Jindal is "Slumdog"...**RNC CHAIR** offers him "SLUM LOVE". "Friggin' awesome!!1"

[Bluebear]

In an interview with Curtis Sliwa on ABC Radio last night, the host and RNC Chairman Michael Steele jokingly linked Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal to the film "Slumdog Millionaire." Steele offered Jindal "slum love."

Here's the transcript:

SLIWA: Now, using a little bit of that street terminology, are you giving him any Slum love, Michael?

STEELE: (laughter)

SLIWA: Because he is — when guys look at him and young women look at him — they say oh, that's the slumdog millionaire, governor. So, give me some slum love.

STEELE: I love it. (inaudible) ... some slum love out to my buddy. Gov. Bobby Jindal is doing a friggin' awesome job in his state. He's really turned around on some core principles — like hey, government ought not be corrupt. The good stuff ... the easy stuff.

1. Oh my.

The goppers are doing well!:rofl:

They are going to take themselves down for 2010!

[tridim]

8. They're just getting a head start on their future losses.

2010, 2012, 2014 and 2016 are just about all 'friggin' wrapped up.

[DBoon]

14. will they break into a song-and-dance routine at the 2012 convention?

nt

2. .

:rofl:

[BurtWorm]

Steele is a keeper, eh, Repubs?

He's friggin' awesome.

:eyes:

[Bluebear]

12. Eloquent, no?

[goclark]

15. They are the gifts that keep on giving

Idiots that will not change.

[Diane R]

3. They really just don't get it, do they?

[gratuitous]

7. Took the words right off my keyboard

They just plain don't know any better.

[Bluebear]

[KamaAina]

4. Of course, if anybody says anything like that here,

they get :nuke: d.

IOKIYAR. :puke:

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

9. ...and for the same reason that we think Steele is a fucking moron. (nt)

[rvablue]

5. The tone deafness of the GOP is mind-boggling!

:crazy:

[Happyhippychick]

6. Steele is making Sarah Palin look eloquent. How frightening!

[Parker CA]

16. That's what I keep thinking. All this is a distraction for a plan to bring Palin back onto the

public stage and seem more palatable to some of those in the middle who thought she was such a nut. Compared to these two, Steele and Jindal, she seems like a pro.

[Bluebear]

20. 'All this is a distraction for a plan' - I don't think so. I really think this is all they have.

And it's pathetic.

[Parker CA]

22. Very well could be the case. I just find it a bit odd that Palin has so deliberately

removed herself from the stage and let the others take the beating in Obama's early days in office. It would make sense that she reemerge after some of her competition have been made asses of in the eye of the public.

Perhaps I'm giving them too much credit for such a plan, but regardless, if this is or is not their intention, they will face a brick wall of opposition when putting their candidate against Obama in '12 barring of course any unforeseen disasters or mistakes.

[BOSSHOG]

10. "Gov't ought not be corrupt"

bobby "toughened up" on ethics legislation but forgot about the enforcement part and Oh he also forgot to "toughen up" on ethics guideliness RELEVANT TO THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE. Tough little sumbitch. Oh and he also has INCREASED THE SIZE OF THE STATE GOVERNMENT SINCE TAKING OFFICE.

[InternalDialogue]

13. I was just going to write that -- the government-corruption thing is the "easy stuff"

Easy stuff to say, that is. Much different to act on.

[specimenfred1984]

11. Poor Piyush

I forgive him, war criminals, torturers, WMD liars and all other GOPig traitors and conspirators because I'm so morally superior to everyone!

[WI_DEM]

17. Steele is an idiot.

[blogslut]

18. Sliwa sure lost his way along the path

Michael Steele is a constant source of schadenfreude. :hi:

[Mojambo]

19. Michael Steele is the anti-Dean when it comes to repairing a broken political party

He's also coming up strong on the outside to try and overtake Alan Keyes as the ultimate crazy black republican.

[Rashel]

21. Wouldn't he be a 'slumlord', ?

[madinmaryland]

23. Steele said "friggin awesome"

:rofl:

[Bluebear]

24. Steele ended the interview by calling Sliwa "PLAYA".

:crazy:
