Currently Chairman of the Republican Governors Association, Jindal has appeared on several TV talk shows where he was highly critical of the president.
“Part of the frustration with DC is we're not seeing leadership out of the White House. I think you need structural changes. It's not just who is in Congress. Without a balance requirement, you know, they're going to continue to kick the can down the road. Everybody is worried about the debt ceiling,” he told a news channel.
Jindal said nobody wanted a shutdown or a situation where the government isn't paying its bills.
“I think the president needs to show leadership. Last time we had these kinds of intense negotiations, remember when you had a Democratic president/Republican Congress, you got policies, for example, like the welfare reform legislation.
President (Bill) Clinton vetoed that twice but he showed leadership, he found common ground with Congress,” Jindal said.
