Jindal defends those who want Obama to fail



By Mark Preston
CNN Political Editor


WASHINGTON (CNN) -- -- It's OK for Republicans to want President Obama to fail if they think he's jeopardizing the country, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal told members of his political party Tuesday night.
http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2009/POLITICS/03/25/jindal.defense.obama/art.bobby.jindal.gi.jpgGov. Bobby Jindal is offering a spirited defense of Republicans who say they want President Obama to fail.


http://i.cdn.turner.com/cnn/.element/img/2.0/mosaic/base_skins/baseplate/corner_wire_BL.gif


Jindal described the premise of the question -- "Do you want the president to fail?" -- as the "latest gotcha game" being perpetrated by Democrats against Republicans.
"Make no mistake: Anything other than an immediate and compliant, 'Why no sir, I don't want the president to fail,' is treated as some sort of act of treason, civil disobedience or political obstructionism," Jindal said at a political fundraiser attended by 1,200 people. "This is political correctness run amok."
Since conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh said that he hoped that Obama (http://topics.edition.cnn.com/topics/barack_obama) would fail, Republicans have been pressed by Democrats and the media about Limbaugh's comments.
Jindal, a potential 2012 presidential candidate, told the Republican audience he would "not be brow beaten on this, and I will not kowtow to their correctness."
"My answer to the question is very simple: 'Do you want the president to fail?' It depends on what he is trying to do."
Jindal, who served two terms in the U.S. House, returned to Washington to help his former colleagues raise more than $6 million for the 2010 midterm elections. And he likely picked up important political chits, should he decide to run for president.
So far, Jindal has sidestepped questions about 2012. But on Tuesday he seemed to be laying the groundwork in case he eventually decides the political climate is right. A video of favorable back-to-back TV reports about Jindal preceded his introduction to the audience. And Jindal used his remarks to deep-pocketed Republican donors to emphasize his vision for how the Grand Old Party can get back on track.
He made a point to criticize Obama and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for a "spending spree" that he said "is costing the taxpayers more than the Iraq war, more than the Vietnam War, and, near and dear to my heart, even more than the Louisiana Purchase."
Jindal (http://topics.edition.cnn.com/topics/bobby_jindal) singled out House Republicans for standing up to Obama and helping the GOP return to its conservative roots.

What double standard?

What double standard?

Everyone at this site and on FOX news said either you support Bush or you support the terrorist and that will make you Un-American.


Now If you don't support Obama? your just American.

It'll be like this till the end of time.

If the other guy made it in, he'd get the same shit.

Don't bother trying to explain the right's hypocrisy because only the left in the country fall into that category. While we are on the subject of Fox News they have been whoring the tea parties around the country the last few days. Today the morning show wanted to see what Americans 'think' of Obama's proposals. So where did they go? The tea parties. These meetings are also known as the hannity/Rush/levin etc. /backslapping / Dem bashing get togethers.

I don't recall lead ins like that when crowds of 5 times the size of the tea parties staged anti-bush/war rallies. They were looney according to Fox news..

No hypocrisy here..just move along.

Your point? So? People who voted for Obama are not real Americans. We real Americans get to suffer through this French-style confiscatory socialism while the freeloaders party.

Sigh... if only we had the balls of a country like Chile... and a real leader like Pinochet to set things right.

Foreigners like you who deign to lecture us about our politics could really use a nice electric shock to the testicles.

Are you so narrow minded? This is the image many europeans have of much americans, and that image is only increasing because of people like you.

Oh nooooooooo... the Europeans will think baaaaaaadly of us. Because, you know, when I wake up in the morning, the first thing I'm concerned about is what some European is going to think of me. When I'm tying up a prisoner, I loosen those knots just a little because in my head I know there's some Frog somewhere in the world who thinks I'm narrow-minded.

I would waterboard you in a second and enjoy it. I'd enjoy it even more if I could take the cellophane off.

I did great under Bush. The "damage" was to people like you. You don't matter. The country exists for the benefit of the powerful. You are a pawn.

[Bukefal]

Well go ahead with this image producing, you are the one who looks like a fool and complete idiot, not us :)

You are no american.

And let me ask you, you cant even be one, since your blood probably comes from europe. We gave you politics, handle it wise.

I'm smart enough to understand that the key to success is convincing everyone else that they need to live by the rules, while I do whatever I feel like doing. Have you figured that out yet?

I'm one of the few who really understands what 'American' is. A true American is one who follows his own enlightened self-interest. I'm successful. My cohorts are successful. Like I give a rat's ass about the little people.

And I'm descended from people who were smart enough to figure out that if they left Europe, they could be the new aristocracy somewhere else.

[Bukefal]

Yeah, because we were smart enough to see that aristocracy is not such a wonderful thing and you were shit in europe. Thats going hand in hand with repression of citizens and fascism. You call it smart, I call it retarded.

But well, im afraid its too late for people like you. Keep living in your own little world ;)

Repression of citizens and fascism are awesome. If not for that rat bastard FDR we could have had it in America.

[mogrovejo]

You mean the same FDR who interned thousands of Americans in concentration camps because of the colour of their skin?

FDR was America's best hope of having a fascist regime. He almost succeeded.

So, you do agree with Jindal, right?

What kind of ridicilous tautology is this? Unbeleivable if this kind of crap really qualifies as an answer.

[ChumpDumper]

I want Jindal to fail.

[CosmicCowboy]

LOL

So do I. Jindal has less charisma than even McCain...At least McCain had the war hero thing going for him...Jindal looks like he should just shut up and get back behind the counter at the 7-11.

[ChumpDumper]

I don't care about his looks -- his condescending Fred Rogers delivery in that Republican response speech has made his candidacy stillborn. If he and Palin are the best they got, it looks like four more years of Obama.

[baseline bum]

Jindal looks like he should just shut up and get back behind the counter at the 7-11.

Which is why he'll never get elected. So it's Romney or Pitbull in 2012? Well, really Pitbull I guess, because no one in the South is going to vote for a Mormon either.

I'm about as excited with the Republicans chances in '12 as I will be with the Spurs chances when Duncan retires. Strictly from winning the election standpoint Republicans best bet will be if Obama just keeps being Obama and we have hyperinflation in 4 years....of course by then the country will be well and truly fucked and it probably won't matter which party is in power.

[LnGrrrR]

Uhm.. what's the point of this?

Do you have so much rage that it makes you feel better to belittle someone?

Welcome to the forum, Mr. Vice President.

[sook]

the whole irony of this situation is that if Obama fails so does the country. If the bailouts etc don't work we are fucked.

I don't understand why partisanship comes before country for these idiotic fuckers.

Well, there are those of us who believe that if Obama succeeds, America fails.

It's not the bailouts...I opposed them when Bush was president.

It's the socialist agenda and Obama's apparent incomprehension of what a 12 Trillion dollar debt, to achieve that agenda, will do to this country. Hell, don't even mention how far it will carry us from our founding principles of individual liberty.

A President's success or failure doesn't necessarily correlate to a nation's success or failure.

Did you do it publicly?

Agreed. I would say president Obama will succeed if the policies he wants to implement fail to take place!

[Yonivore]

Did you do it publicly?
I believe I did. Although, I don't do much public speaking...anymore.

[mogrovejo]

Are people serious about this? I mean, what's exactly the point of having an opposition if not trying to prevent the ruling party to impose their wills and measures? And, I mean, if Obama supports a bill supporting the building of a nuclear waste deposit in the Yosemite Park, wouldn't people want him to fail? Countries were everybody wants the government to succeed and implement their policies are called "totalitarian regimes".

Jindal is absolutely right (as is Rush Limbaugh). Pretty amazing that the democrats spend the last 8 years accusing others of falsely questioning their patriotism and now engage in this kind of nonsense. Hypocrisy at its best.

[TDMVPDPOY]

well america has voted for a color president,

now the ppl who have failed in the election want him to fail....

hey this shit happens everywhere around the world, the opposition will usually stir negative shit for bad publicity...hence when they were in govt they didnt do shit all.

[Don Quixote]

Which is why he'll never get elected. So it's Romney or Pitbull in 2012? Well, really Pitbull I guess, because no one in the South is going to vote for a Mormon either.

Hmm. You might be right about Romney. And some conservatives are not convinced of his bona fides either -- is he really a conservative? That will have to be worked out by then. Palin and Jindal are two rising stars in the GOP and have alot to offer. Jindal has the intellectual chops to go up against the Pres., and unlike Obama, has an actual record of executive or legislative achievement, and doesn't need a teleprompter to speak to his wife. Palin, too, is smarter than the media portrays her, and is, like most Americans, rightly skeptical of these great big solutions that govt always tries on us. And she is about the farthest thing from a Beltway insider as we're likely to see. I like her -- she is exactly what the American political landscape needs.

Any of them will have to overcome (1) a hostile media, and (2) the Obama campaign. Often, these are one and the same. Obama ran a simply brilliant campaign last year, told the people what they wanted to hear, let an inferior candidate beat himself, and focused on peripheral things that don't really matter that much (his demeanor, his race, his youth, his speaking ability, etc.). And he raised tons of $$. I expect Team Obama to be formidable in 2012 as well.

[ChumpDumper]

Jindal?

Palin?

That's seriously all you got?

Dark days for board Republicans.

[WEP key]

I believe I did. Although, I don't do much public speaking...anymore.

[Extra Stout]

And she is about the farthest thing from a Beltway insider as we're likely to see. I like her -- she is exactly what the American political landscape needs.
The American political landscape needs somebody even more incurious about the world than George W. Bush was? Seriously?

"Smarter than the media portrays her?" That's funny, I don't remember history playing out that way. I remember members of the media asking her simple, straightforward questions that most people with a college education could answer, and then looking astonished when she couldn't answer them. I remember asking similar questions of people who don't give a flip about politics, economics, or anything else that goes on in the world outside of their narrow circle, and getting better answers than Governor Palin could give. Maybe she's witty and clever and has good political instincts or whatever, but the only way she could know any less about the issues that a President has to deal with would be if she were a plant, or a sponge, or some kind of inanimate object.

When and why did lack of salient knowledge about anything become a prerequisite to a viable Republican candidacy? It's as though in the highly unlikely course of events that Gov. Palin were to spend the next few years educating herself on the issues, it would actually hurt her chances.

Once upon a time I thought that conservatism was about a set of principles such as individual liberty, empowering families, smaller government, lower taxes, pay-as-you-go, that were applied to real-world problems. Now it seems that the state of the Republican Party is that it, and the people to whom it appeals, have no answers in the real world, so they construct a make-believe reality in which their ideology makes sense. So the more out-of-touch a potential candidate is with objective reality, the better. Cue Sarah Palin.

We've got a President who thinks that the definition of fiscal responsibility is to tell the American people up front about his plans to bankrupt the country, and the Republican response is to bat their eyes at somebody who probably thinks that a credit default swap is when you start using the MasterCard instead of the Visa.

There is no hope. Just blow up the country and let the wars begin.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

It's like
hi. My name is Bobby. But it really isn't.
