Correction: Baton Rouge Tea Party website is here and the tea party is April 15th from 1-3. I really haven’t talked politics on this blog (it can be found elsewhere) much (that might change). To give you that shock and awe moment – I do have strong political opinions (put your jaws back in place …
Transparency in Louisiana and all government is a wonderful thing! h/t Jeb Bruneau
Yes, I have strong political opinions. Yes, I think everyone is entitled to have their own opinion. Yes, I completely respect someone’s unique political opinions. No, I do not think debating politics with someone is likely to ever change their mind. No, I do not completely fit into one political party’s mold. All that being …
Maybe we aren’t the most corrupt state after all? Look at good ole’ IL. Who knows, seriously. If we exposed all corruption, there might be a lot more states in the running. We may have the unhealthiest state but possibly IL will make us look good in this department (at least for the time being).
As you all know, I have been working on the recall petition for the Mayor of Mandeville, Eddie Price, it is not a secret. This Sunday I returned from a DC, 4 day Soldiers’ Angels trip. On the way home, I decided to tell the group that from this day on, that 100% of my …
(picture of me – left and the founder of Soldiers’ Angels, Patti Patton-Bader on the night of the gala) Spending this past weekend in DC at the Soldiers’ Angels gala, going to dinner with some wounded heroes and getting to spend some time at Walter Reed, made me once again re-examine my priorities. Supporting our …
So my candidate lost – I’ll get over it. I think John McCain was the better man for the job and he aligned more with my beliefs and and values than Barack Obama. But, Obama inspired a nation to vote this year, he ran a remarkable campaign and he won. Am I upset? Sure, but …
I have my own personal beliefs on lots of things – call me opinionated if you want. I may speak about them publicly (especially if you ask), blog about them, but I certainly DO NOT try to impose my beliefs on others. This goes for religion and politics – unless you want to sign a …

I figure that you all have so much to say about the upcoming elections (local and Presidential) – here is your opportunity – go for it! Rant away! Amazingly, as opinionated as I am, I’m also very respectful of other points of view. It is what it is at this point and I’ve already cast …
It was a great show – click here to listen. I interviewed the founder of Soldiers’ Angels, Patti Patton-Bader the first half hour. The second half hour I had some very informative politics from some smart college polticos.
OK – so I’m not surprised Mandeville is in the headlines (and not in a good way) – again! So you think Eddie Price needs to go? You are fed up with negative headlines and you want to exercise your personal powers to help recall your elected official? Yes, I’m the Princess of Positive and …
Updated with answers 10/16 as per my phone conversation with Carla on 10/15. I sent the following questions to Carla Buchholz, my City Coucilwoman today. 1. Why hasn’t the City Council asked for the money “borrowed” from the cruise to be paid back yet? Answer: It has been returned. 2. Why is the City Council …
No – I didn’t write about it (Helena & Dollar Bill) yesterday – so shoot me. Unless you are in a bubble, you must realize that the whole world is looking at us, laughing and pointing at us like the kid with the booger on his nose or even worse, the state that tolerates criminals …
Who will help make this recall petition successful? I currently feel that the majority of citizens of Mandeville would sign the recall petition if it was handed to them while they lay in bed. In my honest opinion, those that will not sign, have had some type of personal or business dealing with him that …
