Gee, it really pains me that the Republicans' whack-a-mole at "the next superstar" selection just isn't working as intended, gosh golly gee.
Piyush Jindal going around his state handing Christmas gifts to groups funded by the socialist stimulus monies and at the same time rejecting it saying it has not stimulated. Jindal also requested federal stimulus funding for a rail line between Baton Rouge and New Orleans after attacking the stimulus bill's investment in high-speed rail. But somehow, in spite of terrible government intervention, "things in Louisiana are looking up." How did that happen? It might have something to do with the millions of dollars in stimulus money that went to the state. Jindal must know about it, because he's been handing it out all over, in giant-check form.
The state of Louisiana was on the stimulus gravy train before it was current Stimulus Plan was even in existence. It is a fact that Louisiana year in and year out, has been closer to the top 10 recipients of federal handouts and their trend is not a factor of recent hurricanes. What are the Democrats doing in his home state while Gov. J tries to hog credit? After all, he sees Rush as an intellectual and one of the smartest guys around. That is, he embraces contradiction. This is almost as upsetting as when I found out my favorite mailman wasn't personally writing my tax refund check. Y'all come on down to Bobby J's Cash & Bash, where we got all money, money you want and need .. yee-ha!
You liked Hillary? Here, have Sarah Palin.
You like Obama? Well, you like diversity? Heeeeeere's Bobby!
I shudder to think what their versions of a gay and a smart will be.
They rag on the "printing presses cranking out money" out one side of their mouths, and assure all the people with pet projects in the audience, their program might be in line for stimulus money. Business as usual.
Dems save all this info, it will come handy soon.

You wanted to know where our money is going. Red states feed at federal trough, blue states supply the feed. Of course, this will go on deaf ears.
Republican states sure are benefiting from socialist ideas, huh?
Can you spell "hypocrite," Bobby? Happy Mardi Gras!
I wanna see his birth certificate.
Great letter, Janet.
