Bobby Jindal: No Life in Louisiana Marshes

Posted on June 3, 2010

Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal says there is no life at all in the marshes in Louisiana anymore. There are not even any bugs. Bobby Jindal says, "You hear nothing. You hear absolutely nothing. The silence is deafening. Every fisherman knows this time of year you should be putting insect repellent all over yourself to fight the bugs. You should be seeing marine life teeming in that marsh. There is nothing out there. There are no bugs out there. There's no marine life out there. It is absolutely still. You cut the engines on your boat and it is the most deafening silence you have ever heard." Jindal's comments start around 1:17 in the clip. Take a look:
