I am just disturbed about the fact that he was thinking about me with women’s underwear on.

This may sound crazy to you: But it’s possible that we fundamentally disagree about the issues.

Whereas you read an objective and reasonable piece, I found Erickson’s work to be hackneyed and obsequious.

Whereas you say things like “Governor Jindal has chosen to sacrifice his life” and (Governor Jindal has) “the Gift” (with a capital G), I do not attribute any Messianic qualities to him. Frankly– and I don’t know how to put this any other way– I find some of your language a little creepy.

If I felt responsible for defending him and his role in this event, I would

a) Know my audience

b) Speak with an even temper (which means avoiding your inner Limbaugh).

c) Skip all of the hyperbole and go right to the facts.

Regardless, thank you for clearing up the fact that this was actually solely organized by RedState.com.

I wonder what Republicans would be saying if a Democratic governor held a DailyKos conference at their house.

By the way, classy people don’t make statements such as Mr. Erickson’s.

Sorry.

Signed,

The ridiculous, uninformed, shallow, slobbering dog who lacks sufficient credentials and who doesn’t love his State as much as he should,

This was about the truth and my friends.

You started with an undeserved criticism of the Governor in your title. No one was snubbed nor was it ever anyone’s intention to do so and you have absolutely no proof to support your claim.

You claimed that Erick Erickson considered the people in Louisiana ignorant, when the ignorance is yours; Erick never claimed nor implied that. He is originally from LA and his family lives in Jackson, LA. Then you went on a tear to further discredit the man, and for what reason? I doubt an honest description will look favorable for you and will likely be avoided here.

You then attempted more mischaracterizations and unflattering assumptions of the Governor’s intentions for attending this meeting. It was certainly not to “recapitulate” his campaign and the only comment from the Governor about Obama came after a direct question by Ben Domenech to analyze the Obama campaign which never included a comparison of himself to Obama. The Governor’s comment was both thoughtful and respectful pointing out that Obama’s claims of non-partisanship had no example. It was Erickson that made the very accurate distinction between them and Erick simple went on to illustrate that on the subject of “change” Obama talks the talk, but Governor Jindal walks the walk.

Continuing YOUR attack on Erickson, you called his article “ridiculous” when in truth; it was both flattering and accurate. What is your problem with someone saying good things about our Governor? Again, an answer you will likely avoid.

Then, and like you accuse, in sycophant style you go pouting that Chad Rogers was not invited. So what?! What about the many dozens of other bloggers that were not invited? Who appointed the “Drudge clone” as the first pick to represent Louisiana bloggers and if Chad was really trying to be objective, why didn’t he call Erickson to actually get the facts? Hmmmm…….maybe you will be so bold as to ask him.

This was not some official convention or news conference and it was never touted as one. Even if it was, I don’t remember being asked to vote any site as my representative. Your whole argument of “numbers” is irrelevant using flawed logic and forgetting the intended “off-the-record” status of the meeting. You will likely enjoy the fact that when I emailed a link for the story to my friends, I admitted it was a “puff” piece simply to record the event. Had you read the article closely, you would have noticed my explanation that the meeting was not intended to be a news conference. The fact is, as I pointed out and you later ignored, REDSTATE.com organized this, Ben Domenech extended an invitation to those paying attention in Louisiana and OVER half the bloggers in the meeting were from Louisiana. Perhaps if people like you, looking like a slobbering unfed dog, had done the slightest bit of research BEFORE attacking the Governor you would not look so “ridiculous” as you do right now.

As a defender of helpless children and the American way of life, Erick IS a classy guy. I know, because unlike you, I have actually met the man. I am proud he is from Louisiana and I am proud that he is in the TOP 100 of the most influential conservatives in the United States.

With much greater credentials and a love for his state, and despite the relentless and undeserved attacks by uniformed and shallow people like you, Lamar White, Jr., Governor Jindal has chosen to sacrifice his life to serving the people of Louisiana instead of a certain and more prosperous career in the private sector away from unappreciative hacks bent on tearing him down rather than supporting his efforts.

Both of these men are my friend and while I encourage honest people to support their efforts, I will never hesitate to defend either of them when they are wrongfully disparaged by much lesser men like you and your ilk.

Even more important, if the people of Louisiana will recognize the Gift we have been given with Governor Bobby Jindal, as he works for a better Louisiana, if we give him an honest chance and the respect he deserves, our children will have a much better Louisiana than I did.
