Mac and Jindal: Passing The Torch

John McCain wants to know why Presidential helicopters cost as much as Air Force one. Good point. If Obama keeps running over to the terrorist hotbed and volatile country of Canada, this situation may only worsen. However, a better point though may be ..why is Mac now reasserting himself as the strong bold fearless leader people wanted him to be last fall? He was too busy drawing up new campaign slogans every week "My friends, the economy is strong." Or how bout "my friends, vote for chnage, but real change." I loved this one, His Foreign policy strategy to not leave Iraq until achieving "peace with honor." seemed a bit dated. That's because he stole it from Nixons 1968 pledge. Boy that pledge worked out huh? When did we exit Hanoi, 1974? Sheesh.

Mac I love ya but knock it off ok?

Bobby Jindal's coming out party is upon us. The GOP have tapped the rising star as the one who will give a speech in repsonse to Obama stim plan. The Governor of Louisiana is not accepting money from the package and will explain why. Ari Fleischer said tonght on CNN that part of the reason is that federal plans will have to be taken over by State funding in a few years and so what seems like a bailout will soon become State's responsibilities. Fair enough. Of course New Orleans is a threat to National security every time relief and resources need to be sent there. Jindal should at least take some safety flow for disaster prevention. Unless of course he is counting on FEMA to step in and lend a hand. They did such a spectacular job last time. 

Mac and Jindal. I sense a passing of the torch in the GOP.
