Jindal defends criticism of Obama economic policy
Source: ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON (AP) Gov. Bobby Jindal is defending his harsh criticism of President Barack Obama within yards of the Oval Office, saying in America we dont have a king.
The Republican was criticized by a Democratic governor Monday after Jindal emerged with others from a meeting with Obama and said the president seems to be waving the white flag of surrender on the economy.
Jindal tells MSNBC Wednesday the White House belongs to the people and he had a duty to speak his mind.
During Mondays remarks by governors in the White House driveway after the meeting with Obama, Connecticut Democratic Gov. Dannel Malloy took over the microphone from Jindal and responded sharply. Malloy told reporters, quote, Wait a second, until a few moments ago we were going down a pretty cooperative road.

(30,058 posts)this standing. He could implement trade schools to train the citizens of Louisiana to be able to work in different trades but he would rather criticize Obama for not approving Keystone pipeline of which will not even be going through his state. He doesn't think it is a good time to increase the minimum wages of his state. He is all mouth and no do, doesn't display any signs of leadership.

I think the Governor needs to take his own words to heart. Or, to put it another way - You first, Governor.

But, he never seems to figure that out. That's why he's known as "Booby Jindull".
