What Bush suggested is that the GOP follow the practice of opposition parties in nations like Great Britain, elsewhere in Europe, and many other nations that have a Parliamentary form of Government whereby the party in opposition appoints people to a "shadow cabinet" as a means of offering policy proposals in opposition to the ruling government. It's called the "loyal opposition" in some contexts, and while I don't think it is a model that is adaptable to the way we do things in the United States, there's absolutely nothing sinister about it. JDdoolittle,

Which if said by anyone else, in any other country , would be considered an atrocity by the USA. Not when a Republican and especially a Bush ask for this. Then, its seen as ok for some strange reason. You forgot to mention that Jeb, is also pushing for the republicans to start a Shadow Government to undermined Obama.
