The Loosie legislaters tried to trick the young gov into not only raising their pay but shooting himself in the political foot.
The jaded old farts told the gov he ain’t getten’ nothin’ through without greasin’ their skids and he almost fell for it.
Fortunatly,at the last moment,he pulled out his copy of,”Doing The Will Of America” or “How I Slapped And Ignored Elected Idiots” By Ronald Reagan—THEN he came to Jesus.
Gov. Jindal has a BIG future and,IMHO,would be a top notch VP pick.
But McCain’s a jerk so I ain’t holdin’ my breath.

If Bobby Jindal pisses you off this much, I can only imagine your furor at a proven RINO like Juan MeCain.

Will you be staying home in November?

Maybe a write-in?

What is it with you people? Nowhere in this thread have I commented or opined one whit. I’ve merely posted news stories, links and headlines. This is a hot issue here in Louisiana and it’s newsworthy.

Now to answer your question, no I’m not happy with McCain. I don’t trust him as far as I can throw him. But I will vote for him, just as I did for Bobby Jindal. And this may come as a shock, but I’ll probably vote for Jindal again if he runs for re-election.

But I’ll never trust him again. Never.

Yea, and MSNBC merely reports news stories.

The more you all bellyache and whine, the more I will post. There’s plenty of news stories and blogs talking about this.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I just don't know how I got the impression you were actively promoting the recall of Bobby Jindal.

Just maybe from the website you promote where I see you people indeed filed a recall petition June 27.

The recall petition has been dropped. The intent of my JindalWatch® threads was to inform (which it did), to chastise Jindal for stabbing us in the back (he seemed chastened yesterday), and to convince him to veto the pay raise (which he did). I’m satisfied.

But I don’t trust him any more and will watch every move he makes.

And as far as some of the legislators who started this, there are some scores yet to be settled.

Rule number one in politics: Don’t get mad, get even.
