That was the weirdest entrance I've seen from a politician ever.

Not only did he have a really creepy smile, the way he shifted was just awkward. Add the, "Hi, I'm Bobby Jindal..." and it was all really surreal. It didn't matter what he said or how well he said it, after that introduction, he was toast.

He could not have come accross looking more inauthentic, insincere and disingenuous

4. "Hi. I'm Bobby Jindal. I'm here to talk to you about the stimulus."
"That's a big, funny word, isn't it? Grown-ups use that to mean something that is a big waste of money. It's like taking all the money in your daddy's wallet, and all the money in your mommy's purse, and all the money in your piggy bank, and putting it right down the toilet. Bye-bye money! Down you go!"

6. It was why Tweety let slip the "oh my god".
The whole thing was surreal from the start and then proceeded to go straight downhill.

9. If he had used a Latka Gravas voice, it couldn't have been creepier
Even if he ended his speech with "Tank you very much".

15. I was waiting for him to say "You'll be amazed with the Sham-Wow"!
seriously....that was the most pitiful delivery I've ever seen.

He practiced his speech by watching Mr.Rogers episodes...

"Won't you please...won't you please....please won't you be, my neighbor"

Hi neighbor!
