Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal has apparently decided being the “stupid party” is chic after all and he has proven it with this mind-blowing column.
At some point, the American public is going to revolt against the nanny state and the leftward march of this president. I don’t know when the tipping point will come, but I believe it will come soon.
Why?
Because the left wants: The government to explode; to pay everyone; to hire everyone; they believe that money grows on trees; the earth is flat; the industrial age, factory-style government is a cool new thing; debts don’t have to be repaid; people of faith are ignorant and uneducated; unborn babies don’t matter; pornography is fine; traditional marriage is discriminatory; 32 oz. sodas are evil; red meat should be rationed; rich people are evil unless they are from Hollywood or are liberal Democrats; the Israelis are unreasonable; trans-fat must be stopped; kids trapped in failing schools should be patient; wild weather is a new thing; moral standards are passé; government run health care is high quality; the IRS should violate our constitutional rights; reporters should be spied on; Benghazi was handled well; the Second Amendment is outdated; and the First one has some problems too.
There’s so much going on here I’ll have to break it down.

Jobs are bad, mmkay?
debts don’t have to be repaid; people of faith are ignorant and uneducated; unborn babies don’t matter
Yes. The very liberal President Obama, who is on a “leftward march,” doesn’t believe that debts have to be repaid, which is exactly why the deficit has shrank every single year that he’s been in office. Of course one could always quote the endlessly-quotable Dick Cheney who said deficits don’t matter.
And we obviously don’t care about the unborn, which is why we’re advocates for reproductive health clinics and proper prenatal care.
pornography is fine
No argument there. Although I will point out that the highest online porn consumption in the nation occurs in Utah. Utah isn’t exactly a liberal bastion.
traditional marriage is discriminatory; 32 oz. sodas are evil; red meat should be rationed
Disallowing any form of marriage other than “traditional” is discriminatory, and I love red meat. As for sodas, I love those too, but I try to cut back.
trans-fat must be stopped
Is the Republican party now that pro-trans-fat party? Is this the logical conclusion of opposing the ban on large drink sizes? How about low fat and low sodium? I’ll bet those are a liberal plot as well.
moral standards are passé
Who needs moral standards? Opposing funding for pre-K education, cutting children off food stamps, and attempting to repeal Obamacare 37 times is so much fun. Pre-existing conditions are the true moral high ground.
the IRS should violate our constitutional rights; reporters should be spied on
What?
the Second Amendment is outdated; and the First one has some problems too.
You’ve finally caught me red-handed. I do believe the second amendment is outdated, but I don’t have a problem with the first. And as much as dislike them, I won’t be joining Peter King (R) in his call to arrest certain writers who are protected by it.
Bobby Jindal doesn’t know when this tipping point will come, when Americans will realize that pornography is terrible and that trans-fat has what plants crave, but he’s pretty sure it will come soon.
