Reply #13: What a Sucker "Issue" It had to be planted by GOP strategists.

I can't express how angry I am so many people took the bait on this. The GOP is laughing their big, fat, corporate asses off right now.

Piyush Jindal (aka "Bobby" - not part of the Bradys - despite the fact that's where he got his new name) is the governor of his state. Bitching about the expense of Piyush's flying around that state to meet with his constituents is so ridiculous I'm ashamed. I'm ashamed so many people were dumb enough to let themselves be manipulated by Piyush Jindal and the GOP into bitching about it.

Piyush Jindal is the governor of LA. Piyush has an obligation to reach out and visit his constituents. So I can't muster the anger to feel Piyush is doing something wrong if he uses state funds to fly around the state. Contact with "the people" is part of Piyush's job

The HUGE FLIPPING ISSUE I HAVE is that Piyush seems to only fly to Christian services. We have a Constitution and Bill of Rights that dictate Piyush has a responsibility to ensure he's giving the Zoroastrians, the Wiccans, the Hindus, the Shinto, the the Jewish, the Muslims, the atheists and any other religious group the same face-time he gives Christians.

His trips to any Christian congregation clearly demonstrate how unfit

It doesn't seem to me he's respecting the First Amendment.

Stop focusing on money it costs for this little prick to travel to churches. Focus on how his trips to Christian churches compare to his trips to Temples, Mosques, Synagogues and his whether or not he engages agnostics and atheists. Then pressure the little shit to live up to the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Make him stop discriminating against the people who don't share his Christian faith. Make him give equal time to those religions and people who don't follow the same faith he follows. In other words, make him be fair.

This is where you find Piyush "Bobby" Jindal is violating his trust of the people of his state.
