Another Intellectual Tidbit

Challenging someone to prove that Man Made Global Warming exists, offers to give someone 500k for it. Heh.

Daily Republican Quote (since you won't get it in the newspaper)
"Now, instead of working hard so our children can have a better life tomorrow, we are asking our children to work hard so that we don’t have to make tough choices today."

Jindal, O sweet Jindal
What's this? A clean, articulate, Conservative? That's just not possible. But wait, it is. The Louisiana Governor, in the GOP's response to Obama's speech, was right on. I know it's too early to celebrate, but Jindal seems to be just what the Republicans need.
Let me start out by saying that I don't like the tone that he took in the official response to Obama. It was small. I felt like he was talking to some kindergarten kids, and that I was listening in. At first. Then I actually started hearing what he was saying, and realized that he was making complete sense. For weeks, as this Obamunism has been taking affect, my head been screaming no. I haven't been able to put a finger on it. Of course, you can point at the trillions of spending, and the debt left over to children children's children. But I couldn't articulate why I felt that it was wrong. Conservatism was swirling around in my brain, and then suddently, it saw Jindal speaking on screen, and it said yes. Yes to the idea that people, not government, is the answer.
Reuters. The first sentence says it all.
Jindal was also interviewed by the Today Show. First off, I was amazed that they would play Obama's speech in the background while the Governer was talking. Talk about disrespect. That aside, his response to the very tough questions posed to him was right on the money. He started off respectful of Obama, and then just showed where they differed. It's about time that someone stood up and said that enough is enough, and that we aren't going to be snowed anymore. The best point that he brought up was that "there's not enough money in Washington to grow our economy." He's completely right.
Jindal, you shyed away from taking Obama to task, and rightfully so. You don't just go after a sitting President for fun. They have that bully pulpit. But here's the thing. You have tremendously good ammo, and while you are using some of it, I don't think you are being strong enough in your articulation of the mistakes being made by the Obama administration. His ideas are nothing new, it's standard Democrat Party lines, wrapped up and preached by an excellent speaker. We need to point out that Obama has spoken time and time again about how bipartisanship prevailed, and how there was no Pork in this Stimulus Bill. We know that's not the case, and the feeling that I get around Orange County here is that people know it too. Hit on that! I know that you are trying to keep the nice guy routine going, but I'm tired of being trodden on and trounced by the liberal media. Give them some nice juicy soundbites that they can't help but play. What's his approval rating? I keep waiting for the hot air balloon ride that is Obama to come down, but there's strong wind keeping it afloat.
Please, Jindal, be as good as you seem. I'm tired of being excited by politicians, only to have them picked apart by the liberal media, sometimes even rightfully so. If you aren't the new voice of Conservatism, I will be dreadfully disappointed. God bless you sir, and God bless America.

Wow ... just ... wow
Ann Coulter: "But as long as the nation is obsessed with historic milestones, is no one going to remark on what a great country it is where a mentally retarded woman can become speaker of the house? "
I almost fell out of my chair laughing.

Why blame Bush? O, right. He's Republican.

Blame Bush if you will, but this happened a long time before him.
