Bobby Jindal Blames Anti-Discrimination Laws For 'Silent War On Religious Liberty'

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal (R) delivered a scathing attack on the Obama administration at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Library Thursday night, saying an “onslaught of lawsuits based on anti-discrimination” laws amount to a “silent war on religious liberty.”

“These days we think this diversity of belief is tolerated under our law and Constitution," Jindal said. "But that’s wrong. This diversity of belief is the foundation of our law and Constitution. America does not sustain and create faith. Faith created and sustains America.”

Jindal, a practicing Catholic raised by Hindu parents, accused President Barack Obama and "a group of like-minded elites" of eroding the rights of religious Americans by burdening devout businesses with anti-discriminatory same-sex marriage laws and federally mandated health insurance coverage.

Citing a lawsuit filed by the Christian owner of crafts retailer Hobby Lobby challenging the Affordable Care Act’s employee contraception mandate, Jindal argued that "the instant you start a business, you lose" your First Amendment rights.

2. Gee Bobby, pander much? Oh wait, that's right this is a giant distraction so Republican voters won't

pay attention while you and your ilk rob them blind and allow the corporations to increase their death grip on the American economy.

3. Bobby Jindal should call out for the right of muslims to build more mosques.

"religious liberty"
"diversity of belief"
His voters will LOVE this stalwart defender of religion.

4. Jindal has jumped in with the crazies, don't have anything to put on the platform so

He apparently thinks he will be running against Obama in 2016. Nothing from a nothing and you get nothing.

7. My guess is that Jindal smells blood in the water

Look at the timing...right around the time "Presidential Hoopeful Chris Christie" gifted us with BridgeGate, an otherwise silent and low-key Jindal is getting his snout into the news on a regular basis. He'll talk about anything as long as someone will print it.

5. What he really wants to say is

eff you non-right wing fundamentalists - do as we say, not as we do.

As for religion and Christianity in America these are now just political tools and to heck with what they should stand for.

6. I wish we had freedom from idiocy

I've really had it putting up with Republican morons
