Jindal to Cheney: Lay off Obama - Bobby's toast now in Freeperville

[ksoze]

His 15 minutes of fame are gone. Once again. They are butchering him in Freepervile and say he is done. I actually thought he already was after his Mr. Rogers imitation after the State of the Union.

From Politico:


Gov. Bobby Jindal (R-La.) suggested Thursday that former Vice President Dick Cheney should tone down his criticism of President Barack Obama.

Cheney has repeatedly criticized the president’s national security policy, saying recently on CNN’s “State of the Union” that Obama’s decisions “raise the risk to the American people of another attack.”

Asked to respond to Cheney’s remark during an interview ABC’s “Good Morning America,” Jindal said: “I don't think we should question President Obama's patriotism or his intentions.”

“I think Democrat or Republican, we should all agree that our current president, our former president would obviously want to do everything they could to keep us safe,” he said. “Let's give the new administration a chance. Let's not question their intentions. Let's have a real debate on their policies.”

The Republican governor praised Obama for “showing more flexibility when it comes to Iraq than maybe some of the campaign rhetoric suggested.”

“I am, quite honestly, pleasantly surprised,” he said. “That's the kind of pragmatism, listening to the commanders on the ground, I think is very important.”

Jindal did offer some criticism of the president, pointing out that it is “fine to have an honest disagreement on the policies that both administrations would choose to try to keep us safe.”

“At some point, we need to stop going overseas and apologizing, criticizing our predecessors,” he said.

He is going to get hit full force with the wild eyed ire of the Limbaugh, the Hannity and the Freepers..

He should be apologizing sometime Monday, in a big mea cupla to Rush.. EDIT: for criticizing Cheney..

12. "Bobby" was ALWAYS toast to them

He was never more than their "token".. a well-spoken "dark" face , in a sea of pasty white.. a not "black" , black guy they could claim...as long as he toed the line...but they would never really elect him to anything higher than governor...just like all the Condi-worship.. It;s all for SHOW..to try and convince the conservative christian black people who might possibly be willing to vote R..because of the "gay-thing" and the "abortion-thing"..

What republicans always forget, is that MOST people CAN hold two opposing ideas in their brains, and can weigh them and vote accordingly....Most people are not repubrobots who vote R because someone tells them to..

13. The Republican Version of Sister Souljah - Just Wait

Getting a fire baptism from Rush Limbaugh will be the Republican version of a Sister Souljah Moment going into mid-terms.

"See... I'm not so bad... Rush Limbaugh said bad stuff about me too."
