Who Dat say we don't have responsive politics in Dis State?

La. Democratic Party to Gov. Jindal: State should sue to protect 'Who Dat'

I know you think they're being douchebags. And I know many of you think Vitter and Melancon were throwing bones to the rabid yesterday. But, in a purist sense, this is what democracy fucking looks like. Who cares what the pols' cynical motivations are if they're taking action on the shit you're screaming about? I think we can learn from this. This is the way you pass meaningful health care reform, for example. By jumping up and down and screaming like an idiot until you get what you want. Not by electing a "smart guy" and hoping he'll do the right thing while you go do something else.
