Video: Jindal Glad Steele Apologized to Rush
newsmax ^ | Today

Posted on 03/03/2009 3:03:23 PM PST by jessduntno

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal called Rush Limbaugh an important leader of the conservative movement Monday night and said he was glad that Republican Party Chairman Michael Steele had apologized for describing Limbaugh’s show as “ugly” and ‘incendiary.” But he also described Steele as a “breath of fresh air” for the Republican Party.

Appearing on CNN’s “Larry King” show, Jindal explained that he agrees with Limbaugh’s opinion that President Barack Obama’s massive deficit spending programs are not good for the country.

The transcript:

King: All right, governor, here was Rush Limbaugh at this weekend's CPAC Conference. Watch.

Rush Limbaugh: What is so strange about being honest and saying I want Barack Obama to fail if his mission is to restructure and reform this country so that capitalism and individual liberty are not its foundation? Why would I want that to succeed?

King: Governor, do you think people are thinking about capitalism now or are they thinking about problems?

Jindal: Look, clearly, the American people are worried about paying their mortgages, keeping their jobs and paying their health care bills. I think Rush is a great leader for conservatives. I think he articulates what a lot of people are concerned about.

King: Do you want him [Obama] to fail?

Jindal: I don't want those policies to be adopted. I want my country to succeed, but I don't want policies to be adopted.

King: What if the policies work?

Jindal: Well, again...

King: What if they work?

KEYWORDS:
Jindal: This is where we have a fundamental disagreement. I don't think it's going work ... to spend in excess of our revenues. I want my country to succeed. But what I worry about is that simply spending money on new programs. Look at every new bailout. You talked about the auto bailouts. Then you had the fourth, I think it's the fourth -- it's hard to keep track -- AIG bailout today. It seems like every time you turn around, there's another trillion dollar plan.

Mr. Steele is not ready for prime time.

Some wimpy rat called conservatives “Nazis,” and Steele doesn’t even have a rapid response team set up to reply.

The conservative bus left two weeks ago and he hasn’t a clue where to buy a ticket. Steele is in way over his head and needs to be dumped - now. I’m sure there’s a desk in the back where he can stuff envelopes asking for cash.

If we absolutely, postively must have a black fellow as RNC spokesman, I’m sure we can round one up better than Mr. Steele.

What if they DON'T, Mr. King?? Are you willing to just stand by and watch the U.S. economy go straight into the crapper in the hopes that a bunch of utopian socialist programs will actually work when none has worked before??

Reply to King: What if it works? What if it doesn’t work, Larry? What do we tell our children and grandchildren? Sorry, kids it didn’t work. We elected a man with no experience in anything other than community organizing and he was way over his head. But he was black and it was all very historic so pay your taxes and be patriotic. Larry, tell me one time socialism did not fail and you will have your answer.

Bravo to you! You couln’t have said it better! The Left will set their traps and Steele will step into them. So far he has not shown us that he is equipped to get out of them without Rush Limbaugh's and Jindal’s help.

I wonder if Steele's wife buttons up his shirt for him?

We have Jesse Lee Peterson, president of BOND. The man is a bull in a liberal China shop. He’s chewed up the racist Jesse Jackson and spit out pieces so small that Jackson is still going thru the shredded molecules with a tweezer looking for his balls.

But I guarantee you, the bed-wetting, simpering RINOs don’t have the guts to hire him. They might lose their high-chair at the liberal doggy scrap bowl.

King: If the sky was brown, would you think it was pretty.

Avg Person: Ah Larry, the sky is blue and I like it blue, I think blue is pretty...

King: Putting aside the fact that the sky is blue, if it was brown, would you want it to be pretty?

Avg Person: I don't think a brown sky is possible

King: What if the sky was brown tomorrow and everyone thought is was pretty, would you want it to be pretty?

Avg Person: I'm not sure the point of your question?

King: My point is sir, you are not open to pretty brown skies

Avg Person: But a brown sky is impossible

King: My point exactly

Avg Person: Exactly what?

King: That you don't like brown skies

Avg Person: Look Brown skies don't exist and if they did, the earth would be destroyed

King: So your not open to the possibility of Brown Skies because you believe the earth would be destroyed?

Avg Person: Yes

King: Isn't that attitude not giving brown skies a chance to succeed?

Avg Person: No, because brown skies don't work, never have worked and will never work

King: Isn't that closed minded?

Avg Person: If I say yes can we move on to another line of questioning?

King: Yes

Avg Person: Yes

King: What would have happen in WWII, if Superman's ship would have landed in Germany?

Avg Person: Can we go back to talking about the sky?

That was one of the greatest little examples of MSM idiocy I have seen in a long time. Great Job.
