Jindal hits a home run on race
 

http://www.politico.com/story/2013/0...ace-95875.html

Great article. Viable presidental candidate. Any skeletons in his closet to hurt him? I don't mean minor policy faux pas, every real candidate has those.

I really liked Jindal when he ran the first time and then really liked him his first few years in office because he seemed to be outside the typical realms of 'good ol boy' and corrupt politics we usually see in Louisiana. He has since dropped way down on my list. 25,000X better than Blanco, but still a typical Louisiana politician - say one thing and do the other

Rigs to Reefs is a good place to start looking if you want to dig into a scandal;)

Ditto. He's more worried about his future national political career than the future of Louisiana. Way better than Blanco, but I'll be happy when he's gone.

agreed

and would be 25,000X better than the POTUS we have now:rotfl:

I'll never vote for the lil sand ***** again...for any office!!!!

tell us how you really feel Salty lol

Good god.

Jindal writes an opinion piece on racism and salty calls him a sand ******* .... lol the irony.

:rotfl:

I just got my daily laugh......... Thanks Salty!

not voting for him unless he

1. opens wiers year round

2. promises Calc Pt will not be closed

3. raises limit of trout back to 25

4. no limit on tripletail

5. passes regs on how close a boat can come within a boat catching fish

- signed W

:rotfl:

He lost my vote years ago.

NICE

You're quite welcome...glad I could be of assistance.

im curious why such a jindal hater.. im by no means a jindal lover, just curious why so sore?

Because he was so fond of Blank-O! Her recognition of his town being in MS(it's not, BTW) made him madly in love with her!:rotfl::work:

You forgot to add " passes legislation allowing slinging lead at anyone who might be considered a pilgrim"

Because I have at least 2 dozen friends who's jobs were cut by him, or, they were forced to find employment elsewhere not knowing if they would be cut or not. He hammered the Bogalusa hospital system with his cuts instead of splitting them among the other state facilities. Plus, you shouldn't trust a bastard that talks as fast as him.

I apologize for my comment earlier referring to race. It was totally uncalled for.

state jobs?

everyone is always saying we need to reduce government and balance the budget, is that not what happened:confused:

^^^^^This!!! Can't have it both ways.

Well, only if those changes don't affect you or anyone you know.

Nobody ever wants to cut anything that they might be tied to, hence the whole reason we've gotten to where we are now!

The governor is a piece of work, I'll give you that. But the budget problem we have... That baby belongs to the legislature. They have created an environment that promotes wasteful spending. And better yet.. They structure the laws so that the wasteful spending is protected. No governor is gonna change that. It's gonna take the legislature to convene a constitutional convention to undo the damage that they created. Unfortunately, you'll probably need a whole new set of legislators to do that.

If you think that the state is trying to spend money wisely, think again. Drive down I-10 and watch dotd replace road signs with newer ones that says the same damn thing or replace a milage marker with one that says I-10.... In case you forgot what road you were on... Wonder how many jobs were sacrificed so they could put those up???

Anybody know what Jindal's approval rating is now? Back about 3 months ago at the beginning of summer it was 38%. Not only was it lower than the president's....it was the lowest of any present US governor. Apparently, at least some think he ain't done nothin' good.

I'm sure this will head to the Gilnet soon

I agree 100%. Supposedly that is a federal mandate because the existing signs aren't reflective enough. Whatever. Replace just the sign. Reuse the existing posts and concrete. Besides, my wife is rank and file with the Department of Health and Hospitals Medicaid. She has had only one cost of living raise in 4 years, and twice the work load as she had then. No pay raises for state rank and file is really gonna balance their budget? Horse puckey! Cutting the pay of one or two legislaters or top ranking state execute managers will compensate the loss of pay of probably 10 to 20 wage earners. Punishing the rank and file for executive misspending just ain't right and certainly doesn't fix anything.:pissed:

Yeah, all of those that frequent Earl K. Long for the sniffels and, coughs are pissed that they can't go to the Friday night social (aka the waiting room) anymore.

Tough decisions aren't always popular. Popular decisions, especially today, are rarely ever right. Cuts had to start somewhere and, they were pretty offensive to some. I'd bet there are a lot more cuts coming but, unless we "just print more money," we'll wind up in the same hole as CA or, Michigan soon.

Louisiana prolly has politicians doin' it every day.

I find it odd y'all approve of cutting jobs for our in-state workin brethren but don't mention cutting wasteful spending, i.e. Louisiana Purchase cards. Y'all don't mind screwing the makers but don't wanna mess wit the takers?????

That one has already been beat to death a million times. ;)

who makes these numbers up?? Because I never in my life was asked about a approval rating for anyone

Oh yea I forgot, we can't offend anybody. JUSTICE FOR TRAYVON

:confused:

You called?

Jindal is just implementing the National Republican agenda into the state with great success with the help from the Legislature. For this, his approval rating has dropped, even below Obama's. Just goes to show you that not even Republicans like the National Republican agenda when it is indeed put into effect and forced down their throat. Now he is trying to rig a Congressional Election in the 5th Congressional District. This guy is unreal, and he is trying to win the Presidential nomination of the Republican Party in 2016. Republicans better wake up.

This is exactly the problem. I walk through the hospital here and see people standing in line to get "free care" while the employee that used to serve them got canned because of it.

Ya know, W, come to think of it...neither have I.

FYI, I am not the one that "makes these numbers up", but, there is such a thing as an approval rating .

Do you approve of the job Govenor Bobby Jindal has done over the last 6 months?


















There, someone asked you.

Thank you. Jesus

ding ding ding!


We are 'entitled' to that money:eek:

If this is the Rodney Alexander seat, then yes there is some shady stuff going on right now:eek: Dude resigns, then Jindal gives him a job:shaking:

Jindal is just another Louisiana politician is all, he started out with good intentions but fell in with the good ol boys and thats it.

Will vote for him in 2016 though if he gets the nomination and Rand Paul or Christie doesn't:rotfl:

Much of that money comes from the Feds. That said, it infuriates me every time I see $30 worth of chips and drinks bought on it at a gas station!:pissed:

My wife was offered vending machines that take Louisiana Purchase cards and she absolutely turned them down. She said, "I already bought those snacks one time...why would I do it again?" :eek: That's my girl!!

Chris Christie? Are you ****in kiddin me??? That answers a lot of questions.

That is impressive! Kudos to your lady!;)

IF Christie or Rand Paul doesn't get the nomination is what I said;) I didn't say I would vote for Christie over Jindal, I just think Christie has a better shot at getting the Republican nomination than Jindal.

Jindal had a shot at getting some headway a few years ago when he gave the speech after the State of the Union Address and he dropped that ball, looked like a bumbling idiot

Many of the reviews on his speech were impressive. What he lacked was "charisma" and, "spunk" which is what seems to sell people on a president nowadays. Too many people in our country are looking for an entertainer more than a leader.:shaking:

Doesn't matter who you vote for. Nothing is gonna change until there is an all out war against the govt. No matter who gets in, its gonna be the same. Just listen to Dan Carlin's common sense podcasts and you'll understand

Sadly the anarchist view point is the one which history supports as being the only way things ever change. :(

Dan Carlin is the man. That dude can put you right in the middle of a story like you were right there. Wrath of the Khans was awesome.
