More on John White’s SalaryGate. When will a reporter or constituent ask Bobby Jindal about this behaviour? Is this his Bobby’s idea of a smaller, transparent, honest, accountable government?
It has become so easy to catch Superintendent of Education John White in a lie that the exercise has also become boring.
