Defecation Hits Impeller Splattering McCain VP Hopeful Jindal

June 29th, 2008 • Richard Cochrane

DuckToo Late“People don’t like hypocrisy, and they like somebody with guts.”

Louisiana’s part-time lawmakers passed a pay raise for themselves, more than doubling their salary from $16,800 to $37,500 and the defecation has hit the impeller with thousands of angry letters and emails flooding into state offices, exposing several Legislators who are subjects of recall campaigns, and splattering Governor Bobby Jindal (R) from head to toe because he has resisted vetoing it.

Jindal, who ran partly on a “no pay raise” pledge, is being devastated and it could cost him his chance to be McCain VP designee as the political conflagration spreads over what some are calling his hypocrisy.

Conservative talk-radio host Moon Griffon. Says “I’ve gotten over 5,000 e-mails from people who say they voted for him (Jindal), and who say they would never vote for him again.” He added, “People don’t like hypocrisy, and they like somebody with guts.”
