TPM: More Proof Surfaces of Jindal's Katrina Lies [w/video link]

Now, Jindal's reps are still in high dudgeon over this, saying Jindal was totally on the level, claiming some mix of it not making any difference whether Jindal made up his role in the story or not or that what Jindal actually said was never meant to imply that he was part of the story rather than someone who heard about it later. But that's pretty preposterous if you look at what Jindal actually said.

But now there's this. TPM Reader EA just flagged this youtube video that appears to show Jindal telling the same story last year, only with even more embroidery about his own part in the drama ...

1. Whats up wih Republicans and telling lies
1) They have become accustomed to the American people being stupid and

2) They have been telling these lies for years and now it's beginning
to bite them in the ass.

Telling lies with confidence.....

4. My theory is they got to
do it sooooo long during the bushwellian years that they got all the rope they needed and then some.

Plus, they must feel a little cocky knowing the corporatemediawhores aren't going to go after them like they do Obama.

Time for the corporatemediawhores to be held accountable.

3. The story just keeps getting
juicier and totally obliterating the lie he was trying to make about..? Big Gov=bad, bobby jindal=good:silly:

Obama's already said he wants a smarter Government..not bigger or smaller but jindal is not passing the IQ for a smarter Gov.
