Letter: Reader says Jindal set up lawmakers

  • Published: Jul 1, 2008 - Page: 6B - UPDATED: 12:05 a.m.
I think the veto was planned all along.

This was just the piece of legislation Gov. Bobby Jindal needed to open the eyes of Louisiana residents.

It’s a perfect setup. Tell the legislators they can have the raise if they are willing to vote for it, and then once the votes have been cast and there is a record of it, cut their legs out from under them by vetoing the bill.

The plan is elegant in its simplicity.
