If you google him right now, the top item is an ABC News headline "Jeb Bush: People Need to Work Longer Hours." He's a political genius.

Next week: Jeb!'s program to shorten men's penises!

This is just one of the many things Jeb is out of touch on, and one of the many reasons he will never be president.

Scalia's already told us words don't mean anything, so why should numbers?

Interesting that wages rose with productivity until around 1980. What ever could have happened then to make that change?

But the IMPORTANT question is how many days did President Cheney take off, 'cause I'm guessing zero. Evil never rests...

Agreed, the harder workers are the ones being paid the least. The more someone is paid, it seems the less they work, all the way to the ones that never work but get money from inheritance, like Bush.

Well Jebbie, you apparently don't realize that many 'part-time' workers have more than one part-time job, you foot-in-mouth bloviating dumbass. While raising families who hardly ever see them. What a SNOB.

Ol JEB has never worked a day in his life; never held a shovel to dig a ditch; never worked on his feet carrying heavy trays for 8-10 hour stretches. This guy doesn't know what hard work really is!
