Comments on: Whiney Mike and Whiney Jindal are Whiney Hypocrites! http://www.jindalisbad.com/whiney-mike-and-whiney-jindal-are-whiney-hypocrites/ Learn the truth about Bobby Jindal Thu, 08 Jan 2009 12:02:47 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.5 by: savela1 http://www.jindalisbad.com/whiney-mike-and-whiney-jindal-are-whiney-hypocrites/#comment-9726 Sat, 13 Oct 2007 18:55:47 +0000 http://www.jindalisbad.com/whiney-mike-and-whiney-jindal-are-whiney-hypocrites/#comment-9726 Is this another Jefferson? Is the payment just hidden as a campaign contribution? Only one day after Bobby Jindal launched an unprovoked attack on Independent candidate John Georges for operating a legal business, the Baton Rouge Advocate has reported Jindal accepting $50,000 in a single day from people with ties to an out-of-state company trying to do business with the state. “A Colorado-based company is making a new push to open a landfill near Alsen, and the group donated heavily to U.S. Rep. Bobby Jindal’s campaign for governor,” the Advocate reports on page A-1 of today’s edition. The article names Louisiana Land Systems, a Colorado-based landfill company, which tried to open an industrial waste site north of Baton Rouge in 2000. Local leaders and citizens successfully fought off the effort, but now the company is making a move to try again. The story also says executives of the company made $50,000 in donations to Jindal’s campaign only last Monday. “This $50,000 is just one example of out-of-state contractors buying influence in Louisiana,” Georges said. “Jindal does not deserve a second chance if we cannot trust his actions to match his words.” In his most recent television ad, Jindal attacks Georges for having owned a company that distributed video poker machines, even though Georges sold the company in August. It also falsely claims that Georges plans to reduce state regulation of gaming and says Georges grew wealthy through video poker. Georges 2006 tax return, released to the Advocate Friday, shows less than 9 percent of his income came from the video poker company. Georges said Jindal’s entire list of contributors should be scrutinized for those doing business with the state or seeking state contracts or licenses. “Bobby has accepted cash and in-kind donations from companies doing business with state government or individuals tied to them,” Georges said. “That my legal, licensed business endeavors are being criticized by Jindal is more than hypocrisy. I have accepted no contributions from state contractors or those seeking business with Louisiana government, and I call on Jindal to return these funds immediately.” Is this another Jefferson? Is the payment just hidden as a campaign contribution?
