Jindal Touches The Third Rail

Today at 11:00 AM CDT Governor Jindal, shortly after the latest poll showed that the Governor Jindal’s approval rating had fallen to 40%, Governor Jindal announced to the press that he was vetoing the legislator’s pay raises.

The voter's writing has been on every wall in Louisiana, but the Governor Jindal blithely ignored their messages. Instead he stammered and stuttered inane reasons for not vetoing the legislator's pay raise from Shreveport, to Ruston, to Baton Rouge.

Finally, when the polling information reached his desk, Governor Jindal ran for cover, just the way he did when he was running Health and Hospitals and when he was running The Board of Trustees for State Colleges and Universities. Without his patrons, Mike Foster and John Breaux, when he was on his own, Governor Jindal touched the third rail.
