Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal told a true story last night on PBS. After Katrina hit Louisiana, he walked into the Sheriff's office who was angry. The sheriff was hollering in the phone, I am the sheriff, and if you don't like come and arrest me.
Jindal asked whats wrong? The sheriff said there are several private citizens in boats ready to go rescue people stranded on their roofs. Some Bureaucrats are telling them not to put their boats into the water unless they have proof of insurance and registration.
Jindal continued to say that there is a lesson here; it is the spirit of the people that got us through Katrina, and it is the spirit of the people who will get us through this.
I would like to add that when we reach out to each other to support and help, as some of you have been doing, that is what I believe Jindal is talking about.
