Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal accused rival Jeb Bush on Wednesday of backing “amnesty” in the former Florida governor’s interview with msnbc’s Jose Diaz-Balart – even though Jindal’s own rhetoric on the issue sounds nearly identical.
“During a recent Spanish-language interview with Telemundo, Jeb Bush called for amnesty for those who are in our country illegally,” Jindal wrote in a fundraising email to supporters. ”I wish I could say I’m surprised. But Jeb Bush has been clear and consistent about his belief that Republicans have to be willing to ‘lose the primary to win the general.’ We just disagree about that.”
The e-mail goes on to say the government “should not and must not reward those who came to this country illegally.” ...
Here’s how Jindal laid out his views on immigration in 2013 in a detailed op-ed in the National Review:
Once the border is secure, and not before, we should provide an opportunity for those who came here illegally seeking to work for a better life to gain legal status rather quickly, if and only if they are willing to do all that is required. We should deport immediately those who engage in criminal activity.

It appears Benjy still has his job at PMSNBC. I guess you could say that Benjy is a “survivor”. LOL!
Time and PMSNBC gives free advice to the GOP voters.
Funny, the DNC never asks for advice from Mark Levin or Fox.
Sorry to see that Jindal is just as soft on the colonization of America as the candidates of The Cheap Labor Express.
It’s our country.
It’s OK for us to enforce our laws.
We just need to find and elect someone to do it.
Yep—he’s got the same amnesty position as Trump and the rest of them. They are all for it. The GOP and this 17-candidate presidential pageant are rigged. The fix is in.
They are one big team GOPE who are all for no effective immigration control. If you’re a GOPE player, you play the party game BS’ing the voters and all for the benefit of the big party donors.
Ha—I forgot about him, but you’re right!
Too bad he’s too weird in other ways to have an actual shot at the nomination.
