Besides what has been mentioned here, Jindal is a Creationist.  And this is not because he grew up in some isolated village in the hinterland where the only book in town was a Bible; he has had every opportunity to know better.  He claims as well to have participated in an exorcism.

I have my doubts that the tide of religious fanaticism is still coming in, here or elsewhere.  If it starts to ebb, the non-religious-fanatical Republicans will have made a bad choice.  I had hoped the elevation of McCain was a good sign, but you know what happened then.

Yeah, it’s a pretty neat trick: the Republicans point to their own failure of governance as proof that government can’t do any good; therefore, their theories are right — and therefore, we should elect more Republicans to run the government!

Yes, all government is BAD. It’s not the fault of the Bush Maladministration that all those people died. Of course not. The real problem was government itself, which is such a bad idea no one should ever try it. The government should only exist to take your tax money and use it to make their rich friends even richer and to fight manufactured wars which enrich the arms dealers thereby ensuring that there will be endless instability in the world so that there will be wars which enrich the arms dealers. It’s a perfect plan. If people like Jindal weren’t so dangerous they would be as funny.

Holy Mackerel——A wog for governor of Louisiana.  Next you know is we’ll have a black man president of the United States!!!!

Minorities have got to be realizing the Repugs use them as Scapegoats, distractions and very likely examples of “Told You so”.
the Repugs seem to be intentionally choosing the worst examples for their ‘token ‘collection.
Sarah a Gov already under investigation for Abuse of Power; J The P, a hack plumber without a Biz who wants to ‘shoot’ politicians and avoid taxes; Steele Who can’t convey his thought clearly or concisely enough not to require ‘Re dos’ and Jindal who screwed the Pooch with Katrina and still hasn’t used the disaster funds to rebuild the 9th ward.
Are they Trying to Prove only white males are worthy of Leadership roles, by throwing out the idiots who think themselves the epitome of their ‘minoiritism’.
There are far better representatives of these groups, more apt and ‘connected’ to the groups reality than any of these Puppets portray.
Frankly I am becoming convinced the enlistment and ‘acceptance’ of Minorities by the White Christian Good Ol’ Boys Club is merely a way to undermine minorities in the eyes of the public, by choosing the weakest examples they can lure in.Oblivious to the betrayal by their Own Blind ambitions.Have a little Self respect and Respect for the Group you represent- innately or by social circumstances.

Why would anyone believe ANY piece of lying, Republican excrement, even if it is a youngupandcomer?

How Refreshing!

A Republican lies! (no surprise there)

Then he ADMITS he lied!

Now there is a “Man Bites Dog” story for ya!

Clown Jindal has now taken the mantle from Sarah Palin and he is running to the cover of Mad Magazine to stand next to his twin—Alfred E. Newman. This guy is a total moron. Clown of the Year—Bobby Jindal

It is worrisome in a real world sense how Republicans can’t seem to distinguish reality from the fantasy world they project through their speeches and policy

This weirdly simpering, preposterously fatuous, lacquered little twerp is the GOP’s biggest threat to Obama in ‘08?

Hallelujah!

I did not see the speech,however I have heard several excerpts….
I have to admit, I enjoy watching a scarecrow light itself on fire.

Is this the best the repugs have to offer for 2012? An Indian trying to impersonate Sarah Palin?

He should aim higher, like Hughey Long!
