What he said

When running for governor in 2007 Bobby Jindal made the following statement in his campaign brochure entitled “Government Reform: Controlling Runaway State Spending”:

My Plan of Action will take the fundamental reforms we must embrace to slow down in its tracks this runaway spending train coming from the State Capitol.

Jindal goes on to list the items of his “action plan”

What he did

Gov. Bobby Jindal said Thursday that he will seek to reduce the size and improve the efficiency of government by creating a commission to lead a major restructuring of state institutions and programs, including higher education. Times Picayune, March 13, 2009.

“Campaign Bobby” gave us his action plan.  Governor Bobby is forming a commission to tell him what needs to be done.

To quote Bobby Jindal: “It’s time to match action to our rhetoric.”

It’s time to hold Bobby accountable.
