the first Indian (India) American to be a Gov of any state, in his case the State of LA. As well versed as our half-white President.

He is the governor of New Orleans (the first Indian, from India, I believe, voted into office). And he is saying, "Americans can do anything..." which we can, but he is referring to things like universal health care. IF "Americans" could solve the problem by themselves, the problem wouldn't be here. Corporate America doesn't allow it. He is so fucking simplistic and ideological it makes me wanna puke. And, he sounds he completely insincere. He actually said earlier this week he wouldn't accept federal money in the stimulus plan for extended unemployment benefits for the people in his state.

Quite a few states said that they would not accept some of the money from the stimulus package. They should be applauded. Have you read the details of their reasons. They are quite valid.

yes, they are all republican and they are NOT looking out for the best interest's of the people who elected them. They should look to Charlie Christ and Arnold for inspirations and TRUTH. Did you see them this weekend on Meet the Press and George Stephanopoulis?

In fact, his reason for not accepting the unemployment insurance extension funds in the stimulus bill is completely baseless and purely political.

Which is why when Jindal was in Congress in 2005, he co-sponsored a bill with a provision to extend federal unemployment benefits to workers who lost jobs due to Katrina for up to one year.

Now that he wants to be a potential presidential candidate for 2012..its time to play to the base and oppose a provision in the stimulus bill that would extend unemployment benefits for up to 20 weeks.

Can you say hypocrite?

I don't believe you can back that up, since he is actually a Gov and you are a nameless faceless collection of 1's and 0's. But anyway SC and GA gov are talking about the same thing. The spending package for the states come with strings attached. Among those strings are the fact that they would be required to open up the pool of people who are actually eligible for aid and in the long run that would make the problem worse since the money being offered would not cover the long term costs. So yea, they are right. I would turn it down too and I hope our Gov does so.

One of the few states to actually be gaining jobs.

I don't think I heard him say we were going to cure cancer this year.

I don't think Obama said this year either mate.
