This is my thought as well. It forces the more responsible of the countries to do business with crooks. They will eventually get tired of it when...
Most of my friends are college educated and middle class. All grew up conservative other than a few. The ******* factor is really wearing on them...
My main problem with Jindal isn't his k-12 education cuts, its that he has an oil state that had consistently high oil prices over the last budget...
I'm not worried about him being president. I'm worried about him being governor of Louisiana. I wouldn't vote for that guy for dog catcher.
