Time Magazine: Blanco One of Three Worst Governors (Blanko's Response)
WAFB ^ | Nov 15, 2005, 12:09 PM CST

Posted on 11/15/2005 11:51:35 AM PST by CajunConservative

Governor Blanco had a three-word response to a stinging designation she's received in a major national news magazine. Questioned by reporters at the capitol today, blanco told them, "Watch my results" and then she walked off.

Time magazine has declared Blanco one of the three worst governors in the nation. The magazine quotes pollster Bernie Pinsonat who describes Blanco as appearing "dazed and confused" after Hurricane Katrina. Time hits blanco for slowness in calling a special legislative session, and slowness in appointing a recovery commission.

At the bottom with Blanco is Ohio governor Bob Taft and Mark Sanford of South Carolina. Who's the best on the Time magazine list? It cites Arkansas's governor Mike Huckabee, whom the magazine describes as "a consensus building conservative."

At least she remained sober, and wasn't described as tired and emotional.

Of course it's Bush's fault that she is at the bottom of the list. If HE had done things differently she probably would have been Number 1. (sarcasm off)

Been dazed and confused for so long, it’s not true,
Wanted a woman, never bargained for you.
Take it easy baby, let them say what they will.
Will your tongue wag so much when I send you the bill?

I never like to have my blood sugar below 120. If I turn up 104 it's usually a glass of OJ for me.

This sad case finally gets the recognition that she deserves!
This poor thing tried to blame Bush for her uselessness.
Finally it backfired!
