Another One Jumps in the Shallow End

June 24, 2015 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Oh y’all, life is so good.  Bobby Jindal is running for President to offend everybody.

Your turn is coming.  He just hasn’t gotten to hating you yet.

IBM was supposed to have a ribbon-curing ceremony on Monday night at their new proposed plant in Baton Rouge, which will bring 800 jobs.  They cancelled it after Jindal signed an executive order to Hate The Gays after the Hate The Gays bill stalled in the legislature.

The technology giant IBM voiced “strong opposition” to Louisiana’s so-called religious freedom legislation as far back as mid-April.

In a letter to the governor, IBM executives said the legislation cut at the very heart of what their company stands for, equal rights and opportunity for everyone, discrimination for no one. The letter implored Jindal not to support any agenda that protected discrimination against LGBT people.

Yeah, Jindal, it ain’t like you can point to Louisiana as a model of economic and educational powerhouse, dude.  So ya gotta run on hate.  We certainly need some more of that.

Thanks to Charles for the heads up.

Be social and share!

  2. Now we know one more thing about Little Piyush. He doesn’t have a Triskaidekaphobia. Just about the only positive qualification he has.

  3. I guess we know Bobby Jindal’s hypothetical answer to the the question, “If you could travel somewhere in a time machine…”

    It wouldn’t be “I’d go back to WW2 and kill Hitler.” Bobby would go after Alan Turning. ‘Cause he’s gay.

    He’d hate me if he knew me. OTOH if he knew me he might be just a little singed around the edges.

    The republican primary is like the line at the public swimming pool, where one kid after the other waits to do a cannonball off the diving board. Their goal is to make the biggest splash, but remember, Christie’s turn is coming up. Problem is, not one of ’em knows how to dive or swim. The lifeguards will be fishing them out of one big misstep after another.

    His own state is disowning him. His own religion has a completely different take on life, the universe and everything than he does. His own party hates people his melanin levels, even if he did go against his own advice and turned stupid to try to win them over. His wife and kids probably think he’s okay, but I’m guessing he can’t even turn his back on his own dog.

    You can for for all the presidencies you want, Piyush. Ain’t nobody gonna love you like you love yourself.

    I think that’s what it is for a lot of these clowns: either take a long hard look at yourself, and risk suicide, or pretend like nothing’s wrong with you and run for president.

  7. I understand he also likes the Confederate flag and doesn’t think it should be removed anywhere. He’s really helping the poor people of Louisiana, kissing off 800 decent jobs at an IBM plant. Guess he wants them to stay poor and ignorant.

    You go, Bob! Bobby Jindal enters presidential race with support of just one likely GOP voter, new poll finds

  9. Just one more participant in the Klown Kar Grifters R Us game.

    I have some Louisiana Fambly who were were rather high in academia there who actually voted for this dufus. All their lives they had been known for not suffering fools gladly. I can’t begin to explain their votes. We haven’t talked since Piyush decimated the LSU budget. The next Fambly reunion should be interesting.

  10. Jindal is running for president? Who would have thought? JEB also came as a complete surprise.

  11. He kissed off 800 jobs? I don’t care what his “reason” was, there was just no excuse for that. One of the local BR areas that would have benefitted is Scotlandville, a poor African American enclave. I first saw it on my honeymoon as we drove through from N’leans to big BR and I saw it again over a year ago and so help me nothing is changed except that it does look even worse than ever. Dammit, Bobby Jindal! You know the hell better! What will it take? The Pope personally “measures you for a saddle”? (All the equestrians out there will know what that is.)

    All I’m reading is that IBM cancelled the ceremony. Has anyone seen where they say they are cancelling the entire proposed plant construction? I hope they are, but I don’t see it in their statement.

  13. Roberto says:

    The plant is complete.

    IBM canceled the ribbon-cutting ceremony to open the plant.

    IBM did what????

    They canceled the the ribbon-cutting ceremony to open the plant. The plant is complete and ready to go.

    That and a sternly-worded letter will certainly teach Jindal and his posse a lesson they’ll never forget!

  14. “Guess he wants them to stay poor and ignorant.”

    how else do you think he gets elected? no reasonably educated person would be self-loathing enough to vote for him.

    what a waste of a Rhode’s Scholarship this guy is. he so desperately wants to be seen as white, he’ll happily destroy the entire state of LA to accomplish it. Gov. Jindal, this is never going to happen, just accept it and move on.

  15. Wow. I’m going to have to write some new limericks.
