Louisiana is the POSTER CHILD for all that is wrong with so-called ed reform. Vouchers for all and there are school teaching that dinosaurs existed at the same time as people. New Orleans is virtually an all-charter district (and with the predictable outcomes and fraud).

Yes, he wants them dumb and malleable (as though no one can see what he is doing to the children of his state - at least those in public schools).

If it wasn't for stupid people there would be no Republican Party at all.

It's all just talk.

Now, cue the outrage among the conservative echo-chamber. W/in two days, we'll see Jindal effigies hung on trees, right next to Obama.

Governor of Louisiana.

Wants to talk like grownups.

Good luck with that, Bobby.

Jindal, of course, meant that they were totally that party, but that they needed to fight the (correct) perception that those were the dominant faction or the Republican Party's priorities.

Honestly, the dust ups about the dumb comments were when the faction that the plutocrats have been riding attempted to steer the party so they could get a bite at the carrot the rich kept dangling in front of them.

I know Jindal is already campaigning for 2016, but I don't think he will be their nominee. With the way he has screwed up this state (and in particular, alienated the state's media--he won't speak to them), he wouldn't even win Louisiana.

In the last gubernatorial election, when he was running essentially unopposed (his best-funded opponent had a campaign budget of a whopping $50k), he got just over 60% of the vote statewide, and barely got over 50% in his home parish.

He also vetoed a law that was passed that just continued a small tax on cigarettes, the proceeds of which helped fund healthcare in the state, and then proceeded to dismantle the state-run health system, including firing it's very well qualified director when he dared disagree with Lord Bobby.

He's just more of the same, no matter how good a game he talks.
