Frontiers of Ignorance
Bobby Jindal, Louisiana’s Governor, is once more not happy with President Obama.
Although he has no suggestions as to how to handle the situation in Ukraine, he feels sure that the whole thing would just go away if people would just stop saying that President Obama is smart.
Yep, that right there is the solution.
This president is often praised for his intelligence. The events in Crimea should spur us to revisit that notion, or at least to mark the difference between wisdom and intelligence.
But, Jindal has that wisdom. He says …
… wise presidents have always understood that American weakness leads to violence, American strength to stability.
Oh yeah, that’s why we had stability under Bush and violence under Clinton. No, wait. The people at the WMDBS, Inc. corporate headquarters are telling me that I have that backwards.
I’m wondering about Jindal’s thought processes here, too. He whimpers that, “our president is reducing the size of our military and boasting about the record number of Americans on food stamps.” Oh, so Bobby wants to be North Korea. Well hell, Bobby, if that’s your solution, see if Dennis Rodman will help you out.
Have I told y’all today that I hate these people? “Be strong” is not a solution. “Bring it on!” didn’t work, Bobby. They brought it and our economy tanked and our soldiers died.
Cripes, offer a solution or sit down and shuddup.
