Video of Jimmy Fallon Comparing Bobby Jindal to Kenneth the Page

Internet Compares Gov. Jindal to 30 Rock's Kenneth the Page

February 26, 2009

Yet another 30 Rocker has taken on the Republicans. I almost hope Louisiana's governor, Bobby Jindal, stays in the spotlight so we can see more of Jack McBrayer's (aka Kenneth the page) imitation. (Besides, Jindal's exorcism story hasn't even hit the mainstream yet.) Check out "Jack McBrayer's response to the Internet response to the Republican response to the President's address to Congress" in this preview clip from Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.

Oh my I didn't stick around to hear Jindal speak. That was really bad. It was like a cross between a Barney episode and a DARE (or is it SANE now) video. Yeah, he's going to have to change that if he wants any chance in politics. Most people don't like feeling like they're being lectured to...especially when that lecture sounds like it's intended for an elementary school audience.

Nope. They didn't. I am merely atating my opinion about the bearing that the exorcism has on Jindal's Presidential aspirations.

But no one did say it was a reasonable reason to call someone unfit for office.

Argh. For example, I do not believe Charlie Rangel is fit to hold office. My bad.

I didn't say anything confusing... I could go on and on with my opinions about behaviors that I believe make people unfit to hold positions of power in the US. For example, I do not believe Charlie Rangel is not fit to hold office. I digress... my main point was originally that witnessing, writing about, and believing in an exocrism isn't a reasonable reason to call someone unfit for office in my book.

'work closely with terrorists' Wha? I love 30 Rock and Kenneth, he is truly adorable and funny.

... which is why I try not to be sarcastic when posting. I belive Jindal is fit to be a US politician. I do not believe that politicians who evade their taxes, abuse their political clout, or work closely with terrorists should be allowed in positions of power.

You'll have to ask Kranky, she seems to think it makes Jindal clearly unfit for office. I just said I can't wait for the article to go mainstream.

what is wrong with witnessing an exorcism?

"There's more. And you're jumping to conclusions about 'unfit for office'. " I read the essay in the New Oxford Review. There isn't anything more. I am not jumping to any conclusion, I am forming an opinion.

"I can't wait until the exorcism story does hit the mainstream... " Is there more to this story than is written in the article and THEN the TWO articles referenced afterward? Apparently, Jindal witnessed an exorcism when he was in high school. Scandal. Sure, he didn't break any of the laws or ideals that we expect our politicans to uphold. Like, paying their taxes, not using their political clout to receive benefits like sweetheart loans, or buy their congressional seats. But, you know, he's clearly unfit for office, right?

This was hilarious. But Jimmy Fallon isn't going to last long if he can't figure out how to read the teleprompter and look at the camera at the same time.
