People are being mean to lil bobby jindal down in Louisiana
jindal wants to be governor of Louisiana (he's congressman now.) He's all upset and OUTRAGED about an ad democrats are running using his words. The teammate of george bush, karl rove, rush limbaugh, ann coulter, ted haggard, mark foley, sean hannity is upset that someone made a disparaging campaign ad against him (USING HIS OWN WORDS.)

http://www.nola.com/news/t-p/index.ssf?/base/news-5/11877622919270.xml&coll=1&thispage=1

The TV ad has a lady saying "he has referred to protestant religions as scandalous, depraved, selfish and heretical." jindal converted to catholicism after being raised by hindu parents.

Poor widl bobby says those words were taken "out of context." Its such a shame the crap republicans must go through to get elected.

A democratic spokesman said THIS IS JUST ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF BOBBY'S PATTERN OF TELLING ONE SIDE OF THE STORY, THE ONE HE WANTS VOTERS TO HEAR."

Poor lil bobby!!

By Cindy Chang

The welcome table at a Bobby Jindal campaign event in Mandeville on Monday carried several varieties of bumper stickers, among them "Sportsmen for Jindal," the wishful-thinking "Democrats for Jindal," and "Farm Team for Jindal" in John Deere green-and-yellow.

There wasn't a controversial purple-and-gold, black-and-gold, or olive-and-blue sticker in sight -- that is, until one began mingling with the faithful Republicans eagerly awaiting a stump speech from their Next Great Hope for the Governor's Mansion.

Bill Dobson of Mandeville pulled a handful of the disputed bumper stickers from underneath his shirt, spanning the full range of Louisiana fan obsessions: "Tigers for Jindal," "Saints for Jindal," "Green Wave for Jindal." He gave two of the Tulane stickers to Mandeville Mayor Eddie Price, a Tulane graduate whose father was an All-American running back at the school.

...snip...

The bumper stickers recently became a hot topic after LSU officials objected to the use of the school's color scheme and nickname to promote Jindal's political campaign. The New Orleans Saints and Tulane University also took issue with the use of their respective colors and nicknames, and the Jindal camp agreed to halt distribution of all three bumper stickers

BOSS: Why do conservative white folks in LA support a Indian-American (gasp!) former Hindu? The very same folks seem to be the ones all upset about Barak Obama's middle name (Hussein) and the fact that he lived in a Muslim country when he was a child and all upset about the Muslim congressman who took his oath of office on the Koran? Is it simply because he's a conservative Republican? Louisiana politics can be mighty strange.

edit: Edit to read former Hindu not former Indian-American.

2. Now now CB, you're not supposed to notice their blatant hypocrisy!
It simply isn't good manners to the pathetic morans of LA to point out that they are the biggest hypocrites on earth. Well I declare!

4. It is a total mystery to me
He's wait out in front in the polls. Walter Boasso (democrat, yet he just recently switched parties because the republican state party thought jindal was the only candidate in the race) of St Bernard Parish is running some hard hitting ads against jindal as well tying him to bush (a mistake in Louisiana?) and pointing out his voting record as a lack of support for the troops and veterans.

I've never liked that lil slimeball "I'm not a career politician" jindal. He's been in politics all his life and oh so holier then thou. Maybe blanco will jump into the fray before its all over.

Thank God I got Louisiana politics to keep up with cause Mississippi politics is incredibly boring.

3. Isn't he hiding his thumbs.....
you know the purple thumb must be in gloves. And he is always hiding the yellow streak down his back. The one all the republicans support.
