He wants to be reimbursed for $ the state spends?holy shit... They just blew their wad early on this! I'm absolutely sure the goal here is to make Obama look worse than Bush in his reaction to Katrina. But at this time the president's reaction is actually warranted and smart for this time. Notice how Jindal is upping the ante before the outcome. That suggests this was planned recently with haste by republicans. Oh this is sad....

President Barack Obama declared a state of emergency in Louisiana on Monday as that state and others along the Gulf Coast prepared for Tropical Storm Isaac.
The White House said Obama informed Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal of the emergency declaration in a phone call. The declaration makes federal support available to save lives, protect public health and safety and preserve property in coastal areas.
Jindal, a Republican, shot back late Monday in a letter to the Obama administration that the declaration fell short of the help he was requesting.
‘‘We appreciate your response to our request and your approval,’’ Jindal wrote. ‘‘However, the state’s original request for federal assistance .... included a request for reimbursement for all emergency protective measures. The federal declaration of emergency only provides for direct federal assistance.’’
President Obama doesn't care about white people.....Ok Kanye East :D
Ok Kanye East :D
