Jindal vs. Obama

Expounding on the comparison between Obama’s speech last night and
Jindal’s rebuttal speech would only add to the infinite surplus of
micro-dissection rhetoric between the two speeches. The
micro-dissection has been focused on Obama’s oratory prowess in
contrast to Jindal’s lack of skills at eloquently vomiting deception.
If Obama and Jindal had switched transcripts, Obama would still have
received a roaringly applause–as it is highly suspect that neither he
nor his nescience hordes of invertebrates knew the content of his
barren speech. Grievously, the content of the two speeches was never
compared, which bodes well for a contemporary Democrat.

After watching the two speeches, I hold that only one circumspect
comparison can be valid: this was a contrast of style versus substance.

With a macro-dissection of Obama’s speech regarding the facts he
adopted to clarify his talking points–he lied. His facts can be
invalidated with only a cursory inspection and a calculator. His
sweeping and grandiloquent rhetoric encompassing a fix for every real,
perceived, and possible problem of this country was hollow,
implausible, and outright fabricated. As Obama praised the ability and
resilience of the American people to solve past challenges with their
fortitude and ingenuity, he, in the same breath, declared that the only
salvageable hope of rehabilitating this country’s ailments is through
the rapid expansion of the federal government under his tenure and his
unprecedented economic stratagem.

What I witnessed, again, was a person demonstrating a suspect
intelligence, a suspect set of principles, and an unadulterated
ignorance of American history; what I witnessed, again, was a person
who can take an aggregation of meaningless words, written by someone
else, put them on a teleprompter, and cause an illiterate to swoon.

Bobby Jindal, conversely, is not a practiced orator at the national
level, as witnessed last night. But with a macro-dissection of his
speech, oratory skills aside, Bobby Jindal spoke of an America still
grounded in the principles of the founding fathers: summarizing that
this current government cannot help the American people except by
getting out of the way and facilitating their helping themselves an
approach that is true to the history of this country.

Bobby Jindal may not possess the style of Barack Obama, but he does
possess attributes that Obama does not have, and cannot acquire: he
possesses the competency to lead, as he has demonstrated in Louisiana,
which in the month of December was the only state in the union to add
jobs rather than lose them; and he is a leader of demonstrated
substance.

This country was not founded on style, did not win the Revolutionary
War on style, did not win WWI on style, did not win WWII on style, and
did not become the most powerful nation on this planet based on style;
it was done with substance, the very substance that Barack Obama and
the Democrats in this nation’s congress woefully lack.
