Houston Chronicle digs Gov. Jindal over "volcano monitoring"

A month after Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal complained about wasteful spending in President Obama's economic stimulus package, including money for "something called 'volcano monitoring,'" Alaska pilots were grateful for such expenditures.

"Larded with wasteful spending" the budget bill may have been, but Jindal clearly can't distinguish between wasteful and useful. Then again, he was just continuing the long anti-science tradition among Republicans.

I'm looking forward to the Palin/Jindal ticket in 2012. She doesn't like science either.
