#1 ...Pity he didn't think to set aside all of it for Katrina repairs/upgrades, then remind people that Bambi didn't reserve a dime for it.

#2 Jindal is correct but politically it is going to hurt him a lot. On the other hand, there are still job openings around here, and our housing prices never went through the roof, and thus have not cratered, so our local mortgage industry is still solvent, etc. If you don't mind hurricanes and (incompetent) crooked politicians, it's really not a bad place to live right now. And the food and music are still great.

#5 Is it $98 mil or $65mil?

Either way, for that much cash, Jindal should be calling out Landrieu for being an incompetent cheapskate. As a Demoporker, the best she could get for her state was 1% of Porkulus?
