Gunga Dim's False Bravado

Now that the Republican Governors of Arkansas and Indiana have grudgingly backed away (of now) from overt discrimination laws aimed at the LGBT community in their states, who will rally to the cause of bigotry and raise their tattered banner?  Who did you say?  Piyush "Bobby" Jindal?  The failed Governor of Louisiana, amateur exorcist and cross between 30 Rock's Kenneth and Howdy Doody?  That Piyush "Bobby" Jindal?

In a New York Times op-ed today, "Bobby" wants us to know that he'll put his size 6 shoe down and stop big business and the gays from destroying bigots' right to discriminate religious freedom through same-sex marriage and businesses that deny service to LGBT people.  Here's "Bobby's" challenge:

"As the fight for religious liberty moves to Louisiana, I have a clear message for any corporation that contemplates bullying our state: Save your breath."

"Bobby" doesn't get that, depending on where you go in this country, and if you were just plain Piyush Jindal, you might get denied service or worse by your own political soul mates, who could find your Hindu ancestry offensive to their "religious freedom."  Here's hoping that he remains stubborn, right up until the time that major businesses, the Rethug donor class, and the public make him eat his words.
