Bwhahahahahahahahha.
Gov. Bobby Jindal would sign a bill requiring presidential candidates to provide a copy of their birth certificate to qualify for the Louisiana ballot if it reaches his desk, a spokesman said Monday.
via Gov. Jindal will sign ‘birther’ bill if it reaches his desk. Guess he’s had enough of the bs.

Thank you, Donald…..

Bobby Jindal is not a nut. If he’s in, you can bet everyone else is as well, no matter what they are saying.

Jindal Rocks!

That is a good thing….but what the hell is with Gov. Brewer of Arizona? She vetoed that bill.

I think she was told to play nice in order to get an invite to the immigration summit. Never trust this guy though. It backfired if this was her thinking?

I was st going to post this info. Thanks, Psstt. Either I’m too naive to understand politics, or I don’t see what the carrot and tick were that Oilsoc’s lawyers used.
No matter. That little slime ball Holder atthe DOJ will tie up proposed eligibility laws for years. Remember, oilsoc hates States Rights.

Holder Syndrome…
She’s owned by Soetero…McCain is so proud of her as he said on his tweet…
I read the legislature can still run around her veto…

I like that…Holder Syndrome.

Between his lukewarm response to Katrina and his complete and utter failure as the repub party response speaker to BHO’s address to congress it was obvious the repubs had no intent to put him up as pres. However, he said recently he would be open to being vp.
Not hard to wonder who he thinks is selected.

Bobby is very bright Nom. That speech rebuttal should be forgotten. That is not his forte. This guy is smart. He knows how to fix things (Medicaid) in his state without screwing up the budget. He’s also not a thug. He knows how to work through the muck. I know this because I know people who worked in the system and watched what he did which was not an easy task. Anyone else would have sold out the Medicaid population al a Huey Long.

He is, in the main, a garden variety winger.
He supported the Patriot Act, Real ID act, and the Military Commissions Act.
He’s against abortion even to save the life of the mother. He’s against gay marriage and supported a constitutional amendment to prohibit gay marriage.
He allows schools to teach so-called intelligent design alongside evolution.
He is pro nuclear energy and wind energy (T Boone Pickens is his buddy).
On the plus side, he (supposedly) has the brains to realize the coast of LA needs to be restored, but on the minus he is so stupid he promotes the use of unlimited sand berms to (supposedly) contain the BP oil spill although the berms are harmful to the environment (haitats) and don’t capture the oil. http://news.yahoo.com/s/yblog_thelookout/20101216/ts_yblog_thelookout/panel-jindal-sand-berm-project-was-a-colossal-waste-of-time-and-money
I’ll take a big pass on that kind of “smart” thx.

I prefer Bobby to anyone that LA has had. You might not like him, but those that have worked with him feel differently. when it comes to smarts, he has the goods. You can disagree.
April 20, 2011 at 7:39 pm
Come on Nom, he is no dictator. His state was demanding some action. He didn’t sit there until the polls said move. Nice Monday night quarterbacking on that article. I’m sure it felt good to be paid to write that posting. I have to wonder if that person understands what if feels like to feel helpless? Not only did the state get Katrina, but then this. As an elected official, I would have demanded that something be tried.

“I prefer Bobby to anyone that LA has had.”
I prefer Bobby to anyone that LA has had. That’s not saying much however.

As I said, you are welcome to have your opinion. Many of us do not feel this way.
April 21, 2011 at 8:55 am
What would you have done? How would you or anyone else have handled Katrina any differently when control was out of his hands? This was a horrific event that was never prepared for, just like the nuclear facility ticking time bombs that sit on faults in CA. One problem that I see is that people in general like things to go happy and smooth (I do too), but we do need some reality. We have a lot of infrastructure that is going bad. We only take care of issues after they have gone to Hell in handbasket. That is human nature. Curmudgeons like myself are voices that most government officials pass off as “crying wolf” too often.

If I had ever been in charge, I would never have allowed for the draining and removal of all the wetlands and marshes prior to Katrina: there wouldn’t have been the kind of damage that occurred. And I have been at advocate of prohibiting destruction of wetlands for years, no, DECADES before Katrina. This is not a position I reached after Katrina occurred. There are some areas where it is stupid to allow people to develop, and this is one of them.
And as governor, I would never have accepted a budget that didn’t address the goddamn problem.
The claim that I’d have overlooked this situation is not a charge one can fairly put on me mcnorman, because the environment is and always has been my number one political concern.
April 21, 2011 at 7:39 pm
I ask because much of what has happened to NO is precisely because of what was done decades ago. Altering what Mother Nature had created was unwise imo.

it’s also a problem in perception. there is no plan to work to alter perception either, and this is perhaps the greater shortfall.
