Jeb Reveals That Imaginary ‘Warrior Chang’ Guides His Every Move
Jeb Reveals That Imaginary Friend ‘Warrior Chang’ Guides His Every Move
Posted September 18th, 2005 at 1:57 pm by Trish
This is too weird to make up. Jeb Bush has an imaginary friend. Gainesville Sun:http://www.gainesville.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20050918/COLUMNS/50917061/1096/editorials

Here are Bush’s words, spoken before hundreds of lawmakers and politicians: "Chang is a mystical warrior. Chang is somebody who believes in conservative principles, believes in entrepreneurial capitalism, believes in moral values that underpin a free society.

I rely on Chang with great regularity in my public life. He has been by my side and sometimes I let him down.‘’I rely on Chang with great regularity in my public life. He has been by my side and sometimes I let him down. But Chang, this mystical warrior, has never let me down."

thing, Might rather pick up a book or two by Dr Spock.Does Chang work for Halliburton yet.

25. I had at least five IFs. I lifted them from the H.R. Puffenstuff cast.
Anyhoo, I imagine my imaginary friends would really like to kick Jeb and Chang's asses. Somehow, I think we'd have the upper hand.

15. I am rereading "Swan Song" by Robert R. McCammon, and there is a
paramilitary character who relies upon his "Shadow Soldier" to guide him through a nuclear disaster...chillingly similar.

17. Remember Hillary Clinton and Eleanor Roosevelt?
We were treated to a detailed national discussion in the media about Hillary Clinton's sanity. In case you don't remember this was after she revealed having imaginary conversations with the former first lady.

If it's Hillary vs. Jeb next time I know we'll have to hear all about Eleanor again. Maybe Jeb will be nice enough to tell us more about "Warrior Chang".

34. Remember that scene in Amityvill Horror where the daughter is
talking to her spirit friend? The spirit friend turns out to be an actual demon. If anu bushes actually come right out and say they have a guiding spirit named Chang or whatever, I really wouldn't be too quick to dismiss it as just imaginary. I believe there is a helluva lot of evil guiding that whole bunch, and think about how many people you know who can't see anything but beauty and wonder flying out these guys assholes. Would you ever want to run into ANY of this crowd in the dark?

And now Jeb is giving away the whole deal!
Also, as a Catholic, he's not supposed to be having truck with mystical warriors of unknown provenance. I think Benny needs to be on the case. An exorcism may be in order here!

50. You know, I don't mind the whole idea
of consulting, even in your mind, with someone wiser than you are. Let's say you read a lot of Thoreau, for example -- you might think of that historical personage as somebody to "live up to."

But I don't think this is any kind of historical real person -- this is just someone he's made up. :eyes:

In front of hundreds of people to discuss the invisible neo-conservative warrior with whom I'm friendly with I'd end up discussing it somewhat further with some mental health practitioners.

I can't find a "warrior Chang." I thought he was talking about something else 'til I read the article.

He doesn't need a governor's desk, he needs a psychiatrist's couch.
