I know Tom Robertson and he’s a friend of mine. He knows whereof he speaks about Jindal.
Yes, he’s done a decent enough job as a supposed conservative here in Louisiana. But it wasn’t because Jindal has deep-down conservative convictions.
Jindal did the conservative thing because there were some folks - talk radio host Moon Griffon chief among them - who stood over him with a baseball bat and MADE him do it.
Your “friend” needs to get a grip on what being a “conservative” is. Maybe he should go back and read Goldwater. To complain because a governor cut spending on education and health care and then call himself a conservative....
Look, you tell you bud-bud there that if budgets are EVER gonna be balanced health care and education will endure cuts.
Conservatives don’t COMPLAIN about cuts. They demand more.
As I said upthread, Jindal IS NOT the real deal. He is a Big-Government Republican.
You too have been warned.
