Jeb Bush Fundraises For Tea Party Governor

Jeb Bush on Tuesday attended a fundraiser for Maine’s Tea Party-backed Gov. Paul LePage. LePage is best known nationally for comparing Obamacare to Hitler’s Gestapo and telling the Portland NAACP branch to “kiss my butt.” Last month in the midst of a budget squabble with the legislature he said regarding State Sen.Troy Jackson, “Sen. Jackson claims to be for the people but he’s the first one to give it to the people without providing Vaseline.” Even his own party is embarrassed of him.
