I am a compassionate conservative.–GWB
A politician likes to leave blanks in a fundraising letter leaving the reader to fill in the missing details. Here are some examples from Jeb’s recent letter:
- Leadership. That is what is sorely missing in the White House.
- All we need is the right kind of conservative leadership …
- I offer a positive conservative vision …
- You and I must lead a thoughtful conservative reform movement …
- I will be a strong advocate of putting the needs of our kids first.
- As President, I will celebrate success and risk taking …
- There is an entire generation of conservatives in this nation just waiting for us to explain our beliefs …
- You and I must reverse the left-wing policies imposed on Americans by this President …
One thing is certain, Jeb’s explanation of his beliefs, plans, and goals isn’t revealed in his letter; an entire generation of conservatives and others are still waiting. Evidently Jeb thinks it best to keep his views vague, hoping his readers will imagine that their views coincide with his.
