The Nation has a must read article about Bobby Jindal called The Jindal Mystique. At first, when you start reading it, you might think “what are you talking about, this sounds like another Jindal fluff piece”. But once you think that this article will just be a “lets praise the wunderkind”, they throw a very […]

The advisory council appointed by Bobby Jindal to suggest ethics reform has completed its suggestions.
