Sounds like you have a personal problem.
If you wish, campaign for the corrupt clowns whom Jindal replaced next election.
I think this is just silly. To suggest a stalwart conservative Bobby Jindal is a false prophet because of a few steps out of the appropriate lock-step is ridiculous.
People forget that Ronald Reagan had his unorthodoxies, too. Until he was middle aged Reagan was a New Deal Democrat and during his presidency he never did more than give lip-service to the pro-life movement (witness the Sandra Day O’Connor appointment).
There is no “perfect” elected official or politician. Bobby Jindal is conservative on what rpobably amounts to something like 95% of the issues. He’s a far cry from a John McCain-wannabe.
Check the signup date.
Even John McCain is conservative compared to Barack Hussein Obama. Everything is relative.
By all means, let’s return back to the good-old days of Governor Blanco (cue Disney birds chirping and animals frolicking and laughing together)
Is that ozone...sniff sniff....
Yes, by all means, throw Jindal under the bus. I mean, after all, he’s had SIX WHOLE MONTHS to accomplish EVERYTHING you want! Off with his head NOW!
How Rush fits into this...that part of your newbie screed is incomprehensible.
Hey lookee here smart ass, what Rush said in his comments about Jindal was that Jindal might be the next Ronald Reagan “if he doesn’t change”, so obviously (as you view it) Jindal changed, so don’t blame Rush, blame your own infantile, doe-eyed belief that Jindal (or ANY elected official) will be flawless, never erring, and always rising to the golden ‘Reagan Standard’.
You signed up yesterday just to post this drivel?
IBTZ, INDEED!
Welcome to Free Republic, now GTF outta here.
Wow, since June 20th 2008.
I wonder, could it be that the moonbats are worried about Jindal as a future GOP candidate and are trying to torpedo his career early?
You know the moonbats, gotta keep the minorities on the plantation.
Could be could be could be NOT is.
You need to calm down and get a life.
When I began entering into the give and take of legislative bargaining in Sacramento, a lot of the most radical conservatives who had supported me during the election didn't like it.
"Compromise" was a dirty word to them and they wouldn't face the fact that we couldn't get all of what we wanted today. They wanted all or nothing and they wanted it all at once. If you don't get it all, some said, don't take anything.
I'd learned while negotiating union contracts that you seldom got everything you asked for. And I agreed with FDR, who said in 1933: 'I have no expectations of making a hit every time I come to bat. What I seek is the highest possible batting average.'
If you got seventy-five or eighty percent of what you were asking for, I say, you take it and fight for the rest later, and that's what I told these radical conservatives who never got used to it.
Or, as Mick Jagger sang: You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you might find, you get what you need.
Arizona conservatives have tried to tell them about RINO McCain but nobody listens until it’s too late.
A handsome kitty. Damned if I’d say otherwise to his face.
Mr. Robinson is pretty hard-headed, but it is his site. Change will come, but it must be done slowly. Slowly we have to convert more members to our kinder, gentler "progressive" beliefs.
Some times after reading for a length of time on this site, we progressives just need a karmic hug. So if you feel frustrated, join us in a hug at our alternate site.
