Listen to Jindal. You can here the passion and sincerity in the tone of his voice. His words aren't rolling off a teleprompter. They are genuine and the signs of real leadership, the signs of someone who has executive experience.
The border that divides the District of Columbia from surrounding Virginia and Maryland has the shape of an incomplete diamond. In other words, it's broken, and it makes for the perfect analogy of how the Federal and local government in Washington is broken. This blog exits to play a small part in scratching, clawing, and clinging to the freedoms that make this country better than any other in the world.

Leadership Defined in the Gulf
After two months of BP's deep water well still leaking oil, Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal has been working himself to the bone to stop or even just slow the oil from encroaching on his state's shorelines and clean up the oil already washing up there. At every turn, the federal government and Barack Obama have thwarted his efforts. It's one thing for the administration's cold indifference to the consequences of this spill, but it's sinks to a rotten level when it stands in the way of cleanup and prevention and then uses the tragedy to push their anti-domestically obtained fossil fuel agenda.
