This really isn’t that shocking of a news story: The office of Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal filed a friend of the court brief in federal court Monday supporting the removal of President Barack Obama’s six-month deepwater drilling moratorium. A federal judge is scheduled to hear arguments Monday from companies seeking an end to the moratorium. […]
From USA Today: Oil spill could sink Obama’s offshore drilling plan If there was ever a silver lining to something so horrible, this is it. But at what costs?

This whole ACORN thing is really something worthy of a new blockbuster movie. This part here would serve as some comic relief during it: Then there’s the man who bills himself as “the Senate’s most outspoken critic of ACORN,” Sen. David Vitter, R-Louisiana.

Well it’s because of this: In a year when national Republican fortunes took a turn for the worse, Louisiana delivered the GOP two seats in Congress in elections delayed by Hurricane Gustav.
