    Pow-ah to the people.

    Takes cajones to admit you're wrong.

    Congratulations to everyone who was outraged, you really made a difference. It turns out Jindal did the will of the people, though he was slow to act. I'm still hoping Jindal can do good things for Louisiana.

    Yea thank God he realized that he was on the wrong side of the issue by stating that he wouldn't do anything. It also appears that someone lost their job over this(resignation) for grossly miscalculating the backlash his "not vetoing" would cause.

    Yeah agreed. Its interesting that the guy "resigned" right before Jindal vetoes the bill.

    i read the articles and thats some fancy talkin trying to explain why he wasnt going to veto originally.

    10's across the board to win the gold in flip-flopping.






    but i too am glad he woke up and realized what a mistake he was making.
