Bobby "Stop Being The Party Of Stupid" Jindal Defends "Duck" Via Miley Cyrus

La. Gov. Bobby Jindal back when he was the GOP savior
Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal, who famously blasted federal funding for volcano monitoringjust days before a volcano eruption in covered Sarah Palin's home town in ash, had a message for Republicans earlier this year:
Stop being the stupid party.
And now, one year later, Jindal has weighed in on A&E's decision to suspend Duck Dynastystar Phil Robertson for making crude homophobic comments in a GQ interview, saying that Robertson and his family are "great citizens of the state of Lousiana" and:
I remember when TV networks believed in the First Amendment. It is a messed up situation when Miley Cyrus gets a laugh, and Phil Robertson gets suspended.
I'm not about to defend Miley Cyrus as a musician or performer, but if Bobby Jindal can't tell the difference between getting your First Amendment rights violated and getting suspended from a TV show, or the difference between someone promoting sales of a music album and someone starring on an advertiser-supported TV show, or the difference between raunchiness and bigotry, well, then he should take his own advice, and stop being stupid.
