Thanks, sand, ‘tis kinda tough to FReep, watch grandkid, and grill Allen Brother’s...
One important thing from his first term...he was going to allow the legislature to give themselves a permanent annual payraise by not signing the bill, nor vetoing it. The people raised hell, and in the last hour he had no choice but to veto.
One important thing from this term is that he pushed the senate to name unindicted co-conspirator to Edwin Edwards, John Alario, Jr. hardcore demorat, to be the senate president.
Alario switched to Republican in 2010.
