In an interesting turn of events, for those looking for someone else to point fingers at for the BP oil spill, Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal has vetoed an amendment to release his office's records on their response to the disaster. As infuriating as this news may sound to citizens of the Gulf Coast region, to be completely honest there is no secret Jindal's administration set the table for this disaster of epic proportions. It does get the curious mind wondering just what kind of dangerously incriminating details will not see the light of day...for now. In a disaster of this magnitude - where its impact will be felt for years in the Gulf Coast economy, in the courts, and on the beaches - it seems likely that details of the relationship between BP and Governor's office will eventually come out. Regardless of Gov. Jindal's efforts to sequester administrative details, the jury may already be in on his leadership in the court of public opinion.
