They are coming up with $50 million for the chicken plant. They are cutting everything in sight, and $50 million to “save a few minimum wage jobs”.

The mind boggles. Chicken pluckers indeed.

Well, if politics doesn’t work out, he can always be a chicken plucker, or something closely related.

Hey, he managed to find Baton Rouge, and now you want him to locate The Big Easy … pretty pushy. Piyush doesn’t rush into things.

This is all he’s got. He’s claiming the bribe to the chicken processor is to save jobs, but the processors shut these plants all the time to move to cheaper labor, and to pressure farmers to lower the price for the chickens.

There has been a lot of consolidation in the industry plants are disappearing all over the South with states trying to outbid each other to keep them. They almost never pay taxes to state and local governments, and they use a lot of undocumented workers.

This is the state of the Republican Party. This is one of their leading lights.

…swear to God, if the leading legislative priorities that are focusing the mind of our good friend Piyush are chicken ranch reform and denying unemployment benefits, I will forevermore rest my case about his not being a deep thinker, even by Republican standards…

No wonder he spends all of his time not running for president at fund-raising events everywhere else in the country. Every moment he spends in whatever the heck represents the Louisiana Governor’s mansion is another moment demonstrating that he isn’t even close to being ready for Prime Time…
