Hello! My name is Bobby!
Right now I'm the Governor of Louisiana. Governor. That's a BIG word, isn't it. It means elected leader. But I have higher aspirations. There's another big word. Aspiration. Sometimes rock stars who have drugged themselves unconscious will asperate their own vomit. But that is a different word.

If Sarah Palin and Bobby Jindahl are the future of the Republican party, they will be wandering in the desert for a LONG time.

2. Let's be thankful
I saw a picture of the Republican Congressional "leadership" at HuffPo, and it was four white guys - well, Boehner is sort of white - sitting there, looking blank. Cantor was taking notes like the suckup brownnoser that he truly is.

They haven't a clue. Not a clue. If Bobby Jindal were a white guy, he'd never have been tapped to make that speech. Palin, Jindal, Steele - the party is trying to "appeal" to all voters, but they're just a bunch of rigid, out-of-touch, pandering whores, and the whole country knows it, except for their rightwingnut base.

6. it's because they are either so dumb or think everybody else is so dumb
that they think they can just toss out somebody and it appeases a certain demographic, any token will do. Need some Hillary voters? That Palin chick will do. Need a black guy to counter Obama's blackness? Michael Steele! Hey we need somebody to counter Obama's weird name thing... Hey how about Bobby Jindal!

8. GHWBush had a great example of that:
"Need me some wimmin's votes, so it'll be prudent to pick me a pretty boy running mate"

7. And I'm a Rhodes scholar who has sold out to RW ideology.
That means I should be told to hit the roads.

10. It's NOT Bobby, it's Piyush
Why aren't they using his REAL first name?
Where did he get Bobby from Piyush anyway?

12. It is Bobby- It is the name he has used since childhood.
He has two names- He chooses to use one over the other.
