Jindal slams Obama's oil spill response - Hindustan Times

The Republicans are not done with President Barack Obama. The Republican governor of Louisiana, Bobby Jindal, has in a new book accused the president of caring more about his personal image than the well being of the people. The White House has lost touch with reality, he added. The criticism is a standard one of Obama, turned into a major campaign plank by Republicans during the recent elections, wresting control of the House of Representative with an overwhelming majority.

On his first visit to the state, the governor writes, President Obama pulled him aside on the tarmac and expressed displeasure over a letter sent by Jindal earlier requesting permission to issue food stamps to those rendered jobless by the spill.
