LOL, no, sorry, that's a very generous reporting of the "clarification". It was a totally misleading, made-up representation of his place and role in the intial rescue efforts. And a really, really stupid move for him and his team. Who the crap is advising the Republicans these days? For the love of god!

His point didn't seem to be about his participation to me when I recently watched a clip. He seems to be stressing that government solutions to problems are sometimes more of a hindrance than a help, which as long as the story involving Lee and the boats is accurate and I haven't seen any claims that it isn't, Jindal's direct participation is kind of incidental.

Sure, it would have been more accurate to say, "a few days after Katrina I heard a story from Sheriff Lee about bureaucrats limiting the rescue. Sheriff Lee said that a few days before. . . " but when Jindal heard about it seems pretty unimportant to the overall point to me.

Yes. Clearly this is the first time this has happened. Thank God we had all those snipers in Sarajevo to protect Hilary.

And she got called on it. That's my point.
