Hey, La. Republicans: Jump Ship

Your Right Hand Thief finds an example of some Louisiana Republicans striking fear in the heart of the White House. Or not.

It's time for the Louisiana Republicans to jump ship. Not from the Republican Party to the Democratic Party. From the President to Louisiana.

Serve your state, not this President. You are accountable to us Louisianians. I didn't vote for you, but you represent me and my friends and my family. Do it.

Jumping ship candidates:

Sen. David Vitter
Rep. Bobby Jindal, District 1
Rep. Jim McCrery, District 4
Rep. Rodney Alexander, District 5
Rep. Richard Baker, District 6
Rep. Charles Boustany, Jr., District 7
Current state Republican office holders and former
The Republican leaders in the state

For the most part, they all have one leg overboard. Now it's time to do a Triple Lindy (AVI file) off the plank.

Make bold statements that show you put Louisianians first.

NOTE: I am neither a Republican nor a Democrat. I tend to vote Green or Independent. None of the people I vote for are ever elected. Does that make me a loser?

I dunno...Vitter and Jindal kinda sounded apologetic for the SOTU, and I heard Jindal on Garland Robinette's show explaining why HE didn't support the Baker Bill.

Garland, in his Garlandesque polite way, ripped him a new one.

Baker was on tv tonight, and he sounded really angry at Powell, especially for writing an op ed dishing his proposal.
However, he indicated also that the very fact of the op ed means the White House is worried the bill still has life in it.

Great posts the last few days especially, dpg.

If you're a loser for voting green or indy, you've got great company. And then there's me, who votes that way too.
