I guess when the Palin bashers have a little free time, the go after Jindal.

Louisana’s last budget was balanced but it was with “tricks”? I can tell you right now I have a lot more faith in Bobby Jindal than I do Tom Roberson (who obviously writes his own bio line).

He seemed to handle the oil spill well, standing up to Obama on stupid federal rules, but in general he seems wishy-washy and, as the article states: timid.

He’s definitely not my pick.

My list is short:

Palin
Christie
DeMint
Pence

There may be others, but those are the only 4 that strike me as believable right now and Christie, DeMint and Pence all have their problems (DeMint mainly that he seems to genuinely not be interested).

Which pretty much leaves Palin.

But definitely not Jindal. I don’t see myself supporting Jindal unless he somehow actually got the nomination... which I don’t see him getting.

The RINOS have figured out that all they have to do is pretend to be conservatives, just like Romney. Rhetoric is not what makes a conservative, actions do. I’ll take Bachman over Palin any day. Too many people on this site have hormonal attractions to their candidates. That’s no better than t5he retards that voted for the oxygen thief in the white house Obimbo.

Jindal, Palin, Christie ... they ALL scare the heck out of the left.

They want to see McCain running again (or someone like him) and will be voting in the Republican Primaries AGAIN to try and make that happen (again).

Stand up against them.
They are fewer and CAN be beaten.

Expose the left for what they are.

Ever notice that so many who rag on Jindal, Palin, Rand Paul, Christine O’Donnell, et. al., call themselves “conservatives”—??

I think it’s the latest ploy to make sure some sure-fire loser like Mitt Romney ends up nominated.

Louisiana's last budget was balanced with numerous accounting tricks, one-time funding sources, and massive cuts to health and higher education

Why do you cut health care and higher education?

How about because that is where the money is. In tough times I don't starve my kids while I make the payments on my Lamborghini - well upon second thought.

Let’s just save everyone the trouble and make a list of the top ten potential Republican presidental candidates and have an associated “truth file” so we can torpedo each and every one of them before the campaign even starts.

Hooray for Obama in 2012!

During Jindal's administration, Louisiana has added over 3,100 new employees, and its budget has increased from $12 billion in 2008 to $24 billion in 2010.

I don't know all the details, but on its face that doesn't look like fiscal reponsibility to me....

What is going on?

I keep reading articles by people who are supposedly conservatives knocking down potential conservative Presidential candidates one-by-one.

This morning there is no shortage of Sarah Palin criticism. I heard Newt Gingrich slammed this morning. Now Bobby Jindahl.

What gives? I didn’t think I was reading a left wing forum here.

A Thanksgiving Message to All 57 States
.by Sarah Palin on Thursday, November 25, 2010 at 5:46pm.My fellow Americans in all 57 states, the time has changed for come. With our country founded more than 20 centuries ago, we have much to celebrate – from the FBI’s 100 days to the reforms that bring greater inefficiencies to our health care system. We know that countries like Europe are willing to stand with us in our fight to halt the rise of privacy, and Israel is a strong friend of Israel’s. And let’s face it, everybody knows that it makes no sense that you send a kid to the emergency room for a treatable illness like asthma and they end up taking up a hospital bed. It costs, when, if you, they just gave, you gave them treatment early, and they got some treatment, and ah, a breathalyzer, or an inhalator. I mean, not a breathalyzer, ah, I don’t know what the term is in Austrian for that…

Of course, the paragraph above is based on a series of misstatements and verbal gaffes made by Barack Obama (I didn’t have enough time to do one for Joe Biden). YouTube links are provided just in case you doubt the accuracy of these all too human slips-of-the-tongue. If you can’t remember hearing about them, that’s because for the most part the media didn’t consider them newsworthy. I have no complaint about that. Everybody makes the occasional verbal gaffe – even news anchors.

Obviously, I would have been even more impressed if the media showed some consistency on this issue. Unfortunately, it seems they couldn’t resist the temptation to turn a simple one word slip-of-the-tongue of mine into a major political headline. The one word slip occurred yesterday during one of my seven back-to-back interviews wherein I was privileged to speak to the American public about the important, world-changing issues before us.

If the media had bothered to actually listen to all of my remarks on Glenn Beck’s radio show, they would have noticed that I refer to South Korea as our ally throughout, that I corrected myself seconds after my slip-of-the-tongue, and that I made it abundantly clear that pressure should be put on China to restrict energy exports to the North Korean regime. The media could even have done due diligence and checked my previous statements on the subject, which have always been consistent, and in fact even ahead of the curve. But why let the facts get in the way of a good story? (And for that matter, why not just make up stories out of thin air – like the totally false hard news story which has run for three days now reporting that I lobbied the producers of “Dancing with the Stars” to cast a former Senate candidate on their show. That lie is further clear proof that the media completely makes things up without doing even rudimentary fact-checking.)

“Hope springs eternal” as the poet says. Let’s hope that perhaps, just maybe, they might get it right next time. When we the people are effective in holding America’s free press accountable for responsible and truthful reporting, then we shall all have even more to be thankful for!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

- Sarah Palin

massive cuts to health and higher education. Jindal has been criticized for pushing hard decisions down the road to avoid offending anyone

I quit reading after that. So nobody was offended by massive health and higher education cuts.

“This administration is focused on treating terrorists like citizens and citizens like suspects.” — Bobby Jindal on the Glenn Beck show. Not bad.

For the 49th time Bobby Jindal is not eligible to be POTUS. He is not a natural born citizen. His mother was only in this country for 5 months at the time of his birth. She was not a naturalized citizen. He cannot be President. Pick somebody else.

However, as we've learned from the current occupant of the White House, command of statistics and the ability to explain the complicated do not necessarily indicate that one is destined to be a great leader.

When was this ever characteristic of Obama? His campaign was based on "hope" and "change" and other various feel good catch phrases like the oceans will stop rising, etc.

Good points here. Republicans that pander to the status quo are not the Republicans who will turn this country around.

There's a vicious Hate Jindal campaign being promulgated by a bitter minority.

Disgusting.
