ADULT SUPERVISION:
Jeb Bush, Grilled on Capitol Hill, Differs from Party on No-Tax Pledge (Shushannah Walshe, 6/01/12, ABC News)
Maryland Rep. Chris Van Hollen, the ranking Democrat on the committee, asked Bush if he agreed with Norquist's pledge and he answered, "No.""I ran for office three times," Bush said. "The pledge was presented to me three times. I never signed the pledge. I cut taxes every year I was governor. I don't believe you outsource your principles and convictions to people. I respect Grover's political involvement. He has it every right to do it, but I never signed any pledge."
