Jindal rips Trump

Jindal is 10x more accomplished and credible than anything the Left has to offer. It's not even close.

You must not live in Louisiana... The vast majority of the state hates him because of how terrible he was.

Stats?

Just to pile on:

Jindal Blames PP for State’s Terrible Record on Pregnancy, STDs

Bobby Jindal want on an Iowa right-wing radio show and made a dazzlingly moronic attempt at shifting the blame for Louisiana’s record on teen pregnancy and STDs from the government that he leads to Planned Parenthood. Apparently the fact that they exist and have a whopping two clinics in the state makes it their fault that those problems haven’t been fixed yet, despite his own massive cuts in funding for programs that would help.

Jindal, in an interview with Iowa talk radio host Simon Conway, reacted to a Des Moines Register editorial that criticized him for cutting off Medicaid payments to Planned Parenthood in his state in the wake of recent smear videos. The newspaper’s editorial board notes that few states have a greater need for Planned Parenthood’s services, including affordable STI tests and treatments and contraception than Louisiana, which has some of the highest teen pregnancy and STI rates in the countries, and some of the nation’s worst poverty.

Planned Parenthood’s two Louisiana clinics conduct tens of thousands of STI tests and other health services each year; neither provides abortions.

But Jindal insisted that his state’s abysmal public health and poverty record is just proof that Planned Parenthood is “awful at what they do.”

“If they’re doing such a great job, why aren’t these things better?” he asked. “We should cancel their contract for no other reason, just that they’re awful at what they do.”

Because you’ve eliminated their funding even for STD testing and cancer screenings and signed a bill that forbid them from being involved in sex education programs? If you were serious about reducing the rate of unwanted pregnancies and STDs, there’s an easy way to do it: Free and anonymous birth control and free and anonymous STD testing and treatment. You’d be funding the hell out of Planned Parenthood, which provides all of those things but is limited in how much they can do because of a lack of funding.

But Bobby Jindal has no desire whatsoever to make the lives of people better in this regard, he only wants to score cheap political points while running for president.

I rest my case.
