Jindal: Rand Paul "unsuited" to be commander in chief

[protectionist]

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal took a swing at Rand Paul on Wednesday, calling him "unsuited" to take over as commander in chief.

Jindal slammed Paul's argument as "illogical," insisting instead that "evil and radical Islam" is the only source of ISIS. He also added, though, that President Barack Obama and leading Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton "exacerbate" ISIS.

"The next President's job is to have the discipline and strength to wipe ISIS off the face of the earth. It has become impossible to imagine a President Paul defeating radical Islam, and it's time for the rest of us to say it," Jindal said.

New York Congressman Peter King, talking on MSNBC, also raked Paul over the coals on his outlandish comments about ISIS, calling him an "isolationist" who could have fit in with those back in the 1930s. I suspect most Republicans and eve some Democrats will rebuke Paul on this .

Paul, who before this (and his Patriot Act filibuster) had good scores in the polls, could quite likely have talked himself right out of the GOP nomination race. It's hard to imagine him even being re-elected as Senator, let alone run for President.

That's pretty funny coming from Jindal. He isn't worth a darn.

Why? Because he didn't reduce it to cute little bite-size Islamophobe nuggets like a good little demagogue?

It's revealing you refer to "his outlandish comments about ISIS" without ever mentioning what those comments were. From your own link:

"ISIS exists and grew stronger because of the hawks in our party."
​

-- Which Jindal, in a classic example of Doublethink, then describes as "taking the weakest, most liberal Democrat position."

Apparently Bobby Brady doesn't know what party Rand Paul is in.

It's his right to think and say what he wants. some might agree with him. some might not

Paul's Republican campaign is in a flat spin, because his foreign policy platform leap frogs over Obama's boots off policies, and lands to the left of liberals, right in the back yards of Bernie Saunders and Michael Moore.

And nobody in that neighborhood wants him

I don't see how this guy gets the GOP nomination without the standard neo-con approach to war.

I do think he just shot himself in the foot over all this. A lot people are saying he's just like his dad on foreign Policy. only time will tell. He's ok, but was never high on list anyway

He's always held this position, that's why I was a little surprised to see him get in. This is a pretty foundational element for the party, but if he had said anything else they'd be able to use his earlier comments against him.

Hey, Ron Paul was a very outspoken critic of the Bush Iraq war, right from the beginning. Say what you will about the Pauls, they're not obedient sheep.

 

[hipeter924]

Neither will be President, let alone win the nomination. It will be either Jeb Bush, Rubio, or Hillary Clinton. Rand Paul has the best lead on Clinton, and the best chance of being elected out of the GOP, but establishment figures are what bring in the donors.

To wipe ISIS off the face of the earth... They may be the enemy, but they still have some basic human rights, can't just go about exterminating people for the hell of it. Why let the evil ones turn us into them? So, Jindal is done. Besides, nothing wrong with being an isolationist. The whole Middle East is insane, always has been, always will be. They'll never learn to get along peacefully if we keep getting involved. If we have to war over there, what's in it for us? What do we get besides some casualties and debt? Are they willing to give up their territory so we can add more stars to our flag? No, they are not. The world expects some kind of peacekeeping mission or police action thing, as if that was somehow a more noble pursuit, but it's not. It's just a means for the enemy to deplete us of all morality and virtue until next thing you know all the sodomites are taking over as our police are increasingly brutal to our citizens and riots break out in our cities. Oh look, that's already happening. Thanks, Jindal. Thanks a lot.

What on earth are you talking about ? ISIS has basic human rights ? They are worse than a pack of wolves. They are bloodthirsty, genocidal, mass murderers who just killed hundreds of civilians in Ramadi, in a sports stadium, most of them women and children. I'll tell you what they have to right to receive >> 100% EXTERMINATION, just as you would exterminate a colony of ants or fleas in your house.

As for being an isolationist, there is everything wrong with it. It was isolationism in Europe that led to the rise of Adolf Hitler and the 3rd Reich,which should/could have been stopped earlier, before they grew to the major destructive force that they did. Now with ISIS, this is even more dangerous. We live now in a world with NUCLEAR weaponry, which ISIS is striving to gain possession of either from corrupt officials in Pakistan, or just acquiring enough wealth to buy scientists , materials, and everything they need to annihilate the West.

What do we get ? We get SURVIVAL, that's what. We get to not have 100+ Pakistani nuclear warheads hitting us in the head. And oh, last but not least, so now it is we Americans who are the immorals huh ? Well, I can see the America haters have got you programmed. And the cop-haters too. Not only are you unaware of the power relationships between the international jihad and the sane world, but you've apparently fallen like a ton of bricks for the Obama-Sharpton anti-cop campaign to stir up the Democratic party's Black base, to keep them angry, and maximize their vote count. What's "happening" is you being clueless on foreign policy + duped on the domestic end.

No, there isn't.
That's why I spelled it right in the first place.

I think Rand Paul knows perfectly well what party he's in -- he refers to it with the pronoun "our".
For that matter Jindal knows too. What he doesn't know is that dissent is a healthy thing. The story tells much more about Jindal --- that apparently he's a lockstep-bot. That means Jindal's stock goes down while Paul's goes up.

Predicting a November 2016 election in May 2015 ? Not hardly. As for what "lead" Rand Paul might have HAD, that WAS from polls taken before his idiotic anti-Patriot Act filibuster,and his equally idiotic (if not worse) comments, attacking other Republicans, and cheering for isloationism.

Bobby Brady -- the TV kid character -- is where Jindal took his name from. Everybody in Sleazeiana knows this.

But yes, good point, they will have to "create ideological space". And there ain't shit wrong with having a view that isn't lockstep with the party line. Anytime anyone anywhere takes a detour like that I think it's a breath of fresh air. Even if the position they take is dead wrong. Because it's better to dare to think outside the box than operate as a parrot.
