Jindal is clearly a man of conviction. He just isn’t sure what it is today.
I want his kids to be taught about “other theories” too, so that when our kids are applying to the same schools and jobs as his kids, it’s no contest.
“The reality is I’m not an evolutionary biologist,” the Republican governor and possible 2016 presidential hopeful told reporters at a breakfast hosted by the Christian Science Monitor.
The reality is that he doesn’t want to listen to biologists either who long ago decided that evolution was the best explanation for how things got this way. Who wants to listen to someone who won’t listen to experts?
Notice they had to clip two mics onto his tie, since you never know which side of his mouth he’ll be talking out of.
No one told him that this question would be on the quiz.
I think local school districts should make decisions about what should be taught in their classroom. I want my kids to be exposed to the best science, the best critical thinking…
Those two goals do not go hand in hand. You can’t leave what is the best science up to the local school districts.
Unfortunately, there’s an easy answer: “Republicans.”
Well, he certainly hasn’t evolved!
Painfully locked between two worlds. This shooting star flamed out. Now just a burnt out black hole.
The reality is that Jindal not an evolutionary biologist just a greasy little fuckweasel.

Does this really work? For a Republican to just squeal “no I’m not, you are!” when the job gets hard?
I could respect Republicans for having different opinions, if they would at least hold their leaders to some minimal, “post-elementary school” standards of conduct.
You know who else has a problem with the teaching of evolution?
Maybe Jindel should team up with ISIS’s education committee.
Local school districts should be able to opt out of fact-based teaching altogether. Let them teach nothing but unicorns, leprechauns and Jesus because freedom, right?
“What, Me Worry” - Alfred E. Jindal
He denied it three times. I think that means something.
I think local schools should make the decision [insert masterful pause here] not to violate the First Amendment by teaching that bogus religion-based “other theories” creationism crap that’s been repeatedly struck down. Jindal, it goes without saying, is a mealy-mouthed liar and the dinosaurs will come back before he’s elected president, so why he sells his soul and insults his own intelligence this way is a bit of a mystery.
…and the Good Lord did looketh upon these wicked liars and their calumnies and in his just wrath did SMITE their keyboards, caps locks, and shift buttons so that all may know they who maketh deceit, and sweareth falsely.
Word brother! Because if man didn’t walk with dinosaur how would we even know that dinosaurs existed? You sure as heck can’t trust the fossils, which are known to have personally been placed there by Satan. The fact is, some people have a very long memory–like several thousand years–and they remember the dinosaurs before God wiped them out in the flood (since they couldn’t fit in the Arc de Triomphe).
