GOP Governors Get a Dose of Stimulus Reality 

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

From Politico.com a week ago:

"The list of governors threatening to decline federal stimulus money last month read like a list of Republicans considering running for president in 2012: Govs. Mark Sanford, Bobby Jindal and Sarah Palin led the anti-stimulus charge.

But what began with a bang is ending with something closer to a whimper. All three of those governors have been forced to scale back their expectations, to varying degrees, as the push of conservative philosophy gave way to the pull of political reality.

All three found that praise from the conservative movement in Washington meant nothing to furious state legislators of both parties. And in the end, along with other conservative Republican governors, the three submitted letters in recent days asking to be eligible for federal funds, a spokesman for the White House Office of Management and Budget confirmed."

F-cking clowns! Click here for the full article.

Is Bobby Jindal the new Mr. Rogers? 



Why was he talking like that (or was it like Kenneth the Page from 30 Rock?) during his official Republican response to President Obama's address last night? Like we're toddlers??
