Jindal expects to know tonight if 'Top Kill' is working
By the CNN Wire Staff
May 26, 2010 5:56 p.m. EDT
Venice, Louisiana -- Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal said he expects to know Wednesday night whether BP's "Top Kill" attempt to plug the runaway
oil well in the Gulf of Mexico is working.

"What they have told us is it will take a couple of days for it to be fully implemented, but that they should know in a matter of hours,"
he told reporters.

"We should, hopefully, know something later tonight," he said, adding that he planned to get an update from the Coast Guard as well as
from the oil giant.

Wasn't this the guy saying the federal govt. should stay out of his state
not so long ago?

9. Jindal is not doing his state any favors
His ravings only serve to alienate the powers that can help his people. He needs to just be quiet and step back.

3. Karma!
Karma is far more delicious than crow:)

This guy is getting what he begged for! And I would love it if it weren't so tragic for everyone else.

4. Wait a minute? I enjoyed Bobby Jindal's "Jimmy the Page" speech as much as anyone here ...
but did you actually LISTEN to him talking at the press conference earlier today?

Yeah yeah, he's got the tainted GOP talking points, but this guy, when push comes to shove, is COMPETENT.

No joke, he may be a more moderate republican that democrats can work with. He's no right winger = the man is very intelligent.

I'm glad he's the Governor of LA because he's mobilizing many people to do all they can to protect their fragile marshlands.

10. No, until I heard Jindal speak again today, I was convinced he was a "moran."
But there is something there that's real. He can mobilize people and think on his feet.

Hey, that's sort of depressing because he's a republican but it's wise to KNOW your enemy. :shrug:

11. Bobby must have a darned good crystal ball to know even before BP if it's working
The most recent news said that BP won't know for another 24 hours if it's working or not, and Bobby said he'll know tonight. Does he know something the rest of the world doesn't ???

12. like most Republicans....
....Jindal is schizophrenic....they have contempt for big government and love private enterprise; when the shit hit the fan, they then have contempt for private enterprise and love big government....

....just a reminder Bobby, this oil spill is a private enterprise catastrophe, a capitalist disaster, a corporate calamity....BP isn't a government run agency, BP is free market capitalism at it's best....
