The USA didn't invent the automobile. Henry Ford was the first to mass produce cars, but I think the first (internal combustion) goes to Germany.

Ivy League isolation.


When is Obama going to stop campaigning? Or . . . is that all he knows how to do?


I didn't make it to the end of the speech. There was nothing new.

Seemed like a good workout if you were in the crowd last night. Every couple words they were standing up and clapping. It was kind of weird watching

I actualy enjoyed listening to the Gov. of Louisiana

I just couldn't get over his southern accent, that just cracked me up.
But personaly I thougth is was right on target with where and what the gov.
should be doing.

The LSM was marketing this as a 'Reagan-esque' speech.



Looks like he pulled off a Hoover, even with a teleprompter.

Check this video out from MSNBC: http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2009/02/msnbc_oh_god.html

One of those unbiased journalists says "Oh God" as Jindal walks into the frame.

Then that makes one of you....

Even the talking heads over at FAUX News - David Brooks, Brit Hume, Sean Hannity, Charles Krauthamer, as well as all the others - all thought that Jindal did poorly. "Whiney and sing-songy...." as one said, just making 'facts' up in other places, said another. (There is no multi-billion dollar mag-lev planned between Disneyland and Las Vegas, even though connecting to two greatest symbols of artifice in the world sounds appealing.) The *only* conservative voice to praise Jindal was that bloviating gasbag, Rush Limburger, going so far as to say that if you didn't like Jindal, he doesn't want to hear from you ever again. If this represents 'the best and brightest' that the republican party has to offer these days, then other parties should have nothing to fear in future elections, as the repubs are going to be #4 or 5 the next time, coming in somewhere behind the democrats, the libertarians, the greens or whowver else choses to run. I find it strange that the republican party today is represented by this odd "mod squad": a whiney guy, the token black guy, and a barely-literate, moose-hunting MILF.

I honestly hope (and I really mean it) that the GOP comes up with someone better than this weirdo Jindal in next 4+ years to represent them. I prefer to have good selection of quality people regardless of party affiliation.

He is clearly a very intelligent person, but he comes off as a total whack job and clusterfuck. He makes Ralph Nadar appear totally normal.

Why are people making him out to be the GOP young gun of the future?

But I am sure Mark thought his post speech was spot on.
