So very pleased with himself that he hit all the talking points to a crowd which ate it up.

Kind of reminds me of the 50’s and 60’s when they had midget wrestling on TV. I had more respect for the midgets though, and I am certain the midgets had more principles and knowledge of world events than either Paul or Jindal

Whereas in your case, being a flaming fucking lunatic only makes you that much more qualified to the rwnj crowd.

Translation of Jindal: “If us hawks had not given them arms, what would our military do without being able to go to war against them, fight them and perhaps get wounded or killed?!”

The sad thing is, before this is all over, he is going to be out crazied by someone. Most likely several someones.

With the new debate participation rules in play now, all of the second tier candidates are going to go full on crazy in order to garner some national press attention, which of course forces rest of the 2nd tiers to go even crazier in a race to the asylum.

The good news is that these changes will result in abandoning of building infrastructure for ground games in most of the early states (with the resultant lack of expertise and experience when they finally start to do so ahead of the general once the nomination is mostly locked up), as they toss millions at national ads. Meanwhile Hillary seems to be planning on focusing big on ground game organization.

How Jindal finds the time for all his speechifying is a puzzle. It’s very time consuming raising a brood of pet dinosaurs. Training them to use the litter box is a daunting proposition all on its own.

–Former Florida governor Jeb Bush ®, remarks during a business rountable in Portsmouth, N.H., May 20, 2015

WaPo today: “Both statements are false and worthy of Four Pinocchios.”

It’s like a hockey fight. A lot of commotion, noise and banging into the boards, but they’re so padded with BS that no one is hurt and they can replay the same act the next time they hear a ref blow the whistle.

Starting off Wednesday with laughter, always good.

Jindal wouldn’t even be able win his home state in the general election.

Piyush Posh

I’m not a fan of any GOP clown car participant, but my hearty thanks goes out to Rand Paul for exposing these rifts in the GOP. Let them now all take sides, spout hypotheticals and get themselves all worked up and hyperbolic. Then we can all see them for who they are.

“It’s one thing for Senator Paul to take an outlandish position as a Senator at Washington cocktail parties, but being Commander-in-Chief is an entirely different job,” Jindal’s statement continued. "We should all be clear that evil and Radical Islam are at fault for the rise of ISIS, and President BUSH and DICK CHENEY CREATED THE FERTILE GROUND FOR THE GROWTH OF ISIS THROUGH THEIR ILLEGAL INVASION OF IRAQ.

The only thing that isn’t side-splittingly hilarious about the 19-way Republican primary race is that one of them, (or, you know, maybe one of the remaining handful of Republicans who haven’t announced yet) has to win.

So Jindal’s solution for ISIS is eternal Jingoistic warfare.
Ummm, that might just require raising the income tax to pay for it Piyush.

Not true. While Louisianans aren’t happy with him, they hate Obama and what they feel the national Democratic Party now represents even more. Hillary Clinton might do a little better in Louisiana than Obama, but whoever wins the Republican nomination (whether it is Jindal or Jeb Bush or even Ted Cruz) will win Louisiana by double-digits.
