Hypocrisy Alert: Bobby Jindal demands Federal Government Help for Oil Spill!
Wow, these idiots complain about big government and government take over of everything! And now this fool is asking the Federal Government to help with the oil spill! And down the road he will complain about how intrusive the government is in his states business.
What a joke this guy is!

Governor Jindal spoke with Secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano this evening to request additional resources from the federal government as the state prepares for the potential impact of the oil spill.

1. He should be made to make that request publicly and give a footnote about
how government DOES come to our aid when needed. Under Obama, anyway.

These people have no shame, so this shouldn't be hard for him to do.

3. He should be made to make that request publicly while dressed as a clown
And recant every negative statement he has ever made "big government", accepting stimulus money, the "Democrat party", and our President, while Reid and Pelosi throw pies at him.

The test of whether or not he REALLY has no shame.

5. I'm sorry Piyish. Last time we tried to help your state, we were thanked
with a bunch of lies about how the feds wouldn't let the locals rescue people. Take a big gob of oil and shove it up your ass.

6. Fuck you, Bobby. You and the people who support you can stick it up your ass
Edited on Thu Apr-29-10 06:22 PM by zulchzulu
I lived in New Orleans for several years and basically left when David Duke was running for Senate and people I worked with supported him... this is at WWL-TV.

So Bobby, who questioned volcano eruption funding and called Obama a socialist and the government as evil, can have a little taste of his stupidity. It's time to EXPOSE these fucking assholes who rant against the government but whine when it's their turn to get support.

Eat shit, Bobby... and all the fucking Teatard Superstionalistas that support you.

The only way you should get federal help is if you publicly apologize for BEING A REPUBLICAN. Then, we'll talk.

Some Jindal quotes:

"We are loyal to the United States, but we don't have to be loyal to every policy," he stated. "We can't allow policies like those of European socialism."

"The strength of America is not found in our government."

Again, fuck you, Bobby.

7. Here's a wonderful quotation from Jindal....
"By relying on models from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, we have identified areas that are in need of additional oil containment booms."

In other words, over the years, NOAA has spent taxpayers' dollars on some boondoggle egghead research about ocean currents. Can't you just see right-wingers mocking that, just as Jindal mocked the volcano monitoring?

Now, of course, it turns out that this sort of spending is actually a good idea. Who knew?

10. He demanded AFTER the President sent dept heads, so know he can
try to use this to say he had to MAKE the president send help for the clean up. Never mind that the president said YESTERDAY he was sending the head of HLS, EPA etc to monitor because he did not trust what BP was telling him and he was RIGHT.
