“I ask that you exercise your discretion to approve the State’s pending request for all emergency protective measures. Further, I ask that you consider a cost-share adjustment to eliminate the State’s non-federal share of the costs for this event. When threatened with extraordinary disasters, states depend upon the availability of the full spectrum of assistance available under the Stafford Act.
…A core responsibility of the federal government is to protect the lives and property of its citizens when threatened.”
–Gov. Piyush Jindal, lecturing President Obama on his decision to limit the Hurricane Isaac emergency declaration only to direct federal assistance.
Louisiana Voice 
HA! I can picture Jindal on his hands and knees begging.
Winnsboro is in north Louisiana. Waynesboro is in Tangipahoa Parish. If the governor and his staff spent more time in Louisiana they would know this.
His press conferences are awful! How fast can I read this grocery list? Seriously, is there any useful or usable information in them at all? Or is it all just political onanism?
