Jeb: "I Wasn't Hiding in the Closet"
NewMax.com,the up to the minute conservative site has the latest in the Jeb Bush saga:
Florida Gov. Jeb Bush has disputed media accounts that said he hid in a closet to avoid anti-Republican protesters during a visit to Pittsburgh last week.
Bush encountered protesters Oct. 6 while on his way to a fund-raising event for Republican Sen. Rick Santorum at Pittsburgh’s exclusive Duquesne Club.
Curiously, those media accounts seemed to focus more on the "closet” aspect of the story than on the behavior of the unruly, obscenity-shouting mob. The stories mentioned prominently that Bush sought "refuge in a subway station supply closet.”
Bush said it was actually a boiler room.
Bush said he had to seek safety in the boiler room when he came across the protesters, but also said he was never concerned for his safety because he was taller and "more burly” than most of the protesters who chased him.

Jeb's spare tire does not make him appear more burly. No matter how tall he thinks he is. This is the top ten funniest thing that happen this year. I thank Jeb for the good laugh. We all need those from time to time.

"It wasn't a closet, it was a boiler room."
Like that makes it less funny and have less appearance as a cowardly retreat into an exitless room! And good for you, you're "taller and more burly" than most fo the protestors there. Didn't help Caesar, and he was larger-than-life. He never hid in a "boiler room" ...
