I find it ironic that the teabaggers find the name "Barack Obama" somehow foreign, but embrace a governor named Piyush Jindal -- sort of selective racism. The president's and the governor's names should not matter. Their character and ideas are what should count.
Mapko, in Louisiana, there's a difference in attitude toward Indians and African-Americans.
Jindal seems relaxed amongst his own. Usually, he talks too fast. On the night of his response to the SOTU, he must have been overcoached, for he seemed frozen out of all emotion. He slowed down, all right, but the speech was still a disaster. He is such a Puritan.

ReplyDeleteInteresting that he is far more polished and assured than when he made his disastrous national television debut.
ReplyDeleteNothing ironic about it, Mapko. Our good old friend the Republican double standard, yet again.
