Jindal shows his where his loyalties lie.
Posted: Jun 9, 2014
Luisana Gov. Bobby Jindal signed a bill Friday to quash a landmark lawsuit brought by a local flood protection agency that sought damages from the oil and gas industry to restore the state’s vanishing coastline.
Jindal signed the legislation -- which prevents government bodies in Louisiana from pursuing such litigation -- despite warnings from the state attorney general and nearly 100 legal experts. Critics of the law say it is so broad it could potentially imperil hundreds of other lawsuits against oil and gas companies, including litigation against BP for its role in the 2010 Gulf oil spill.
“I am proud to sign it into law,” Jindal said in a statement, calling the litigation “frivolous." The Republican said the law "further improves Louisiana’s legal environment by reducing unnecessary claims that burden businesses so that we can bring even more jobs to our state.”
The bill was one of at least seven championed this year by the Jindal administration's legislative allies to kill coastal-damage lawsuits brought by state agencies against the oil and gas industry, a pillar of Louisiana’s economy and a powerful force in its politics.

Jindal Disqualifies HimselfJun 27, 2015
Presidential hopeful Bobby Jindal has made it clear that he is not qualified for the position, and even the most ardent conservative should agree. While complaining today about the SCOTUS decision making gay marriage legal, Jindal suggested "If we want to save some money lets just get rid of the court." This demonstrates without a doubt that Jindal neither understands nor respects the US Constitution, and that he is utterly unworthy to serve this country in any political capacity. ...

"Who Killed American Unions?" Powerful Graph Shows Shows Middle Class IncomeJan 17, 2013
From The Atlantic: "Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker doesn't like unions, and unions don't like him. But the most remarkable thing about Walker's relationship to labor isn't that he thinks unions are worthless -- most Republicans agree -- but that he thinks about them, at all. Today, unions have been swept into dusty corners of the U.S. workforce, such as Las Vegas casino cleaners and New York City hotel staff. For much of the 20th century, things were different. A ...

Poll Of NRA Members Shows 74% SupportDec 15, 2012

Although the Brady law requires background checks be conducted by commercial gun dealers, at least 40% of gun sales (last study 15 years old) are private sales not involving background checks.

All her shows have some sort of fun theme and she just looks like she really enjoys herself. I also love her ranch, her family, and her life-style in general. A very comforting show about simple pleasures of family and good food. My least favorite is Trisha's Southern Kitchen. I have seen her cook with Paula, and I enjoyed her then, but when she spun ...

From Discover Magazine, by Chris Mooney The New York Times just ran an oped by social scientists Robert Putnam and David Campbell, reporting on polling results about the Tea Party.

The watershed platform of 1980 introduces tax cuts and an increasingly critical attitude toward government. “The Republican Party declares war on governm ...
