Louisiana gets what it deserves

The only upside to Bobby Jindal being elected to being governor of Louisiana is that perhaps i can finally stop hearing about what a big brain he has in a year or two. Has anyone looked at his voting record as a representative? There is no evidence of a keen intellect there, just a yes-man in over his head.

Then again, every time i look at him, i think of the Smiler from Transmetropolitan. His supporters make the same vapid points about him as well.

Louisiana would probably re-elect Bush if given the opportunity.

I miss Huey Long. Really and truly. Me and my loved ones need to get the hell out of this self-loathing sewer drain, the septic tank of America, post haste.

political gain & Vitter

So Jindal says regarding the Vitter nonsense:

“This is a matter for the senator to address, and it is our hope that this is not used by others for their own political gain.”

Really? You hope that, eh?

Jindal, you sanctimonious, deceitful little shit...

The Republican party used Katrina and the destruction of New Orleans for their own political gain. Jindal stood by twiddling his thumbs while Bush and Cheney let the city drown. People died for their inaction in their attempt to punish non-Republican voters., and shame the elected Democratic officials of Louisiana (who admittedly didn't do themselves any favors either.)

If the Democratic party does not take advantage of of the fact that Vitter cannot keep from cramming his penis into every hooker in between New Orleans and DC, then they have completely failed.

It's been bugging me a lot that some Democrats are saying that we have bigger issues to worry about, as if i don't know that. Their highminded arrogance has them unable to grasp that the reason why the White House is now in the position to ignore Congressional subpoenas is because, right or wrong, they fought every single battle that they could, because no matter how incompetent they are regarding foreign policy and other matters, they understood that every scrap of power they accumulated was going to pay off in shielding them later.

Jindal sucks

The Right Hand Thief explains why. I never can properly articulate why i find him to be slimy. I need to memorize this, to point to specific actions, so i'm not left with this lame, vague, "He's creepy," explanation. Very few people seem to be aware of his claims that he has been in combat with a literal demon, which is always the first thing i can remember, but perhaps the weakest argument.

I'd comment more, but i gotta go to jury duty over in Amite... which i'm a little excited about... civic duty and all...
