There's just no end to it....

[river rat]

If they are no longer residents, why should they continue the myth that these "good citizens" will return to NO?

OH, I forgot --- they are the ignorant bastards that keep voting to stay on the Democrat plantation..

Semper Fi

[Neville72]

Totally dysfunctional state

18 days and I'm outa here.

(from article)He said the special session should be halted because lawmakers had been ignoring and wrongly rejecting bills aimed at helping the poor and displaced.

They wanted to leave. They left. Looks to me like they got their way.

He condemned his colleagues for rejecting a bill that would have made it easier for displaced Hurricane Katrina victims, now living far from home, to cast ballots for New Orleans mayor in April.

Translation: the black neighborhoods of NO elected these state legislators. And if a Republican gets elected to NO, there will be difficulty in mounting the kind of vote fraud that is needed

If they ain't livin' there, they shouldn't be votin' there.

[Thombo2]

"There's just no end to it."I agree,and the people pay the consequences.When they walked out they should have locked the doors behind them:)

Patent, clumsy attempt at voter fraud.......laid out in the open for all to see.

I've lived all over the U.S. in my years. When I left Merced, Davis, or Citrus Heights,CA........or Colorado Springs.......or Abilene, Lubbock, or Austin, TX...or Huntsville, AL......or Ocala, FL........or....................pick your town, I did NOT ever expect to then vote for candidates in those towns, or in those States.

Black lawmakers, especially black Democratic Party lawmakers, are the worst of the lot. They belong in tinpot dictatorships in Africa where such behavior is the norm, NOT in MY United States of America.

God how I loathe these scum.

I occasionally listen to Moon Griffon via the internet. Moon is all over Louisana politics, and it sounds like the La. 'rats want to pass a law that basically states that if you live in La now, used to live in La, or if you ever wanted to live in Louisana, all you have to do is send a request stating such and they would send you a ballot.

I was born and raised in Baton Rouge, graduated from LSUSD in New Orleans in 1976. I left to join the USAF the same year and have not lived there since. I think I should be able to vote too. What's the time limit for living outside the state and still having voting rights there?? I feel like my rights are being violated, I'm a victim!!!

18 days and I'm outa here.

Good luck to you! I left Louisiana as well....

[daybreakcoming]

I think there are enough Republicans who have left that state over the years to swing the vote if that's the case.:o)

[daybreakcoming]

Are they going to run across the state line like the Texas demos did? Will Blanco send the National Guard after them? How much popcorn will we need for this show?

[Sunnyflorida]

I had oysters at the Acme half dozen times, can I vote.

[stuckinloozeeana]

i have 22 months

[Sunnyflorida]

"Will Blanco send the National Guard after them?'

She does not believe in using the National Guard. Its against her principles.

[daybreakcoming]

She does not believe in using the National Guard. Its against her principles.

Betcha Landreiu will. She owns them. They represent her base. On the other hand, they may be following her instructions. Got to be a way to keep them on her plantation.

There is no doubt now that Louisiana is bent on showing it's worst side to the world. A shame for the good folks in the state.

[daybreakcoming]

And if Baton Rouge doesn't have enough problems - Cindy is in town speaking at a Unitarian church. Blue Star Mothers of Louisiana are across the street with a Support The Troops Rally. Car horns honking in agreement with them can be heard inside the church. heh heh
