Boehner Sympathizes with Jindal

Boner is just that!

I’m not a republican but the speech was pretty good. It does seem that the republican did not want to change their way of thinking when society has changed. Not so say the dems know exactly what’s going on. I do like Obama only because thus far he seems to get it. I want the republicans to get it and the dems in congress to get it understand it and make better legislation.

That was one flat, boring, and obviously self-serving speech. And, still, no ideas to help the country except “cut taxes”. Sorry, Bobby & John, we’ve been there and done that and look at what it has gotten us.

He made O-DUMB-AH look patheic, The left wing, haters in the media, are trying their best to protect this president from becoming the laughing stock of America adn the world

The problem with the Republican response:
It was disconnected from the speech that the President actually gave. I would expect a response to contain points of agreement identified and points of disagreement identified. It was a generic broad brush response that came off as anti-many things and gave me the impression that Republicans will cooperate only if they get their way otherwise don’t count on them to support anything.

If Obama cured cancer, the Republicans would still hate him.

Seth Meyers said it best a couple of weeks ago – ‘Hey, you guys know it dosen’t work with just ANY black guy – right ??’

What a historic moment….the empty suit President anointed by the media (like ABC) as our savior, with the two biggest boobs of all time – Biden and Pelosi – sitting behind him, grimacing mindlessly. Way to go America….change we can be proud of.

John Boehner is the biggest racist of them all.

Palin,Steele,Jindal Wow the Gop are becoming more and More Funnier these days, In these troubling Times we Need a Little Comedy now and then. Just look to The Republicans for a good Laugh Oh wait I forgot Joe the Plumber hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Sad, just sad. You Repugs are in some serious trouble come 2010 and 2012! If that’s one of your rising “stars” you guys need a galaxy. What an awful speech, or maybe it just sounded so terrible after listening to Obama for nearly an hour and I could have listened to him all night. He is an incredible orator and what he says has substance, too. Poor Jindal. Repugs, please don’t do that to him again. He almost made Palin look good.

It sounded like he was reading from the “Adventures of Huckleberry Finn”

George W. Bush has already won the Laughing Stock of America and the World award. I don’t know what speech that you were watching but Jindal was terrible. If he’s the best candidate that the Republicans have to run in the next election then it looks like the Republicans will suffer another devastating loss and it will be another slam-dunk for Obama. Jindal cannot hold a candle to Obama’s delivery of a speech.
It was a just a pathetic attempt on the part of the Republicans to make Obama look bad when in fact Obama reminded us that it is possible to have a President that can actually speak English and has the capability to put two sentences together, unlike those fools G.W. Bush and Dickie Cheney who are the laughing stock of the entire World and who totally messed up this Great Country.

Jindal’s response was embarassing, and if this is what the Repubs have to counter the Dem leaders, it is a sad state of affairs. I’m not a Repub (thank God!)

Just the Republicans showing the world that their motto still lives “if you can’t do it dumb we won’t do it”.

Palin,Steele,Jindal Wow the Gop are becoming more and More Funnier these days, In these troubling Times we Need a Little Comedy now and then. Just look to The Republicans for a good Laugh Oh wait I forgot Joe the Plumber hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

============================
Agree totally. But you know the funniest part of is all is that
They’re serious.
hahahahahahahahaha
Talk about out of touch!!!!

Where have you been Mr Jindal? suppose for tha last eight years you are in Walla land? Poor president Obama people already want to see him fail.

Not only was it a poor performance but it was also one lie after another. The DEMOCRATIC sheriff Gov. Jindel is referring to was the same Sheriff that blocked people from New Orleans from crossing the bridge into his parish to escape the floodwaters.
And this is the same gov who has a low unemployement rate because of federal dollars flowing into his state for disaster relief following a natural disaster (wouldn’t it be nice if we had a monitoring system to prepare for these disasters….Bobby said NO!)
Bobby, do you think we forgot that the Federal taxpayers gave LA $175 billion in the last 5 years and we actually swollowed the lie that you figured out how to pay for all of your charter schools and infrasture rebuilding from TAX CUTs? It is those federal dollars flowing into your economy that is keeping your unemployement below 6%. But Louisiana is losing 400 jobs per day — so keep thumbing your nose at the stimulas money. There are a ton of Govs who will take it instead.

Omentum
The funniest is trying to watch the Republicans Rebound With their Gimmicks like Picking Palin for woman,And Steele because hes Black, I dont Know what they were thinking about Jindal. Cant wait for the SNL hahahahahahahahahahahaha

In speech style over content, OBama will always win. For content over style, I’ll take Jindal’s belief in the power of the individual over government cradle to grave every day. Obama’s calling for an end to earmarks and not being for big government made me wonder if he was delusional.

Notice: Boehner said “It wasn’t that Bad”
He didn’t say it was GOOD.
Boehner said “It wasn’t that BAD.
I don’t care how many LEVELS of BAD run through Boehner’s Pea Brain….
But BAD is BAD…
Whether it’s Bad, Very Bad or BAD as in [[Atrocious]]
Which was PiYush [Bobby] Jindal’s Case, last Night….
Its all the Rage on the Internet….
Mr. Rogers…
Please Stay in Louisiana…
President Obama and his Administration have Real Work to Do…
Take care of the Federal Funds coming to Your State, to the Tune of 3 billion Dollars and be a Great Steward of the FUNDS…
The Parents & Children of Louisiana Depend on Good Governance.
Once the Check Leaves Washington D.C.
Its YOUR Responsibility…
Not President Obama’s

I now know why Jindal and boehner are buddies and this is because they are both losers. Jindal’s speech was worse than the performance that the Japanese Finance Minister was canned for at the G8 summit…I say we should have a special election tomorrow if Gov.Jindal is the new saviour for the Republicans. And now Jindal is running LA economy into the ditch, it was his insistence on TAX CUTS that has let to LA current budget shortfalls.

Isn’t it interesting that Louisiana has been taking so much Federal money in the past several years. It is currently getting $750,000 million in farm aid (not part of the stimulus) and millions in other forms of funding. They received money for Katrina, which was a natural disaster. If Louisiana was in such good shape under Jindal, why are they taking all this money? Typical two-faced argument by Republicans.

Hey Barb
I agree I And alot of People are soooo Fed up with the Gop,They have no Ideas,No Plans To help this Economy. They only Bash and Bash President Obama. well I say to them Bash on your only Hurting yourselves, Remember During the Election the Things Republicans were Saying about our President well Guess What HE STILL WON You see the More they Bash the Stronger he becomes, and the More support he Gets and The more Republicans GO DOWN BASH ON Republicans

Moderately entertaining to see that my wife was not the only one that thought Jindal’s delivery sounded abit like Mr. Rogers. Rumors are also going around that Jindal is overexaggerting his story about Katrina and Harry Lee, as the sheriff who is now deceased gave an interview in 2005 that he did not find out the reason that private boats couldn’t be used in the reccue was insurance until 7 days after Katrina hit. Still this is just rumor and may turn out to be nothing, so grain of salt.

Jindal? jingly lingly jingle jingle… what a sorry excuse for a speach. This is what Repub. have to counter one of the greatest speaches that Americans have heard since someone smart and educated was in the White House. Jingly jugle was a joke… no substance… no depth… just stories what his father taught him.. that Americans can do antyhing… yea right… are you kidding me?

Jindal: “The New Ronald Reagan”
My A!!

As a republican, I can say that Jinda’s speech was boring and “canned”. It was too coached. Let the man speak what he really has to say and you’ll see how very intelligent and “right” he is. The only interesting stories on those who have now “assumed power” are the stories on how many haven’t paid their taxes and Obama’s horrible vetting process.

Jindal was a joke.

It was every bit that bad and more. He sounded like he was reading a 6th grade book report. And every point he brought up had already been refuted by the president in a much more concise, clear way. If the rising star of the Republican party is so out of touch with current events that he thinks the correct thing to do these days is to play to the 20% far right voters of America then the GOP will be in the permanent minority.

what a joke!, Jindhal was a complete dud. The GOP is trying to find “their Obama”, and it is so transparent. All he could do was criticize, instead of finding constructive middle ground. Obama has been trying to reach both sides of the aisle. He is truly trying to change the tone, and Jindhal is just playing the same old GOP song. “I won’t get along do dah, do dah”. I am sure they would have been the same naysayers to Kennedy’s plan to put a man on the moon. They would have said “that is complete science fiction, stuff of comic books!”. It takes audacious plans to get a country moving. “No” is the easy word,. then nothing changes, but “Lets try” that is hard, as Wayne Gretsky said “I’ve missed 100% of the shots I never took”. It seems like the GOP has party over country. I thought they were spouting the reverse in the campaign. Hmm. Interesting..

Jindal/Palin 2012…bring on the curried moose meat. The guy is as hilarious as Boner. Watch his “S’s” in the video, he sounds like Mr. Hubert on the Family Guy, the old man always after Chris Griffin. Face it, if this is what the Republican Party considers their best, keep it up. We liberals love it.

Gov. Jindal was an embarassment to Louisiana. The guy has done NOTHING for our state except the threat to cut government jobs, not government spending. Someone had it right by saying that is just his way of running a very early 2012 campaign ad, and not to mention, no cost to him.

who was that Jindal? Not a well spoken man. Appears timid and unfeeling to his state. This guy should realize what politics are about.

What used to be known as the republican party is now just another member of a fringe group – no credibility just a bunch of angry people – no reason to even listen to them – it is a dying party -

Next time MK try to make sense!

JIndal is a flash in the pan who is overrated. i have always said that this guy is an idiot. theoly reason he is gov of Louisiana is because nobody else wants to be governor of that state.

MK, WRONG, I think Dr. Rice is amazing. Palin on the other hand….well…

Jindal is just not ready for prime time. The Republican platform of just cutting taxes isn’t going to get it done in the 21st century economy. I’m a registered Democrat who voted for Obama, but I’m a moderate on some issues. I do happen to think that cutting the corporate tax (if they get rid of tax loopholes) would be a good thing. But, I also think that government has a responsibility to offer healthcare to those citizens who do not already have it with their employer. Jindal failed on so many fronts, both in style and substance. He should have offered substantial policy differences in at least one area of interest to Americans (for instance, healthcare or education)instead of doing a campaign ad for himself. Totally wrong venue for promotion. He could have done a lot of better by taking just 1 issue in his limited time and drawn a contrast with Obama. Anyway, I never thought that a hard-core, right-wing Republican will be able to bridge the divide to win a national election. Pawlenty is tons better with cross broad-sections of his party and he governs in a “blue state”. Pawlenty has political deftness and conservative credentials to boot. Pawlenty is the real competition to Obama, not Jindal.

For the Governor of a state that has taken so much money form the Feds since Katrina,he is hypocritical and playing politics. We will remember to ask him this question when he starts to campaign for the presidency.

What I said was that Liberals disagree with Gov Palin or Condeleza Rice or anybody of color and they state that they disagree with their “polices”
But when Republicans disagree with Palosi or Obama and they are against Females and African Americans and are racist.
You can’t have it both ways….

Every time I hear a Republican politican talk about the Democrats spending money, I want to line them up and go down that line soundly slapping each one in the mouth. Talk about wasteful spending…them, after they approved every spending issue that Bush put before them…..those Democrates that helped them, get in line, too. Jindhal not only did you not look like an idiot, you sound like one to me. If I am not mistaken, isn’t your State the one that your party’s leader turn his back on? Duh….you ought to be ashamed of yourself. Louisianna is still in peril.

AngieinPA, my sentiments exactly! LMAO! Mr. Rogers is all I could hear. Whatever message he intended to deliver was completely overshadowed by his terrible delivery! Whether you like it or not, in public speaking, delivery is everything.

O
LOL

seem like all republicans want are huge tax cuts for the rich so those rich people can shut down and move there companies over seas…also they take the money and put it in off shore accounts so they donat have to pay taxes.

President Obama has spent 1.5 billion dollars/hour since being sworn in. Yet the left feels that Bush’s “failed policies” (much less spending) caused the current global economic crisis. I don’t get it.

Amy,
The Democrats don’t control the Senate barely, they have filibuster proof control when you consider that they need only get the vote of one Republican (usually one of the Senators from Maine). The Republican party as a whole has nothing to gain by supporting anything the Democrats do, because the Democrats will get all of the credit if it works. The only chance the Republicans have is if the program fails and they can say they opposed it. Either way, the Democrats have no one to blame for their failures but themselves now.

With that horrible speech, Jindal may have effectively ended any shot he might have been considering for VP or Pres. down the road.

That Republican response to the Presidents speech was the worst I have ever heard. It was pathetic. This is the GOP’s frontman? C’mon. Bush didn’t veto a single spending bill during the entire time that the GOP was in control of congress. Bush vetoed the SCHip bill that would have insured more kids, and now congress improved an even BIGGER s-chip bill…Bush shot himself in the foot on that one. Bush was against a new GI bill (and so was McCain) because it was too generous to veterans. It still got approved by a bi-partisan veto-proof majority…McCain voted against it. The GOP is lost because it is split into too many stubborn factions each composed by single-issue voters.

By refusing to except Stimulus package monies for the state of Louisanna, I think Jindal is doing the residents more harm than good.
There is no way he is oblivious to how poorly alot of the residences are currently living within the state. If for no other reason, take the monies for them and allow them an opportunity to provide a better way of living for them and their families.

This response is just another example of what is wrong with our current system. It seems that neither party will sit down with the other to find common groud from which to build this country up.
It is all about personal agendas and party politics.
People are suffering, many companies are stealing our resources and capital to support their own profits and we have to listen to stuff like this.
It was all, “our” way is better, “their” way sucks.
When asked to participate in the process, the only way is always their way. If the Dems wont play by our rules, we wont play.
The problem is that it was the same way when the power was reversed.
It is time to stop the BS and get to work finding solutions that work. Talk, compromise, sell your options with facts and figures that prove it is right.
Work the problems till a real solution is created. If your idea is really better, sell it with details not with half truths and twisted words.
My favrote critcisms are those that are so selective. The High speed rail money is for a train to Disneyland say the repulicans. BUt what about the proposals to link major midweastern cities like Chicago, Milwaukee Madison and Minneappolis, to increase the business commerce in the area. Then expanding it to other major cities, to eliminate the constant need for Fuel wasting cars and Airplanes.
Lots of good things can be done if they just stop looking for only the negatives.
I think the real majority of the people in this country that may not post to these things, are as tired as I am.
We dont want great big government, but it should be big enough to handle the big issues in the country. Stop fighting and start working.

Jindal like Condi Rice, Clarence Thomas, and Steele are Republican token minorities…..merely Uncle Tom’s who find it to their financial advantage to have sold out to the Angry White Male Republican Party.

If Gov. Jindal is so opposed to taking money from Washington, he ought to cut a check to the American taxpayers who bailed out Louisiana after Hurricane Katrina and all the other storms that have hit his state.

What were the “better solutions” that Jindal espoused?

Ricky, the Dems may have an almost-filibuster-proof majority, but that doesn’t change how American voter view the GOP. People are tired of all the partisan bickering that has thus-far resulted in a do-nothing congress. That is one of the reasons that the Democrats won so many seats last November and will probably win a few more in 2010 if the GOP keeps playing their little schoolyard political games.

Give me a break, internet! This trash has nothing on Mr. Rogers. So, leave him out of it. Be a good neighbor you jerks!

I think it was obvious to all that Jindal’s opinions were quite similar to the President’s. Did not see much opposition here. His response was an affirmation that we picked the right man to be president for our troubled times. After listening to Jindal’s speaking style, I could not stop thinking that he and Jiminy Cricket were seperated at birth.

Boehner saying PiYush did a good job is about as clownish as their last presidential team. PiYush got out there like Kermit the frog and babbled about the Disneyland-Vegas hover-rail, government’s bad – but trust Republicans to run a bad thing, quoted a race baiting sheriff, and right after the President just delivered an uplifting speech proclaiming Americans will come out of this dire situation, PiYush said the exact opposite. PiYush Jindal failure, Palin failure, Steele failure.

Jindal knows by being a democrat was not an option to win from LA. His speech was a dud. And he wants to pick and choose from the stimulus funding what suits him. Not a presidential material.

Jindal and the Repubicans say that tax cuts are the way to end the recession but the Bush admin already did that and look where it got us. Bush tried the tax rebate thing a year ago and it barely made a blip on the economy. Tax cuts alone will not do it! History has already proven that. Republicans need to open their eyes.

As all of the Repugnicans come out in droves to bash anything and everything Obama and the Democrats have to say, I’ll just pop in here and add my two cents.
DOWN WITH THE GRAND OLD PARTY!!!
(old being the operative word, as there’s nothing grand about them, and there sure as he!! isn’t anything left to party with after the last 8 years)
I especially love how the GOP is screaming about PBO’s spending. Oh, irony!!
– =D

What a self serving speech that apart from that cut tax, has nothing to do with response to the president’s speech. I did not know election campaign has come that early. It would back fire on him.

I don’t know why there is so much criticism about Jindhal’s speech last night. It was short, sweet, and to the point. It had all the conservative, logical, common sense approach to handling these problems. It was SO much better than all the hot air spewed out by Barack Obama. Jindhal talked about the inefficiency of the government after Katrina, a prime example of why the government shouldn’t get bigger and that individuals are better at doing things. All Obama wants to do is make the government more powerful. Spending on more social programs is marxist heaven. Jindhal was spot on and had real solutions. I am so happy that the GOP has a huge pool of talent in its future. I thought Pelosi’s eyes were going to keep popping out of her head! Go Jindhal, we are proud of you! You proved that reason, not emotion is the better choice!

I actually like the idea of a high-speed rail system. But it bothers me it’s being sold as “stimulus” that will probably only benefit Illinois (President Obama’s turf) and Vegas/LA (Pelosi/Reid turf). The fact is, it won’t get done in time to stimulate anything, and somehow the entire country is expected to pay for trains that only benefits two states.
Note that I live in Illinois along the planned rail route, so my criticism is not about being selfish.

his speech was self serving, missed the boat completely and if Boehner backs this speech than we must be very worried for the state of NEVADA……

Someone should tell this Republicon Retread that the reason his state is getting stimulus money is to try and repair the damage that the Moron Bush and the Criminal Cheney left behind. If he starts running now, he should be back in Slumdogville by 2012.

When Republicans say tax cuts are the answer, that’s just reassurance to their big business buddies. While an individual would receive a whopping $300-$600 rebate, big businesses pocket hundreds of tousands of dollars. And what they leave out is, money for tax cuts is borrowed as well. All this blabbering about borrowing money from China, yadda yadda yadda is a scam.

Jindal is one of those freaks who got a biology degree so he could try to make creationism seem like science. He only got that degree to be a nuisance to real scientists. When that didn’t pan out, he was rewarded for his loyalty with a political career. He is an enemy of science, he is an enemy of mine.

President Obama’s victory in the election has been clearly explained, and it’s not really about his policies. Please see the web site howobamagotelected dot com for more info.

Getagrip, get a grip on yourself. You really shouldn’t accuse Pres Obama (Dem) of being a liar! We just got rid of the biggest liars, Bush and Cheney (Repubs), of all, and Bush and Cheney led us into war where so many of our boys and girls have been maimed or killed and families will never be the same. AND THAT’S JUST ONE EXAMPLE, so you are like the “pot calling the kettle black,” my dear.

Marco, ratings go up after every convention. It only makes sense. Look past the last election before you claim yourself a professional in politics.
And Obamas Win was a landslide. They called it off at 11PM EST. Thats pretty incredible. 3%is alot of people.

Bob–before you tanked into character degradation, your points were right on and crystalized the main difference between the parites is the size of government. I have yet to see an efficient, cost-effective government run program and the “stimulus” package sets up 36 more such programs…

The republicans pulled this bozo out of the swamp simply because it would have been impossible for any republican in Washington to rebuke anything that Obama laid out last night since everyone knows that it was their playing lap dog to Bush for eight years that got us into this nightmare. It would have been a big joke for any one of them to try and make a rebuttal to this brilliant speech and they all knew it. Anyway, I was overjoyed to hear that Mitch McConnell played a part in recruiting this little spineless weasel for this lame attempt in trying to out speak a great leader.

Open Mind… Me too. If a high speed, light rail system is engineered, planned, laid, from Los Angeles to Vegas…GREAT. It’ll create JOBS!!! Then revenue from is will go into an LA-San Fran line, then a Vegas-Phoenix line, then a Phoenix-Oklahoma City line, and so on and so forth. JOBS around a vast spectrum. Environmental studies, Land surveyors, Laying tracks, Building rail cars, conductors, etc…what’s so ridiculous about a new, advanced, high speed, light rail system? I don’t get it. I guess they’re acting Hooverish resisting the New Deal freeway system.

Action speaks louder than WORDS!!! It is affirmative, Obama is the BEST!!! Now, adopt an attitude of gratitude, an appreciate him by actively becoming a part of the solution. Losers complain, while real WINNERS take action(s) that create positive changes.
Practice being PROACTIVE, instead of reactive, and we will become ONE America, standing strong, a country that others will be proud to emulate.
Peace and Blessings Sheryl :)

So once again, Repubs are circling the wagons and drinking another bottle of denial. Jindal stunk it up because he tried to be “me too” guy on Obama’s story of success. American’s didn’t buy the B.S.! Then Jindal tried the old, phony propaganda of “government is too big” with the Katrina fiasco. What a divergence from the truth! Americans remember who was in charge during Katrina. We know it was a Republican disaster; handled by political hacks who were friends of Bush, but not necessarily qualified to run FEMA. REPUBS HAVE EGG ON THEIR FACE BECAUSE THEY ARE STUBBORNLY STUPID AND ARROGANT. THEIR “NO TAXES ON THE RICH” SHIP CAN SINK IN VIOLENT FLAMES. Stuff it GOP.

jindal is only american by birth. his culture is hindu. he’s the republican hopeful, ha! he probably doesn’t even understand baseball. and he wants to someday be president, ha! The only true americans are the people that worked this land in its youth. And thats blacks and whites. every body else got here after. besides he talks with an accent and thats not american, i don’t care how you cut it.

The GOP is so confused over Obama (a Black man) being the president of the United States of America…
They just don’t know what to do….They got Michael Steele heading their party…….Before Obama, David Duke probably had a better chance of heading the GOP than Michael Steele

The Republican response is indicative of what I have maintained for some time: they are in disarray and out of touch with the middle class. Why would anyone think they could change this quickly (if they ever do at all)!

Please! The republicans believe in small government???!!! What a laugh! They only believe in small government when they are not in charge! And how about that lie about how republicans “went along” with big government spending, THEY WERE IN CHARGE OF IT!!! They led it, they did not just ‘go along’. Republicans only want America to fail and fall further because they are out of power.

The Note – Your Source for Republican News!
Republicans are currently the minority party, and, in the last election, the Democrats gained more members as well as votes. But ABC keeps us informed of every little nuance among the minor Republicans, AS IF WE CARE!
News flash to ABC: McCain lost. The Democrats control the House, and Senate (barely). The President is assembling a new cabinet of people whose decisions will affect your lives and mine. Might you find some interesting stories among the people who have actually assumed power?
I have quit watching ABC, I like Charlie Gibson and george Stephenopolisis… but ABC keeps putting the super republican George Will on the air with his biased garbage.
As long as George Will is on ABC they will be at the back of the pack and bankrupt.

wow this is great stuff

He made O-DUMB-AH look patheic, The left wing, haters in the media, are trying their best to protect this president from becoming the laughing stock of America adn the world

Whats your fix then Jefferson? Tax cut? My fat ass boss took 20% of my pay, then bought his new gal a used car (knew her all of 1 day). It only works if idiots arent in charge.

**********
Concervitives have this delusion about Obama worship because they deified GWB for so long.

I thought his response was as lame as the GOP…tax cuts for the wealthy is all they can espouse to the American public. These people don’t “get it” because they all make over $250K a year and are not under threat of foreclosure. Isn’t it odd that in the poorest states in the U.S. the GOP dominates. Either southerners are just too ignorant to read, vote, or give a damn of they’re just too oblivious. Crazy!

Card Carrying [[Conservative Republican]] ….
David Brooks On PiYush [Bobby] Jindal’s Pre-Recorded Rebuttal…
Keep in Mind, PiYush Jindal made his Rebuttal Speech, Prior to hearing President Obama’s Speech !!
Read on…
PBS: David Brooks, reacting to Bobby Jindal’s rebuttal speech about as strenuously as Brooks ever reacts to anything.
I’ll sum up: DISASTER NIHILISM INSANE DISASTER. Basically, the lyrics of the typical Norwegian black metal band, spoken aloud by the author of Bobos in Paradise.
Anyway, for everyone who wanted a more substantive response to the man who launched a thousand channel changes than, “OMG he is Kenneth the Page,” there you go.
BROOKS: Not so well. You know, I think Bobby Jindal is a very promising politician, and I opposed the stimulus package -
I thought it was poorly drafted – but to come up at this moment in history with a stale, “government is the problem…we can’t trust the government”…it’s just a disaster for the Republican Party.
The country is in a panic, now. They may not like the way the Congress passed the stimulus bill. The idea that government is going to have no role in this…in a moment where only the Federal government is big enough to do stuff…to just ignore all that and say government’s the problem…corruption, earmarks, wasteful spending – it’s just a form of nihilism.
It’s just not where the country is, it’s not where the future of the country is. There’s an intra-Republican debate: some people say the Republican party lost its way because it got too moderate, some people say they got too weird or too conservative. He thinks they got too moderate, and he’s making that case.
I think it’s insane.
I think it’s a disaster for the party.
I just think it’s unfortunate right now.

He would have be great in Slumdog Millionaire, he is out of his league on the national scene. You Pub’s can do better. I hope.

Governor Jindal may not like big government, and he may not like Washington spending, but I am amazed at the hypocracy. Tens of billions of dollars in federal aid flowed to Louisiana and other states devastated by Katrina. I didn’t see one Republican refusing to take the money. Oh yes, many didn’t like the way some of it was spent (“my pie isn’t as big as your pie”) but they took the money anyway. So I pray that we do not have another diaster in New Orleans and Louisiana in the future – otherwise I for one am going to tell the Gov, sorry kid you can’t take that money – people gotta suffer and make it on their own (even when fellow Republicans and FEMA directors in suit and day before the kleig lights tell survivors things are just fine – “how do I look on screen”).

Dumb Republicans want to cut taxes, which will lead to less services. Less medical services. Less police services. Less fire prevention services. Less disaster relief services. Less retirement and entitlement payments. They want to cut taxes to Reagan era lows (Why they love that fool, when he cut taxes one year and raised them every single year afterwards, is beyond me) but our population has ballooned by 65,000,000 people (and that doesn’t factor stressors placed on the services by illegals).

These days Republicans have no ideas, no creativity, no energy, no passion, nothing new to offer. They have only one idea for everything –”Tax Cuts! Tax cus! Tax Cuts!” Unfortunately, world is more complex and problem solving requires intelligence, creativity and out of the box ideas these days. We live in 2009, not 1989.

KP, it reads fine..yeah if you like to hear “government’s bad, less taxes, let the republic party run the bad thing”. But, the visual was atrocious!!! Then to have an anchor baby rebutting the President was borderline straight jacket material.

The idea expressed in Gov. Jindal’s speech is well received, but it does not address the inherent greed in people. Yes, people should be in charge, but who is there to protect the people from those who allow greed to take over. I think this was evident in the last administration, and the effects are being felt today.

Obama rocked the house while Jindal fell flat on his face. These two couldn’t be more opposite in oratory skills or demeanor. RIP GOP – Good riddance!

Let’s see……..Palin, Steele and now Jindal, the GOP seems to be moving in the wrong direction or have they just plain given up?
I haven’t a trio like this since Larry, Moe and Curly.

KP we had the biggest goverment spending with pork included (but it was Republican pork so it was ok in thier eyes)in all times under Republican rule, the biggest growth in Government in all times under republican rule, Health care premiums hikes, under republican rule. CEO’s and CFO’s cooking the books under republican rule, and the first bank bail out, that we had to have and was to help the everyday people, but in the end the Republicans gave billions to these banks with no over site, and we hear about the bonus, the parties, and the vacations on Taxpayers dimes all under republican rule. Yep we the citizens just do not get it, but Wall Street does

FACT: Spending under President Obama will be SEVERAL TIMES anything Bush has ever spent. Again … please explain how that is good, yet smaller spending under Bush was bad.

Demsgreat, you are mistaken. The current situation is NOTHING like the great depression. Not even close. It’s not even as bad as Carter yet. Those are FACTS. Look at the numbers … unemployment, inflation, etc. All were worse under Carter and MUCH worse under FDR.

So from the comments I read the Republicans lost, Dems are in control (and have the answers to save the country) so all Republicans and those that voted them into office should just leave America (because shoot if the Dems have the answer why are we arguing with them). Only one voice to be heard and it should be Democrat.. Sounds almost like a dictatorship in the making. But wait.. who’s been in control of Congress for the past hhhmmm 2 years?? Could it be…

txjan1212 you need to check again for who has been in control of Congress for the past 2 years, and this means control not more members in the seats, you know filibusters and all that, it is the percentage that counts. Also we need to get this country moving again, it will take all of us to do it not just us or them ALL of us. As they teach us while working for a company you need team work, but you will always get the squeaky screw. We as American have to ask are these people elected looking out for me, or for themselves. Our elected Officials need to be working for the AMERICAN PEOPLE. If you are not for ALL the American People you are agaist them.

Bobby Jindal’s speech moved me,”OK THAT’S IT, THAT’S IT”. However, even though Obama had a great speech at last night, today, Stock markets says Dow closed down 80 points, again. Obama’s glorious inauguration’s day, the day Tim unveiled rescue plan of Banks, Obama enunciated of the Bill of Stimulus package and Obama signed on the Bill, stock markets plunged totally 1,000 point more. You know, Citi bank’s stock marked for $2.75 which you can’t buy ice cream. NO MORE BIG SPEECH BY PRESIDENT,OBAMA UNTIL STOCK MARKETS IS STEADFAST.
AWESOME BOBBY JINDAL/PALIN/2012

Well Open-mind. You can say that, but I know plenty of people who aren’t doing as well as you! We may not be there yet, but it sure is getting scary. Oh yeah, you probably want to point to Obama now, but forget it. This started with Bush–actually the king of deregulation himself, Reagan. A guy who pretended to be a common man, but was just a shill for the rich. He ditched the Dems after he made his millions. Another turncoat Reagan was. FDR’s depression started with Coolidge, I believe. But yes, let’s all blame the guy who is president now. Some open mind you have.

To Lou, Bobby Jindal who was born in Lousiana in USA is not Hindu, but
devoted Roman Cathoric now. He had ever confessed his faith journey that he converted from Hindu to Roman Cathoric in Public. By the way, is Barack Hussein Obama Christian or Muslim ? May be both. You can search of Jindal through wikipedia.org

Well Sarah Palin must be proud.

PiYush Jindal: Was a Practicing [[Hindu]] for 17-18 Years.
Hindus do not Eat Meat, they are Strictly Vegetarian and Believe the Cow is Sacred…
Note:Jindal and his Entire Family are [[Vegetarians]]
I could care less what he chooses to Eat, but I believe his Choice of Religion is Political, Not Spiritual.
—————-
Jindal then Converted to [[Roman Catholicism]] so the story goes.
I believe it was Politically Expedient for him to do so…
His Ambitions, as in his Ambitions to be President in 2012, is Obvious.
By PiYush Jindal, placing his Ambition over the People Living in his State.
By Denying certain facets of the Stimulus Bill.
Hey Bobby, I mean Governor PiYush Jindal, Send the Entire 4 Billion Back to Washington…
You are Standing on Republican Principles…Remember ?
Whatever that is Suppose to mean ?
————–
You want [Big Government] Out of Our Lives…
“We Can Do Anything”
Try it without the 4 Billion Dollars…
Ronald Wilson Reagan.
That’s what Rush Limbaugh called You and YOU Believe it..Huh

Demsgreat, I’m also curious what you believe Bush “deregulated” that caused the current global recession and US financial crisis.
If you’re referring to the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (which repealed many of the banking regulations of the 1930s), that was signed into law by President Clinton, not President Bush.

Comparing Jindal to Mr. Rogers is an insult! Apologize to Mr. Rogers right now!!

Open-Mind, you win on old Slick Willie. He played along with deregulation–to a point. But to say that things got out of hand during his presidency is a joke. As you might say: “The dot.com bust hardly compares to what we are living with today. As for Bush, when you have 2 terms and at no point think things are starting to spiral out of control, then you try to hide the free fall for a year, well . . . that is irresponsible and reckless, and harming Americans who have had no say in the game. So, if you want to ignore Bush and Cheney’s pathological misdeeds, then go right ahead. Democrats can be fools, but they aren’t evil. Sorry, Bush and Cheney are.

Bobby Jindal is a joke – they must’ve run him out of his country, for his lack of empathy. He’s trying so hard to please us, white America and frankly, it’s disgusting. I voted for Obama. I’m white, a former Republican and upper middle class. Fancy that, Bobby Jindal.

Who are these people that’s been elected to their states highest office. Palin and now Jindal………………………..they’are hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

pamp205 commented:
A Democrats dream team…
Jindal/Palin in ’12…Joe the Plumber for Secretary of State.
—————————————–
I agree however, after getting to know Palin, I am thinking she would want to be on top…Palin/Jindal…’12
Yeah, I was not impressed with Jindal but, also not surprised by what Republicans think are good representations of their party anymore…
My son will be able to vote in 2012 and I tell him, great! we can go to the polls together and vote for Obama, you know, Mother/son bonding…but he teases me and says he’ll vote Republican cuz, he knows it would bug me…I get quiet and sulk and then he comes up,hugs me and says, just kidding Mom.
Isn’t it terrible when we parents use guilt to get our kids to do stuff.
But,whatever it takes…
The really sad thing is that I was never a party line person until I have had a chance to see the GOP acting so small.

Really they would have better off to let McCain do it-
Jindal had all of the buzz words alright but I think some jr. high school kids could have done something more polished than that.
Enough has been said about the speech so I won’t belabor the obvious but it’s pretty clear the GOP does not get it at all.
They keep try and reliving the 2006 and 2008 elections and still can’t believe the reign of corruption is over… HA HA HA
Palin & Jindal 2012!
HA HA HA

SNL needs to get Kenneth the page, another 30 rock cast member, to do a skit on Jindal now. Watched a you tube video and his character from 30 rock is dead on Jindal.

In my previous post, I meant to say, “It’s prudent to see reasonable funding of volcano monitoring because of their potential to wreak havoc on vast areas and affect air travel as well.”

As an Indian American I have watched Mr. Jindal’s meteoric rise in American politics with some interest even though I don’t agree with him on the issues. Yesterday he completely flopped. His body language showed discomfort, his voice had no authority, even the content of the speech with silly references to what he had done in Louisiana wasn’t up to the gravity of the situation we face now.
If this was the republican response to Barack Obama, it was like shining a flash light back at the Sun.

If
The leaders of the republican party—Sean and Rush are very happy with the 37 year old Governor’s rebuttal.

I thought this was a blog about Jindal. Instead you’ve turned it into an ad for Rush Limbaugh. It’s like asking for a comment about Obama’s speech and instead talking about how much Oprah influences him.

I agree with Boehner. Jindal did a great job. It is unreasonable for anyone to compare him with the Nokia Communicator who got into the white house with his mouth and nothing else. Jindal has brains and we know this because his work in Louisanna speaks for itself. As for the communicator, he is also a fast worker-look at the trillion dollar defecit he has got the country into! Americans take great joy in anyone who can talk them out of their money . This is what the credit cards and the Communicator have done to them. Very rarely, a jewel like Jindal can emerge and is quickly discarded as this nation prefers ‘costume’ jewellery. America, Jindal is your priceless Jewel from India. Treasure it and you will find your way out of this mess so that riches and greatness can be restored to you. If you bury this ‘priceless jewel’, America you are heading for poverty!

The kick off campaign of Gov. Jindal, I mean the GOP response was a mess. His delivery was like he was talking to a class of 3rd graders. (Maybe he got the same 3rd grade class that Gov. Palin was answering questions for!) No new ideas, just auto response of the GOP agenda which by the way DIDN’T WORK.
I’m new to this arena, so I don’t profess to be an expert like some on the message board, but it seems to me that if the GOP was in control for the last 6 years,and in the White House for the last 8 years, then why are we in the horrible state we are in? The GOP had the reigns. Look where you took us.

Jindal did so bad he went on vacation.

I dont understand America! Jindal a priceless ‘Jewel in The Crown’ is being
trampled in the mud by pigs while the fakes are being adored and even crowned. Many ‘sad’ years for America… until ur eyes are open to know the difference between the ‘precious’ and the ‘worthless’.

usual misinformed Democrats–Angie, Democrats were running Louisiana when Katrina happened–that is why it was mismanaged–get your facts straight before you make ignorant, Obama delusional statements. Obama has lied through his teeth every day. That wide grin is because he is conning all of you. Please do not try to be successful. Democrats will keep you down.

Jindal is definitely running for President 2012. His speech was disconnected from Obama’s, it was totally self serving. Speaking of which, he’s such a tough guy, saying he was turning away stimulus $$, when he was offered 3.8 billion, but took just over 3.7 billion of it – ooooooh, he’s such a ‘tough’ guy! Says his state didn’t ‘need’ extra unemployment benefits. I’d like to see HIM live on current benefits, and see what he’d do if he couldn’t get hired by the time they ran out.
The Republicans’ answer to Obama? Do they mean a non-white candidate? Come ON. Let’s be a little racist, shall we?

Can you SEE Jindal and Palin in a Debate just among their Republican Peers ?
1. Tim Pawlenty
2. Rick Perry
3. Kay B. Hutchison: Is is Far More Experienced as well as More Intelligent than Sarah Palin.
4. Newt Gingrich
5. Mitt Romney
Just to name a Few.
Now Imagine the DIRT that will be Thrown at Jindal and Palin, by their own Republican Peers ?
Jindal and Palin, would not make it out of the Republican Primaries, more over Garnering the Republican Nomination for the Presidency

simplecake–no, thank goodness there is no comparison of Jindal to Obama–Obama is a big-mouth smoothie and Jindal is a capable, brilliant Governor. I am surprised Obama still has followers with his attempt to destroy America in a few short weeks.

Gov, Jendyl made one statement that was not entirely true….Louisiana received millions of dollars for infrastructure after the flood from the government. All was not achieved by his efforts and ideas. People don’t forget things like that. It is hard to follow Obama in a speech but he looked like he linked on to all of his phrases and incorporated them in his speech trying to make everyone think they were his. I would have appreciated his own phrases not copies of Obama.( i.e. the people are resilient and many others.)

Here is my thing – Gov Jendyl complained about the $140M the USGS spends (which only a part) is for volcano warnings. Gee where would Louisiana be if there was no hurricane warning???
Is this guy all the Republicans have? What a joke! All the ‘free’ money the American Taxpayer is still paying to help Louisiana and this guy has the nerve complain!!
I am amazed that the governor would use this example, considering his own states recent brush with a catastrophic natural disaster.

Whatever Rush thinks, the totally opposite is true. btw….Obama won by 7 percentage points and an EC landslide. McCain carried those states in which nobody lives. Knock yourself out though dittohead!

Bobby Jindal, Fatboy’s “Brown Magic Boy”?

George’s Bush + Cheney’s D!ck = Bobby’s Jinatal

PiYush Jindal is so Messed Up, that he had to Run to [Disney Land] as his Sanctuary !!
————–
You would think that PiYush Jindal would’ve learned from John McCain’s Green Screen Dibacle on the Night of President Obama’s Democratic Acceptance Speech…
Its Ironic that McCain’s Green Screen Fiasco was held in Louisiana, Jindal’s Governing State !!
Now Jindal is Victim #2 !!
Now it’s 2 for 2 !!
PiYush Jindal, being the Latest 37 Year Old, Rep. Sacrificial Lamb !!
Jindal and his Rush Limbaugh, Ronald W. Reagan Illusions of Grandeur have been CRUSHED, before they’ve even started.
Disney Land would be a Sanctuary, for Mr. Rogers…
Actually, Disney Land, is the Perfect Place for the Clone of Mr.Rogers…
Very Appropriate..Indeed

Let the stats speak for themselves. For those governors opposing the stimulus bill:
State Infant Mort. Edu. Wage
MS 1 50 48
LA 2 48 31
SC 3 41 40
AL 4 45 33
Fix your state problems before offering any opinion to the rest of the union!!!
Wake up, America. Why would these governors offer anything meaningful to this country? Do you trust Bobby Jindal to offer anything substantial to your kids education, health care and the economic development of this country? He can’t even fix the state of LA, what makes you think the so called “solutions” offered by him will be anything but a boat load of crap (pardon my language)… If you truly want to save your childrens’ future, please invest in education and health care. If we don’t, the whole nation will, one day, become one of these four states!!!

*** TRIVIA OF THE DAY ***
George’s Bush + Cheney’s D!ck = Bobby’s Jinatal
Cheney’s D!ck + George’s Bush = Sarah Palin
Bobby’s Jinatal + Sarah Palin = A Boehner

*** TRIVIA OF THE DAY ***
George’s Bush + Cheney’s D!ck = Bobby’s Jinatal
Cheney’s D!ck + George’s Bush = Sarah Palin
Bobby’s Jinatal + Sarah Palin = A Boehner

[[Free Handouts]]
Jindal and his State Louisiana,are the Greatest Recipients of [[Government Handouts]]
To the Tune of [[Millions-Katrina]]
To the tune of [[4 Billion]] from Obama’s Stimulus Money and PiYush Jindal is taking it all, but…
[100 Million Dollars]] !!
Hand Outs My A!!

Bobby is Against “Big Government”
That is…
Borderline Bull-Spit !!!
Most of the Millions sent to Louisiana have Come from “Big Government”
Jindal has his Hands out on All Fronts..
An 90 % or More is from [Federal Millions]
PiYush Jindal is a [[HYPOCRITE]] to the [[HIGHEST DEGREE]]
If Jindal is Against “Big Government” I’d love to See it on paper.
His State Depends [[Heavily On Government Funding]] and the Audacity of Jindal’s Platform was that “Big Government” is the Evil Guy and yet..
It is Jindal who is Constantly Seeking MORE Millions from “Big Government” for New Orleans and Pretends that he is standing on “Republican Principles” by Denying a Poultry [[100 Million]] from a …
[[4 Billion Federal Check To His State]]
PiYush Jindal has Both Hands Out for Government Millions, for New Orleans and he’s getting a Big Fat [[4 Billion Dollars]] from Obama’s Stimulus Plan !!!
Yet it is “Big Government that needs to get out of the Way” !!
If “Big Government” got out of the way…
New Orleans would be Under Water, Right Now, without “Big Government !!
There’s a Reason why there is Federal, State, County & City Governments, Mr. Jindal..
You and Your State [Louisiana] are a Prime Example of Federal Millions [[New Orleans]] and Federal Billions [4 Billion] to Jindal’s State of Louisiana, Minus Jindal’s Nick Picking by Jindal Minusing Out of [[100 Million]] Federal Dollars…
Jindal, Don’t Accept Any of the Damn Money, because this Shameless Display of what is suppose to be “Republican Principles”
Is Plain Ole Double Talk and Political Aspirations, being Placed Above Your State Residence.
PiYush Jindal, You are Not Ronald Wilson Reagan, No Matter how much Rush Limbaugh, has Convinced You, that you are.
You are not ready and You will Never, Ever be Ready…Period
——————
Jindal is so Messed Up, that he had to Run to [Disney World] as his Sanctuary !!

Obama is Right, “It did not take over night to the U.S. into this MESS and it will take Time to get the U.S. out of this MESS”
President Obama also said, “It will get WORSE, before it gets BETTER”
—————-
That’s Sobering, That’s a FACT and that is the BITTER REALITY”
So looking at the Stock Market, every day is not a Reflection or Indicator of this New Presidency, it is a SIGN of the TIMES.
Note: The Stock Market has been BAD for Nearly 7-8 Months.
——————
The Stock Market will take some time to Recover.
Speculators, Dictate Wall Street and the Inaternational Markets are even WORSE than the U.S. Market.
—————
Wasn’t Wall Street Bailed Out By President Bush ?
Bailed Out Wall Street & even Bailed Out Banks !!
Noone Bailed Out the Average American Citizen…
————-
I’d rather have Obama in the Oval Office, than McCain-Palin…
On Any Day of a Calender Year.

Of course, the Obamaphile media already have their long knives out for Governor Jindal… in a similar approach to the one used on Palin: paint him as a wack-job, an eccentric, and just too far-right for American voters. Outfits such as the Huffington Post are already trying to nip Jindal’s ascension in the bud.
But they are right about one thing; they DO have reason to fear the electoral appeal and success of Bobby Jindal. This accomplished conservative doer is the very antithesis to the Democrat’s unaccomplished, liberal talker now in the White House.
Jindal oozes competence, and is a gifted communicator, with a trademark rapid-fire delivery. And his resume is nothing short of astounding.
His story as the son of Indian immigrants is truly a fulfillment of the American dream. Simply put, Jindal embodies a GOP ideal; America offers a chance to those who want it take it and run with it, rather than entitlement to those who simply have the “audacity” to come here and demand it.
So go get ‘em, Bobby… you’re a good man, and perhaps someday a great one.

Obama is a Far Greater Speaker than Ronald Wilson Reagan, but Krauthammer is right as right can be, in his assessment of President Obama.
The Following Presidents all moved this Nation…
1. President Barack H. Obama
2. President John F. Kennedy
3. President Ronald W. Reagan
4. President Franklin D. Roosevelt
5. President Harry S. Truman
6. President Teddy Roosevelt
7. President William J. Clinton
8. President Abraham Lincoln
You can Choose the Order, but it is a Natural Fact, these Men Moved a Nation and it translated across the Globe.

Ed Rollins said it best when asked how Jindal did? He said “it was a good day for Sarah Palin.” Nothing else need be said.

PiYush “Bobby” Jindal
There’s a reason for ..
Federal, State, City and County Governments
Federal Funds are Allocated to the States, making the State’s Governors, Mayors, County & City Governments Responsible for the Distributed Federal Funds.
Governor, PiYush Jindal that means YOU are Responsible for the [[4 Billion, Federal Dollars]] coming to you !
If you are Against “Big Government”
Reject the [[4 Billion]]
HYPOCRITE

TO REPUBLICANS: Please circle one as your party’s leader: (A) JoeThePlumber, (B) Rush Limbaugh, (C) Sarah Palin, (D) Sean Hannity, (E) PiYush Jindall, (F) Hell, who ever will take the job at this point.. You can only circle one.. My choice is F, which coincides with the republicans ratings to date….

PiYush “Bobby” Jindal is using his Roman Catholicism as a Political Front.
Hindus do not eat Meat.
Jindal’s entire Family does not eat Meat.
Jindal, Pronounces his name [[Jindle]]..
To appease his White Audience, they are not Fooled by this Deception.
His name is Pronounced [[Jindaal]]
Jindal is the only Politician to run using a Nick Name, oppose to using his Birth name..
[[PiYush]]

I thought Jindal speech was great. And no, he was not trying to be a sweet talking snake oil salesman. A doer talks like Jindal. A talker with no plans talks like Obama. With where the country is, I’ll take a doer over a talker any day.
