For every 1 job out in the gulf on a rig, there are 9 jobs onshore supporting that worker.

The oil industry in Louisiana represents $30 Billion of the economy in our state. That is billion with a "B"

Friends, one thing is quite clear: Don't Expect The Calvary with this bunch. It doesn't happen under republicans, and it hasn't happened under Obama.

There is a disconnect between the Bubble in Washington and the Reality in South Louisiana. and it is Real.

The disconnect between state and federal governments was clear as [Secretary] Salazar [speaking in Houston on Sunday] trumpeted 1.73 million feet of boom and more than 1,000 vessels deployed on the front lines, while Jindal complained [in a press conference in Venice, La on the very same day] that during a boat tour of oiled coastline Sunday he saw only two vessels trying to protect the shore.

Jindal said 143,000 feet of boom sat in staging areas while oil damaged 65 miles of Louisiana coastline. It has been 20 days since the state asked for 5 million feet of hard boom, but only 786,185 feet of hard boom has been delivered so far, he said.

No apologies for Obama. Or that MMS was lacksidaisical in the past. Or whatever it is that GWB did NOT do.

For the past 30 days, the administration has allowed BP to get away with so much bull it is UNBELIEVABLE. And THAT is what counts. It's happening on HIS watch.

Today I wrote a letter to Roger Goodell about bullying mom and pops in New Orleans on the eve of the New Orleans Saints first ever superbowl appearance.

I am calling upon my kos comrade in arms to join the Who Dat Nation in defending itself!

Found this link on Wonkette: The RNC wants YOUR feedback on rebuilding the party.

The party that KNOWS all, is out of ideas.

Reminds me of the comments section on McCain's webstore.

Sara Palin is going to Omaha for a personal appearance this week. OMAHA!

=EXCLAMATION POINT=

Obama HAS a plan. And despite all the ups and downs, we have to remember: there is a plan and strategy in place that has been well-thought out and is being implemented and rolled out methodically.

Daily events (OMG Caribou Barbie wore new glasses today! will we survive that?!) may nudge things at the corners here and there, but at the end of the day: what counts is who has the better ground game. Despite what Sara Palin's church may want others to believe: In the real world, math is a finite science.

THE POLITICAL SAUSAGE MAKING BEGINS!

I'm linking to a story on Salon about "people powered" Obama coming to the rescue of Rep. John Barrow in Georgia.

http://www.salon.com/...

Barrow, one of the principal proponents of giving Bush unlimited eavesdropping powers and amnesty to the Telco's, is facing a primary challenge from Regina Thomas, an african-american state senator. Their Savannah district is 70% african-american.

Following Hillary's concession to Obama, I had a discussion with other kossacks about her offer to fundraise for Obama. I felt that her enthusiasm to fundraise for Obama was extended also because she would be able to keep a share to help settle her own debt.

It had been my impression that it is possible and customary for those raising the cash to take a percentage for themselves.

My assumption was disputed with the argument that money raised for a candidate must only go directly to that candidate.

Well, an article about Rudy Guiliani fundraising for McCain on Talking Points Memo answers the question (TPM in turn quotes New York Times):

You can go back and search my entries: I hate bush, but proceeding with the demolition of the Hano housing is just about the only thing I agree with what his adminsitraiton is doing.
