Don’t be shocked to find this trend all over the country. The bloom is off the RAT’s rose and the Socialists have been exposed. No amount of lies from the Fraud in Chief will change that in my opinion.

They all bugged out when NO was under water. Since the government housing was gone. They stayed gone. Now they are TX’s problem.

That Obama fellow is such a nice guy. He has been the best promoter for the Republican Party in Louisiana. He has also been the best gun salesman that the NRA has ever had. What a guy! Don’t you just love stories with happy endings?

I also think that the incompetence and pettiness of then Governor Blank-O during Katrina was what started the Democrats on their decline in Louisiana.

But Acorn hasn’t started their registration drive in the cemeteries yet, so, let’s be fair....

“A good trend.”

Yes, indeed. Wonder if defunding ACORN has anything to do with this. Cause and effect?
