Here's the link to Rush's interview (from the Limbaugh Letter):

Bobby Jindal Interview (PDF)

My dad’s heart doctor is an Indian Christian. He is an amazing conservative and I enjoy talking with him when I take my dad to the doctor. He likes to gab like me and we can talk for hours.

Another Republican “star”. I'm tired of the media presenting everything like an episode of “American Idol”. And besides McCain has made it clear he will choose a VP who shares his positions. In other words, one of his own blighted kind. A RINO or worse.

Jindahl has no interest in VP. Not now...he knows and says he’s got a once in a lifetime chance to put LA on track. He’s flattered, but not now.

A policy wonk and Rhodes scholar who graduated from Oxford University, Jindal was appointed secretary of Louisiana's health department at age 24. Three years later he was handed the helm of the state's higher education system after being tapped by President George W. Bush to head a national commission on medical insurance reform.

And now Governor and was a Congressman, so he has MORE EXPERIENCE in RUNNING things than ALL the candidates!! Go Bobby!!! Good thing he didn't pick Marsha!

Did his family also convert to Catholicism or just him?

I saw him on a news program the other day while my wife and I were half watching. Now she has turned back to her dem roots and has become a Hillary supporter, but we were discussing when a minority would become President and coming across the Jindall interview I remarked to her that if he can follow through and turn that corrupt state of Louisiana around then he will be the President in 2016.

[Kirkwood]

The thing I like about Bobby is that he backs up everything he says with clear supporting evidence so you can see his reasoning. He is not the type to throw out empty promises or make stupid speeches that say nothing, but sound good. He is a straight talker, a straight shooter, and has common-sense smarts.

[Kirkwood]

“Right now, he should make good on his promise to clean up Louisiana.”

Louisiana went from a ranking of around 45 to a ranking of #1 for political ethics after Bobby’s ethics initiatives were passed into law. He is already making a big difference.

[Fishing-guy]

Hope he does a good job in Louisiana. He is definitely a rising star in the Republican party.

Jindal 2012!
