Things are about to get very interesting. For one, I think Alaska should succeed and start drilling in ANWR the day after they do so. It would be a mini-Kuwait. I’d move there for sure.

This is good, it means that conservative politicians have gotten the message.

There in language in Porkulus allowing the state legislatures to override those pesky governors.. I believe they have 45 days, and it’s a simple majority.

Isn’t it included in the “stimulus’ bill that the state legislature can override the Governor?

I don’t think this is a good idea. The media will convince the people of those states that they are being cheated. Afterall, the taxpayers of those states are still going to have to pay for this mess.

Unless the state legislatures have more fortitude than most, it’s a symbolic protest. Pelosi made provisions to go around the Govs if needed:

Not only does my governor have his hand out, he has pulled down his pants to facilitate the “stimulus”

Good news! Sadly, it appears that only the Republican governors read the small print.

If Rick Perry is among them, he’ll win my vote.

Jindal is one of them.....rejecting unemployment cash since that would lead to major problems having to change the state’s law on the program.
