ellis Bush, Jeb's youngest son, was arrested and charged with public intoxication and resisting arrest.

John Ellis has been arrested before--for cavorting naked with an underage girl in an SUV in a parking lot of a Tallahassee shopping mall. Then there was Jeb's other son, George P. Bush, who was arrested for stalking his ex-girlfriend, and convicted of vandalizing her house. Noelle Bush, you'll recall, was arrested and charged with using illegal drugs and forging prescriptions.

Of course, criminal behavior isn't restricted to the Jeb part of the family. Jeb's brother Neil swindled people out of millions of dollars in the Silverado Savings and Loan scandal. Bush never went to jail, but he was banned from the banking business and fined $50,000. George W. Bush, of course, committed insider trading when he was the head of Harken Energy, but he was never convicted because the head of the "investigation" just happened to be his father's attorney. Then there were those DUI arrests and God knows what else in the substance category.

The governor of Florida referred to his son's latest arrest as "a personal family matter."

Also busy, behind the scenes, on the "Last Bush in '08" campaign. I don't want to see it but I bet they want to continue their strangle hold on this country and get Jeb into the White House. Can't walk away from a goldmine.
