American Idiot Watch for Monday, June 15, 2008
Posted by Jill | 7:44 AM
Today's American Idiot is Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal, who's allegedly on John McCain's short list, presumably under the premise that if Republicans have a "brown guy" on the ticket it'll make them look like something other than the regional racist party.

Jindal is a guy who was a biology major in college but who has performed exorcisms and thinks that intelligent design is simply an "alternate view" that deserves to be taught in schools right alongside evolution. He thinks it should be up to local school boards to decide whether students are taught reality or fairy tales:





We have the likes of John Edwards, Kathleen Sibelius, Bill Richardson, Joe Biden, and yes, Hillary Clinton under consideration. They have a guy who claims to have driven out the devil and thinks "I don't understand it....it must be MAGIC" (&trade: Marc Maron) constitutes scientific method.

And you think McCain DOESN'T believe those things???
Birds of a feather and all that...
But I suspect it would be very difficult for the Repubs to find someone who did believe in the scientific method -- ie, anyone with an IQ above average -- to run with McSame....

McCain thinks there's a lot of idiots in the US, and he needs someone who can bring out the idiot vote.

When the stupid burns, I blame god.

I am very happy that my cousin holds my Governor in the same light as I do.

In fact, Jindal is MUCH worse than that but has some uncanny ability to manipulate the media.

Anyone seeking more information on Jindal need only look at my blog.
