Jeb! hypocricy continues - this time on ethics & iffy nominees

Politico digs in to Jeb Bush's record on ethics:

"...Jeb Bush accused President Barack Obama of waiting too long to remove tainted appointees... But Bush's eight-year record shows he often stood by appointees who were mired in scandal or mismanagement until long after damaging revelations emerged, and in only three reported instances clearly fired agency heads - including one in the wake of a sexual harassment allegation and another who was implicated in a kickback scheme."

If Obama did anything close to that we'd never hear the end of it.
