JindalWatch® Ping
If you ask me, these were about the two dumbest ways Jindal could have started out his term as governor.
Even I, as someone who isn’t at all opposed to approaching several different views on man’s origin, am a bit leary of the intentions of some of these intelligent design curriculums. I wouldn’t so much oppose this as wish Jindal had done it in the middle of his term. As such, I think he’s sent the wrong vibe in several directions.
This is the kind of move I’d expect from Huckabee—not the rising star of the Republican party.
So he is on board with the Lying for God Movement? So what?
I skip right over the debate and state clearly that the Federal Government has no business in education. The quicker American children get out of these indoctrination centers, the better off we are all going to be.
In regard to Jindal; I don’t see either the pay raise or this bill as a big deal. The whole evolution argument has grown old with me. In the end it is a worthless theory and how much of it is right or wrong makes no real difference that I was ever able to discern. I am sure there are others who would beg to differ, but I am speaking from a purely personal perspective. Knowing or not knowing the theory is all the same to me.
Legislators can either be paid by salary, or else they will assuredly find a way to pay themselves by bribery and corruption.
The proposed salary that Governor Jindal promised to sign into law, $70,000 per year, does not seem excessive to me. Poor Bobby Jindal is now probably wondering why he bothered to run for Governor of such a place.
Wow, I guess $16,800/year is considered good pay for a state legislator in LA? What's that, $8.00 an hour? I made more than that 30 years ago as a part time cook! Yeah, RECALL THE IDIOT! Let's get some real (DEMOCRAT) leadership in there!
Don't Hate Bobby Bro!
I guess we can disqualify Bobby Jindal from the presidency, having now discovered he flaws. I mean that worked so well this time around. I guess we might as well start making the signs:
Susan Collins 2016
As we get the worst candidate when we nitpick everybody else to death.
BTW, the ID bill passed by an overwhelming margin in both houses and was quite reasonable.
Signing the Intelligent Design bill cost him most of his political capital. Pandering to the anti-intellectual wing of the conservative movement has always been a non-starter.
