Moderator Michael Steele sits in the chair on the right, facing Governor Bobby Jindal, who sits in the chair on the left. The two men lean forward.

Steele: And now, Governor, it's down to our final question! Here is the situation:
Banks are losing billions of dollars because homeowners are unable to make their mortgage payments.
The Big 3 automakers are losing billions of dollars, partly because they have to pay enormous amounts of health insurance premiums for their employees and their retirees.
The country is paying billions of dollars to foreign countries for crude oil.

And the question is, ?How should we solve these problems??

Here are your choices:

A) Refinance mortgages at lower interest rates.
B) Initiate a universal, national health care system.
C) Subsidize research into alternative fuel sources, mass transit systems, and infrastructure improvements.
D) Cut taxes.


And what is your answer, Governor? A, B, C, or D?

Would you like to phone a friend?

Jindal: I don't need to call anyone. The answer is easy. It's D--Cut taxes!!!


DING DING DING DING

Steele: THAT'S RIGHT!! D ---- CUT TAXES !!!!

Congratulations, Governor! You are our big winner! You get to give the Republican Party's response to the presidential address to Congress!!!!!!!

And what now, Governor?

Jindal: I'M GOING TO DISNEY WORLD !!!!!
