Political Quotes

“Last week in my home State of Louisiana, nearly 15,000 citizens gathered to rally against the Obama administration's destructive moratorium on offshore drilling. The Rally for Economic Survival was meant to send a message to Washington that this moratorium is causing serious damage to the gulf coast economy. While speaking to the thousands of concerned gulf coast citizens, Governor Bobby Jindal put forth another plea to the Obama administration pointing out that the moratorium is causing just as much damage as the spill itself. Here is a quote from Governor Jindal: ``We shouldn't have to fight our own Federal Government. Just as we are fighting one disaster, we're fighting another disaster caused by Washington, D.C.'' Mr. Speaker, let me be clear, this spill is tragic and it was caused by BP. Those responsible must be held accountable and we need to find the root cause of the spill. However, history will show that President Obama did even more damage to the economy than BP through his destructive drilling moratorium.”
