Hindu-born Christian convert Piyush ‘Bobby’ Jindal, the Indian whacko who wants abortion to be disallowed without exception even in rape or incest cases or if the mother’s health is at grave risk, has developed a bad case of Presidential itch.
In a desperate bid to gain attention of the media, the Republican base and Republican donors, Jindal is not only flinging mud at Obamacare but throwing up a sick alternative to fix America’s disgraceful healthcare system.
Jindal charges Obamacare with being “fiscally unsustainable” and demands the signature ‘achievement’ of Barack Obama “be repealed in its entirety.”
Folks, let’s not forget that it was the same hypocrite Jindal who voted “No” to allowing the government to negotiate directly with drugmakers for lower prescription drug prices for Medicare patients. That would have yielded significant savings to the government but the so called fiscal conservative Jindal opposed the measure.
If Jindal’s opposition to Obamacare and his alternative proposal are bad news, the good news is that the bozo has no chance of making any headway with his stupid plan and zero possibility of getting Obamacare repealed.
Obamacare – Far from Perfect
We’ll be the first to admit Obamacare is not perfect.
Good Lord, there’re so many issues with it including high premiums, high deductibles and the refusal to confront the crucial issue of obscene pricing by doctors, hospitals and pharmaceutical companies.
But Obamacare is at least a beginning in the right direction since it has some pluses like coverage of pre-existing conditions.
Jindal Alternative – Trash
Bobby Jindal’s alternative for fixing America’s healthcare crisis is the same old rehash of Republican non-starter initiatives of the past.
Using meaningless expressions like “empowering patients” and “enhancing patient choice” in a 24-page proposal released today, Jindal lashes out at Obamacare.
At bottom, Bobby Jindal is no different from any of the other Republicans in his love for “market forces” to fix America’s disgraceful healthcare system. No matter that the market is poor comfort for millions without insurance.
Some of the measures Jindal recommends in his proposal include:
* Standard tax deduction for all insurance purchases
* Encouraging Health Savings accounts
* Restricting abortion
* Bringing religion into healthcare by allowing businesses and doctors/nurses the legal right to refuse to provide services on “conscience” grounds [see p.19 of Jindal’s plan]
* Limiting malpractice lawsuits against hospitals and doctors and damages for victims
* Destroying Medicare by trying to push elderly into private “premium support” schemes
* Cutting Medicaid through the cockamamie nonsense of “fixed funding allotment”
* Letting people buy insurance across state lines (a suggestion discredited by economists like Paul Krugman and other thinkers as being harmful to consumers)
Most of Jindal’s proposals are worthless and will do little to improve America’s train-wreck of a healthcare system.
Given rampant, inhuman greed of hospitals, pharma companies and doctors, the only humane healthcare system is a universal single-payer system like Canada or UK.
But a single-payer system will never come about in America as long as we have ReThuglican beasts like Bobby Jindal with their satanic love for “market forces.”
What about Bobby?
Given his Christian fundamentalist beliefs, Bobby Jindal is a disgrace to the Indian community and a blot on America.
Besides his nasty Christian fundamentalist beliefs, Jindal is also pro-guns, opposes gay marriage, voted against the Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2007 and is opposed to raising the minimum wage (a pathetic $7.25 an hour).
But as with all savage beasts, Jindal suffers from unbridled ambition.
The man can’t wait to get into the White House.
Currently in his second term as Louisiana Governor, Jindal has his eyes fixed on the 2016 Presidential elections.
But this clown Jindal has as much chance of becoming President as I have of dating Jennifer Lawrence!
In the 2014 Conservative Political Action Conference straw poll held in early March, Jindal got a pitiful 2% of the votes, same as that dodo Sarah Palin.
After six years as Governor, if Jindal could muster just 2% of the Conservative votes then his chances of becoming President in 2016 is less than ZERO. 🙂
Jindal is unpopular even in his home state Louisiana.
In a recent opinion poll, 53% of Louisiana voters disapproved of Jindal’s performance as Governor.
It took over 200 years for a Black man to become President.
If this Brown beast Bobby Jindal thinks he’s going to become President in 2016, then I’m Alexander the Great.

This dude reminds me of yesteryear comedian Nagesh.
Anyway, i have little knowledge about American politics (hell I don’t know the difference between republicans and democrats nor do I have any interest in learning).
But is it that easy for a coolie to become the governor of a US state? That too twice?
Either he’s some kind of visionary (being sarcastic here) or the American people are just too gullible, more so than Indians.

1. You write: hell I don’t know the difference between republicans and democrats.
Republicans are wolves in wolves’ clothing.
Democrats are wolves in sheep’s garb!
You may now consider yourself an expert on American politics. 😉
2. You write: But is it that easy for a coolie to become the governor of a US state? That too twice?
Bobby Jindal is a local coolie (i.e. born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana).
Louisiana is a God-forsaken state in the South (kinda like the stereotypical Bihar or UP in India with their Ram Bhaktas, brazenly corrupt netas and majority illiterates).
Semi-literate idiots, nut-cases, racist scum, corrupt swines and Jesus-mad zombies constitute the essence of Louisiana.
Our Piyush a.k.a. Bobby being smart ‘discovered’ Jesus and anti-abortionism at an early age and there’s been no stopping him since.
But what sells in illiterate Bihar won’t fly in highly literate Kerala!
3. You write: the American people are just too gullible, more so than Indians.
Never underestimate the stupidity of Americans!
After all, we elected George W.Bush President ‘twice’ (elected the first time by the U.S. Supreme Court and second time by the people).
This guy is the anti Obama.
I agree your odds of dating JL are better than him becoming President.
(Just show her your website and your writings, or may be write an interesting screenplay, a really funny comedy, you may have a shot)
Bobby on the other hand has no hope, the real Republican powers themselves will never let this happen.

Bobby Jindal is a sick Indian Catholic f*cked up Whacko!
Who but a sick whacko would oppose abortion under any circumstance.
Thanks to term limits, the ^*&@# will be out of a job in 2016.
I can’t wait for the day!
To use the language of yesteryear Whites, Bobby is still “Boy” to the Republican establishment and voters outside of that screwed up state Louisiana.
If you have time, you should read about Huey Long, one of the most colorful characters from Louisiana who was assassinated in the 1930s.

1. Just read the Economist hatchet job on Modi in your link.
Let’s not forget that it was the British who stoked the fires of Communalism when they were pillaging and looting India.
Nearly 70 years later, the embers are still glowing – A lot of the current Hindu-Muslim problems in India is an unsavory legacy of the British (mis)rule.
And now these sanctimonious bastards and petty thieves (at least 300 British MPs were caught last year in the bogus expenses scandal) want to lecture India.
Good or bad, Democracy is all we have. And in the coming weeks, we’ll know if India wants Narendra Modi as its Prime Minister.
2. I don’t understand why we should give so much importance and credence to what some British publication says about India, its politicians or its people.
Put yourself in a Brit’s shoes. Would he give a f*ck to what Times of India or Indian Express writes about a UK politician. The drunken sod will probably tell the Indians to “F*ck Off”…..And that’s precisely what we should tell the Brits.
Unfortunately, Indians are so used to cocksucking – and they love it all the more when it’s a White Man’s dick lodged in their throat – that we still give a lot of importance to what White Trash says about us.
Not surprising that there are 925 comments to that Economist piece. I assume, rightly, that the majority of comments come from Chutiyas a.k.a. Indians.
3. Finally, the Economist piece hardly breaks any new ground…just a run of the mill editorial piece.
I agree that piece does not add anything new to what we already know.
By the way, did you have a chance to look at it? It’s very interactive.

The trend actually shifted from 1989 elections (click on the left one for the interactive analytics options).

I’d say 1989 elections were when the Indian electorate woke up to the Corruption demon eating into India’s vitals in a big way.
Indian Express and Hindu newspapers played a huge role in exposing the Bofors bribes paid to Congress politicians of that period (you were probably a toddler or still swimming in the womb then). 😉
Unfortunately, Congress has stymied all efforts to get to the bottom of the Bofors bribes.
Congress’ protection of the Bofors bribe-givers and bribe-takers was a huge factor in its defeats starting from 1989. Congress became known as the Corruption party (others are no better but Congress got hit the hardest because they were in power for most of the time).
In life, it’s often hard to pinpoint cause and effects with any degree of certainty.
But we can safely credit the Swedes, Indian Express and Hindu for rousing the Indian asses from their deep slumber!
2. No, I hadn’t seen the IBN chart before.
I’ll play with it. Thanks!
BTW, have you voted????
Not yet. Tamilnadu goes to polls on Apr 24th.
