What he said

When running for governor in 2007 Bobby Jindal made the following statement in his campaign brochure entitled “Ethics Reform: Ending Corruption”:

Unfortunately, headlines after the 2005 hurricane season and the flow of funding from federal sources for the recovery process only served to reinforce this negative perception of a
state lacking in dependable leadership, a government overrun by cronyism, and a society that has turned a blind eye to corruption in government for far too long.

The time to change that type of behavior is long overdue.

What he did

According to the story by “Watchcat” Jeremy Alford, either Bobby is practicing the same cronyism he railed about or there are a whole of coincidences in Bobby’s appointment of major campaign donors to public positions.  (See story and chart here.)

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

It’s time to hold Bobby accountable.

Kudos to Jeremy!
