It Just Keeps Getting Better & Better!

If we weren't mad enough about the legislative pay raises, now there's a story out of Baton Rouge that many of the legislators often during this session were NOT EVEN IN THE Capitol at the time of many votes. Instead having their fellow legislators pushing the buttons on their voting machine when votes were called. In essence, they need this raise so bad because of the serious drain on their time, so much so that many of them are not even present for various votes. I'm just wondering exactly how many of these yahoos were actually there when the vote was taken for the pay raise. I can just picture Ann Duplessis hurtling aisles to push as many voting machine buttons as she can reach! You can't make up stuff this good... Welcome to Louisiana!

Check out the story from WAFB Channel 9 in Baton Rouge!

Just when you think you've seen it all, it just keeps getting better and better!

Nothing absolutely nothing surprises me anymore about the abysmal politics in this state!Double their pay for a part time position and they don't even be present to cast their vote, how low can we get? We have to take back the state now or it will be lost forever.

Livid,

You hit my sentiments exactly! Their arrogance to even try to make the argument with a straight face shows just how "out of touch" they truly are.

thanks for the comment!
