Campaign says Bush was 'mistaken' about NRA award
By Ashley Killough, CNN

Manchester, New Hampshire (CNN)Jeb Bush loves talking about how Moses once gave him a gun.

A staunch supporter of Second Amendment rights, Bush frequently tells the story of being honored as National Rifle Association "Statesman of the Year" and being awarded a gun by Charlton Heston.

"You know who you're lookin' at here? You're looking at the guy who won the NRA Statesman of the Year award," Bush said last month at a town hall in Milford, New Hampshire. "Not the Florida award. The national award. And I got a rifle from Charlton Heston, I got a rifle from Moses."

[ALLSEEINGEYE]

clowns like this are the only reason a maniac like Trump can be leading their party.

What does it matter who gave him the gun?

He is in high standing with the NRA, that all that matters.

[MadDog2020]

OK, who wouldn't take a gun from Moses. Even if you didn't like guns.

[Ulic]

That is too funny.

[luckyman]

He comes from a family of lunatics, what did you expect ?

[Dumbastheycome]

Another lying Bush. It always amazed me how GW Bush who basically avoided the Viet Nam draft, persuaded the public that John Kerry, a purple heart winner, was the coward.

Someone should write a book about politics on America!

Mistaken? No, it was a bloody lie.
You can get away with this kind of thing when you are Joe Blow bragging at a backyard barbecue.
When you are contending for the top office in the land you should be smart enough to know the bullshit will always be caught out.
