[StBernard] Jindal for Veep?

Well I'll take that as your feeling that my opinion(s)
(or the "right" to post them here) aren't worth much
these days.

Jerry:  Where did the funds for the Road Home program 
come from?  Where does FEMA get its funds for 
rebuilding infrastructure?  Where does the HUD 
money come from?  Why the Feds and Capitol Hill
and the Congress.

Boasso, as a state senator would have had very little
impact on that funding.  A Congressman or Senator on
the right committees in DC does have that impact.

Jim (who feels that despite Jerry's thoughts on Jim's
2 cents worth of opinions, feels he's entitled to
post them here as long as Westley passes them
through)

	"Clout on the Hill in Congress is based on seniority. The longer
you're
	there the better your chances of getting some plum committee
assignments.
	It's possible Jindal might have been able to do more for Louisiana
by
	staying in the House, being able to direct funds to the state.
	
	Just my opinion and 2 cents worth. --Jim"
	
	**Now, Jim...
	
	It's the flipside of what I expected from Boasso from the start of
his
	switchover. He would have (or continue to have if so) helped St.
Bernard
	Parish further by maintained his Senate position instead of wanting
to bite
	the "apple of desire" as a LA governor. 
	
	We all know that Mr. Boasso is an honorable man (and I won't attempt
to use
	Brutus or Caesar as an example ) and now when St. Bernard Parish
needs
	him, he'll not only probably lose as governor, he'll lose his Senate
	Position and be left with the proceeds earned from the sale of his
business.
	So, now, he'll be able to help with personal loans from his personal
wealth
	>.. Just kiddin', but you know--he must know that the election is
Mr.
	Jindal's to lose. Then we might have a chance of moving forward past
the
	Katrina debacle. 
	
	BTW, where was Mr. Boasso when the first day to qualify for the
governorship
	position. 
	
	Is he contemplating anything we aren't aware? Didn't want to qualify
on the
	same day as his adversaries? Waiting until Today (Wed), Thurs. Fri
or
	perhaps still waiting on polls, etc. to see what the chances or/and
or if
	they have improved? 
	
	At some point, 2 cents worth of opinions aren't worth that much
these days
	and at some point, we'll have to petition the government and its
treasury to
	remove pennies from our coinage.
	
	Lastly, I'm getting sickened by the commercials from both sides.
They're no
	longer funny after it's viewed 2 or 3 hundred times. On both sides
of the
	fence, it's getting petty and insulting to intelligences around the
state.
