2. Proud to be the 1st to recommend this! Rachel is at the top of her game.

Jindal is an idiot. She didn't even mention his criticism of funding for "volcano monitoring, whatever that is."

How dumb is this guy? All you have to do is check recent news headlines to see that a volcano is about to blow in Alaska. No doubt even Sara Palin can see it out her window and would like it to be monitored!

3. Palin, Steele, Jindal: Not one white, middle-aged male among them.

They're window dressing.

8. that's for sure

15. That was the easy angle

To look past that and analyse the positions is part of what makes Rachel great.

7. "some are promising that goveren" that's what it sounded like - painful, from the way he walked in

smiling like a morgue director, to his cheesy intoning of words that one would guess he was apparently taught in CSR classes on how to handle customer complaints about cell phones or computers or whatever! He sounded so DUMB.

Goodness, the GOP is dead.

HOW EASY THIS WAS!

9. Wow Was that Linda Lingle, Gov of Hawaii on Jindels Left Shoulder?

MY GOD!

Has Satan come to the Mortal realm to start Collecting the Souls the Republicans sold to him in order to be in Power for that last 8 years?

She (Lingle) has decayed to the point of looking ancient.

Nobody ages that fast, unless they are very ill.

10. If Gilligan Jindall really believes government inherently fails, why is he on the public dime?

I never could understand these kinds of politicians. They gallivant across their states, districts or nation and preach how government has no role in anything in our lives, but these people are government employees and show no signs of getting off the public payroll.

12. it's funny that he talks about katrina.

umm... who was in charge then??? and who did this person have as the person in charge of FEMA??? soemthing about horse shows, i remember. It is laughable that the people who DOUBLED the deficit are now concerned about the deficit. It is laughable that the people that got us into this mess are concerned about wasteful spending NOW!!! give me a break. I always worry that people will believe the bs, but I sure try to hope that the quicksand we are all standing on right now is enough to get people to actually think about what these people are saying and NOT doing.... like trying to help anyone... but themselves.

17. So true and obvious! nt

11. Past the far right end of the bell curve, indeed!

Rachel is so refreshing to see and hear.

Palin, Steele and Jindal: a very sad denouement for a GOP that once ... long, long ago ... was the proud bastion of the likes of Abraham Lincoln and even for progressive ideas.

14. Jindal

put his foot so far in his mouth that the GOP is choking. Yes Bobby we agree..Republican leadership during Katrina was a failure and we sure don't want any more of that.

13. His stance on abortion is not surprising.

It has been said by some that he is a member of Opus Dei. When he was asked if he was a member, he declined to answer. No one can say for sure, since it is a secret organization. The society has members in powerful positions and are determined in imposed their policies on society. Pope John Paul II recognized this society that answerers sole to the pope. Both of his predecessors refused to do so since they considered them to be a treat to the authority of the local bishops. They are extremists and some members engage in self torture. So if his opinions seem to be extreme it may well be attributable to his membership in this strange cult that is gaining power within the Catholic Church.

16. I saw that while I was flipping around last night-that was complete and excellent
