He spends his weekend with McCain. Neo con right wing radio and TV commentators call him energetic young man in Republican Party. These same neo cons spare no one of color. Why are they so fond of Bobby Jindal.

To seek the answer to that question, you must look at Collin Powell – the man who had to lie in front of the whole world to satisfy George Bush and the associated neo con right wingers in waging a war against a country on ‘lies’.

Jindal is no different that Collin Powell. These George Bush and company would any one to satisfy their needs. They have Fox News well paid commentators on their side. After all Rupert Murdock helps promote right wing supremacy in US.

Jindal is in trouble finally. He played his cards very well uphill now. The neo cons thought he could be used. He thought neo cons could be used. But now he faces Louisiana’s common people for the first time. His honeymoon with right wing racist component of Louisiana politics may finally be over.

Jindal, Jim Tucker, the Speaker of Louisiana’s House of Representatives and two other lawmakers are all targets of the recall efforts after they facilitated the salary raise for legislators. Jindal promised not to do so but he broke his promise.

This week he signed into law a bill that seeks to undercut the teaching of evolution in Louisiana’s public schools. The bill is a back-door effort by Louisiana to bring back its infamous “Creationism Act”, passed in the 1980s, that prohibited the teaching of Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution in schools unless it was accompanied by instruction in “creation science” which highlights, in practice, the role of God in creating the universe.

That law was declared unconstitutional by the US Supreme Court on the ground that it amounted to an endorsement of religion.

The whole of US appealed to him not to allow ‘God’ of a specific religion come into the class room. He allowed it following orders neo con right wing Republicans. He also signed into law another bill that would permit chemical castration of convicted rapists and other sex offenders in his state. According to most experts it is against the US Constitution because it amounts to a “cruel and unusual punishment”.

He is trying to prove his neo con qualities before getting invited to become McCain’s running mate. He may be the biggest disgrace of the Indian American community in US.
