Re: Jindal beats Blanco in new battle for governor
——————————————————————————–
Jindal beat Blaco in the polls before. The only poll that counts is the one taken on election day at the voting booths.
BEWARE OF COMPUTERIZED VOTING “MACHINES”! They can’t be trusted, as we learned in Calcasieu Parish in the November 7, 2006, elections. When a voter would push a “NO” vote, it would mark up as a “YES” vote, and it could not be changed back to a “NO” vote, at least not until one raised a protest to the polling commissioner who would then go inside the voting booth (behind the curtain) and show the voter how to change it from a “YES” vote to a “NO” vote, a very contrived method, not even explained with a note inside the voting booth “curtain”.
AGAIN, COMPUTERIZED VOTING “MACHINES” CAN’T BE TRUSTED! They are easily rigged, as I suspect was done in the recent election in Lake Charles.
There is more to it all than this, but this is something to think about.

Funny limericks! Keep up the good work, Mr. Parkerson! Hope our friend Jim Brown is OK. Have not heard from him in quite some time. Nice to see your appeariing once again. Been a-wonderin’ whatever happened to you. When ya gonna come up to Vidalia and visit me again? You can always stay over at the farm just ourside of Natchez, and we can meet at the Riverboat at the foot of the hill and have dinner and talk politics.

It’s Dr. House, not that Hardy Parkerson that we’ve been missing. Nice to see you back, Dr. House. How was Hollywood? Are you really going to give up your psychiatry practice in favor of the movies? Oh, well! I suppse anything is better if the money is better.

Are you the real Huey P. Long, II, or are you the first Huey P. Long’s ghost?
One day someone said something nice about me;
And all undeserved, though I though it to be,
I treasured it deep on my heart’s lowest shelf;
Until one day I quite surprised even myself,
When I found I was earnestly striving to be
That something nice someone had said about me.
One day someone said
Something nice about me;
And all undeserved,
Thouogh I thought it to be;
I treasured it deep
On my heart’s lowest shelf,
Until on day I quite surprised
Even myself,
When I found I was
Earnestly striving to be
That something nice
Someone had said about me.
When I was a teenager, I began to read about Huey P. Long; and the more I read about him, the more I liked him. I swore then that one day I would be a Huey P. Long, the governor of Louisiana. I began to read every book that I could get my hands on. In those days about the only such books available to a teenager were Harnett Kane’s Louisiana Hayride and Huey P. Long’s My First Days in the White House; so I checked them out at the local library and read them cover to cover. Also, there was a book out by Allen P. Sindler called The Earl of Louisiana. I also read it, and I also fell in love with Earl K. Long.
My first day in New Orleans when I went away from home to law school at Tulane on September 15, 1963, I went to the French Quarter and into a used bookstore and found a first-edition copy of Huey P. Long’s My First Days in the White House in perfect condition, still with the dust jacked on it; and I bought it for $35.00, which was a lot of money for a book, even in those days, and especially for me. But I wanted it and I bought it and I treasured it and kept it and protected it for almost forty years until someone threw it away when I moved out of my old law office on Alamo Street in Lake Charles. What a loss to me!
I suppose my first interest in Huey P. Long and the famous Long Family of Louisiana came from the fact that my father loved Huey P. Long; and, although he was a peace loving man, he was almost ready to fight when someone would begin to run Huey P. Long down. It seemed that when my father had completed his junior year in high school, he was not going to be able to complete his senior year at Plain Dealing High School in North Louisiana for the reason he did not have the money to buy his books for his senior year in high school. Huey P. Long, seeing the problem in the public school system in Louisiana, called a special session of the Louisiana legislature and voted free textbooks for all students in public schools in Louisiana. My father got to complete high school and graduated from Plain Dealing High School that year. He had grown up an orphan, reared by his older sister on a susbsistence cotton plantation in rural Bossier Parish, and he could not attend his high school Senior Banquet because he could not afford the price of a pound of tea that he had been assigned the duty to bring.
Naturally, he loved Huey P. Long for what he had done for him and other similarly situated public school children in Louisiana.
My father once told me about being in a crowd of North Louisianians watching and listening to Huey P. Long stand on a railroad flat-car making a political speech when he was Louisiana Railroad Commissioner and was running for Governor of Louisiana for his first time. The engineer of the train tooted the horn, and someone in the crowd yelled at Huey P. Long, “He wants to move the train!” To which Huey P. Long retorted, “Tell that engineer that Huey P. Long, the Railroad Commissioner, is making a speech, and he can move the train when I get finished!” Whereupon someone in the crowd hollered at Huey P. Long, “Come on down here and I’ll fight you!” To which Huey P. Long, retorted, “Dogs fight! I’m no dog!” He finished his speech and then the engineer moved the train.
Hear that Blanco and Jindal now have too formidable opponents in Tony Gentile and Hardy Parkerson. It should turn out to be some race. Only time will tell!

We have a relatively young lawyer here in Lake Charles by
the name of Ron Richard. I have known his older relatives
for years, and most of them were plumbers. Well, when Ron
grew up, he became a lawyer. Physically Ron is considered
short; but in my opinion, as a lawyer, he is ten feet
tall. A couple of years or so ago, he strutted into a
courtroom where I was present during a recess, and became
the center of attention. A couple of the court-room types-
-lawyers and such–present said, “Ron, you ought to run
for District Attorney,” as there was a hot D.A. race about
to take place. Immediately Ron said, “Not me, bro! Me, I’m
running for millionaire.” My immediate thought was, How
audacious can one be! How wrong I was, for it was only
about a year, or a little more, later that this same
little (in physical stature) lawyer signed off on a $64.5
Million Class Action Settlement. I also signed off on the
same settlement; but I only got a small bite of it as my
fee, compared to what Ron got. No one knows for sure,
except the extreme insiders on this deal, of which I was
not one; but I heard his cut of the attorney-fee pie was
upwards of $6-Million to $8-Million. Not bad for a young
guy not so far out of law school! Immediately all of the
young beautiful girls in town were after him; or so it
appeared. There is more to the story than this, but this
is something to think about.

We Louisiana over-taxed taxpayers pay money to finance an Office of Tourism within the Lt Governor’s Office, supposedly to bring convention and other tourists to Louisiana. Yet, the biggest organizations in the state do not think enough of Louisiana as a convention site to hold their own conventions here. Take for example the Louisiana State Bar Association, which every year takes its Annual Convention out of state to Florida. The same for the Louisiana District Attorneys Association. They take their annual convention out of Louisiana. Well, if these quasi-branches of state government don’t think enough of Louisiana to hold their own conventions here, then why should the taxpayers be taxed to pay for an Office of Tourism within state government; especially, since this so-called Office of Tourism does not exercise enough influence so as to make the leading quasi-government Louisiana state organizations hold their Annual Conventions within the state. Had Jindal make this an issue in his last campaign against Blanco, he would have won. If a candidate would make this an issue in the Lt. Governor’s upcoming race, he will win. I will make it an issue in the governor’s race, and I do plan to win. Not on this issue alone, but this will be one of the issues I run on. Another is this phoney no-Smoking law. It is hyprocritical to say it is OK to smoke in casinos and in Bars, but that a restaurant owner can’t allow customers to smoke in a restaurant. There is more to it all than this, but this is something to think about. When I am governor, I am going to straighten these matters out as a beginning; and, as I work on these matters, I will be working on other areas bringing about much needed reform in Louisiana.

Dear Tony G,
Hope you will go to Jimbrownla.com and post under his “Graffiti Wall” there. Some clown posted Jindal’s announcement there. Of course, I have posted voluminously, and I think the public is entitled to hear from you there to. As you know, it will either be you or me as the next governor, and we owe it to the public to continue speak out early, as we have been doing. Keep up the good work! If I get elected, I am going to need you to help me run the state. Again, keep up the good work!

Hey, Foster bought David Duke’s mailing list, and, I am sure, his list of donors. By the way, what is David Duke’s mailing address? I need to talk to him to see what I can learn about running for governor. I don’t suppose Foster would talk to a small-fry like me, but I am sure Duke would. I think I am going to see if I can get in to visit with Edwin W. Edwards soon. When Hillary Clinton is elected soon, she will pardon Edwin Edwards her first week in office. And also appoint Federal Judge Jim Brady to the U.S. Supreme Court at the first vacancy.

Dear Friends-
After much prayer and consultation with my wife, I have made a decision.
With the decision made, I see no point in being coy. I have decided to run for Governor of the great State of Louisiana. I wanted you to hear this directly from me, not secondhand from media reports.
Your support, and that of countless friends all across the state, has been overwhelming. My wife and I are very humbled by the confidence you are placing in me.
Our state, our communities, and our families have been through some very tough times. There is clearly a hunger for a new approach to governing.
Over the next few months I will continue to reach out to the great people of Louisiana. BUT, and this is very important, I will not kick off my campaign until the summer. In my view this is crucial for our state.
Politics has a way of impeding progress, and Louisiana cannot afford to lose another second. The upcoming state legislative session this spring is vital. We cannot afford failure, and the surest way to attain failure is to politicize every initiative and decision.
Quite frankly, the Governor and our state legislators need the opportunity to do what is in the best interest of the people. After that, we can have an election.
It is my belief that campaigns are too long as they are, and that people grow weary of the barrage of charges and counter charges. I want to avoid D.C.-style politics with mudslinging, and instead focus on solving the problems that our state faces.
By choosing to start the campaign in the summer, we will give the people of Louisiana plenty of time to weigh their choice in this crucial decision about our state’s current and future direction.
Additionally, I have important efforts underway in Congress and must continue doing all I can to focus the federal government on helping the people of Louisiana.
So, there you have it.
This was not an easy decision — I take the responsibilities of governing very seriously and know our state is at a juncture of tremendous consequence. I look forward to seeing you on the campaign trail later in the year. But in the meantime, I have a lot of work left to do representing Louisiana in Washington.

Write some poems anyway.
You gotta look for poetry

And most people like ’em
Better if they rhyme;
But even if they don’t,
Don’t let that stop you.
Just look for poetry

I got an invite out of the blue to sit down with Charlotte Ziems of the Guidewire Group a couple of weeks ago. Basically, it was a chance to offer “perspective” on an “effort” (no NDA, but why be rude) they have underway, as well as their approach to said.
Meeting Charlotte was fantastic. Eminently personable (and obviously smart and experienced), we hit it off quickly. I looked down to check the time only once during the conversation (a rarity these days given everything going down), and found that our hour had elapsed before I could finish my coffee (surely a sign I was talking too much!). Hopefully it won’t be the last meet-up.
Guidewire’s got a lot going on, not the least of which is an upcoming Leadership Forum, which looks excellent, not only for its beautiful location, but also because friend and fellow PointCast alum Don Albert will be speaking in his new role as GM Sky, North America. Congrats Don!

Far more efficient than ANYTHING Blank Oh has attempted, except napping.
I listened to Powell on the Moon Griffon radio show yesterday morning, and on my way into Baton Rouge yesterday afternoon, I heard him again on WWL. Seems folks are getting a bit tired of Blank Oh lying about when she got the money and really tired of her still acting like Katrina just came ashore.
When Garland spoke with Blank Oh’s office it was the same, “how can we possibly payout ANY money when we only have half (the BILLIONS) of what we need?” Those people in Mississippi are getting more than us, wahwahwah.” What losers. They can’t even come up with a dispersion plan in what, 8, 9 MONTHS.
Bobby Jindal, on the otherhand is a PROVEN and SUCCESSFUL administrator, is respected in Wash. DC, and has much more respect in LA.
ANY defense for Blank Oh, or, God forbid, an endorsement, can only be seen as pure partisan politics that completely leaves out any concern for what is best for LA.

Hello to all. Recently a supporter asked me a blunt question! “Do you think you have a chance to win”? I answered, “Yes”.
I prefaced my answer based on the knowledge that it is incumbent upon me to get my message out to the public. I realize at this point I am at best a long shot. I am a realist; however I possess a great deal of optimism. It is my belief that with God all things are possible.
If I don’t win it wasn’t meant to be. I’ll have met a lot of great people and made many friends. I continue my efforts according to my plan. I cannot financially stand toe to toe with the other candidates. Therefore what money I have and receive will be used wisely.
We all have a circle of influence. People that value our thoughts and opinions. In many cases we also belong to someone else’s circle of influence. It could be a supervisor, an admired co-worker or friend, and perhaps a family member. As the year progresses one of the hot topics of discussion will undoubtedly be the Governor’s Race. I respectfully ask that in one of those conversations you pass on my name for their inspection of my platform. Voters need to be armed with information on all the candidates to make a good decision. Not just the candidates the news media is pushing. It is through you the voter we can bring successful change to Louisiana.
You and Tony G! That’s what’s right for Louisiana!
Are you tired of the same old thing?
The status of Louisiana is pretty much consistent. Forty-ninth or fiftieth is our usual position in all life category rankings year after year!
Consistency!!
It’s time for a change!
The political history of Louisiana has left us the brunt of many jokes. Not to mention intense scrutiny from the
Federal Government
Lets use the past as a tool!
Failure in itself is not a bad thing. It’s when we keep doing the same thing and expecting a different outcome, that’s when it becomes wrong!

The road to Baton Rouge
Hello, my name is Anthony “Tony G” Gentile. This next Governor’s election could be a turning point for Louisiana. The politics of the past and it continues today has left Louisiana with a very poor image nation wide. After two major disasters our creditabilty has sunk even lower. The sins of the past have caught up with us and the burden is heavy. I realize I’m a political unknown . I feel it’s time for a non politician to step up and take the reigns and guide us out of this pit of dispair we’ve fallen into. The key is government working for the people not special interest groups. The Democrats and Republicans don’t spend millions of dollars to get their candidates elected because they like them. They want a return on their investment. I look at your vote as an investment. Your trust in me to help guide the state towards a better day for you and your family, not just an obscure few. If you like what we have vote for the status quo. If you want a change, a change in a positive direction please give me an opportunity to serve you Afterall as taxpayers you deserve to have the man living in the Governor’s Mansion fighting for you.
Teacher pay, Law Enforcement, and Fire Protection pay. There’s an inexpensive way of accomplishing this. I did give the current Governor an outline of the plan for the teachers in early 2005. Nothing has happened yet.
The insurance industry in this state must be revamped. I’ll be honest right now I don’t know a lot about insurance but I do know the people of Louisiana pay too much! On a much more stronger note the aftermath of Katrina and Rita taught us what the insurance industry is all about. They’re going to have to do better for Louisiana. ( I have to be honest State Farm treated me good.)
Being a father of two young men a major concern is the job market in Louisiana. We need new industry bad! The minimum wage must be improved. If not on the national level then on the state level. With what Louisiana contributes to this country, with a lot of it’s citizens just surviving day to day is a tragedy.
If you’re looking for a change in government, a new start, please pass on my message. Spread the word. I don’t have much of a campaign budget right now.; Word of mouth is the best form of advertising there is!
Hardy Parkerson, Atty.
Dear Mr. G,
The Southern Christian University I founded was founded in 1992. Of course, anybody can go on that Wikipedia site and edit and post things, even if they are not accurate. Thanks for pointing that posting out to me. Yes, we do have a University, and it is a great one. We are doing all that we can with what we have. We have awarded everything from Bachelor degrees to Doctor of Philosophy degrees, even the coveted Doctor of Juridical Sciences (S.J.D.), which Harvard Law also awards. If you know of anyone who has spent a lifetime working and studying and learning and who is worthy of such an honor, just let me know. Yes, I am indeed the President of Southern Christian University, and the World is our Campus; although we do have a brick and mortar Campus here in Lake Charles. Thanks for your interest! Tony, I think it is going to be you and me in the run-off. Franly, I do not think either of us can get a majority the first time, but it will very probably be you and me in the run-off. Let’s pledge now to remain friends, even if you beat me, or I beat you in the run-off. Keep up the good work! We don’t differ very much in our views, as I see it. Maybe you are a little too pro-cop, pro-law enforcement. Of course, you do not know, as I do, how we are living in the beginnings of a police state in the United States, and in Louisiana we have so many cops they are falling all over themselves. There is more to it all than this, but this is something to think about. Keep up the good work! As I say, one of us two will be the next governor of Louisiana.
Sincerely,
Hardy Parkerson, Atty.

No I can’t site any particular instance. This still is my honest answer to the question that was asked. This is due to the uniqueness of the historical events that happened in the last year and half. The voters have seen enough. I hear it everyday. It may be time for unique electoral events. ( Hell C. Ray got re-elected!)

I’m not trying to bash you, it is merely a political reality. Being a legitimate, serious contender in a state wide election requires money, a lot of it. Millions of dollars, and without it, you can’t win. Again, this isn’t againt you, Ronald Reagan and JFK couldn’t win the governor’s race without millions of dollars.
That’s the reality. Now people run in good faith without that money, but they just don’t have a chance.
The only person who does not have a chance is the guy or gal who fails to qualify and put his or her name on the ballot.

You must be talking about Dr. Ronnie Banks that Wayne hated so much. I am glad I was able to help Dr. Banks when Wayne tried to do him in. I represented Dr. Banks. Wayne treated him very badly, and he had done that many years before to Dr. Banks. It was I who pulled over $500.00, out of my pocket and bonded Dr. Banks out of jail because he had driven all the way down from Shreveport and arrived in court about five minutes late, and this fellow Wayne had already seen that a warrant was waiting for Dr. Banks when he arrived in court at about five minutes after court had convened. I saw the injustice of the way Dr. Banks was treated by this guy, and I took five or six hundred bucks out of my pocket and posted the bail bond for Dr. Banks, or paid the bond forfeiture to get h im out of jail. I assume we are referring to the same Wayne, I don’t know. Why don’t you just drop all of this personal attack against me, you jerk, and grow up. As you see, I can hit back. Just leave me alone. You are scum to use my dear mother’s name like you are doing. Back off, illegitimate child.

Good morning Hardy,
I ran across my new friend Wayne this morning, he was with another one of your friends. The other fellow was also an attorney from Lake Charles, he too was a very nice man name Carl. I’ve seen Carl around around, he’s been little while now. They tell me that there while a number of Lake Charles attorneys hanging around here.
Hardy Parkerson
Yes, that Carl was a great guy, a Viet Nam combat veteran who suffered his whole life following his combat in Viet Nam with a real case of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. He was a great lawyer too.
Love,
Hardy
Winnie Parkerson
Yes Carl told me about that. He was also wondered how you got out of serving in Viet Nam like the rest of the young men your age at the time. He kind of had an edge to his question. I thing he was insenuating that you were cowardly and a draft-dodger. I told him NO. I told him you were a brave young man at that time. I told him you did your duty to your country by helping Hubert H. Humphrey in his efforts.
So I suppose some day when you get here you’ll have to explain yourself to these men here.
Hardy Parkerson
I voluntarily enlisted in the military and got into the Louisiana Army National Guard, and went on and graduated from Officer Candidate School, like many of those now serving in Iraq.

Re: Jindal beats Blanco in new battle for governor
——————————————————————————–
Jindal beat Blaco in the polls before. The only poll that counts is the one taken on election day at the voting booths.
BEWARE OF COMPUTERIZED VOTING “MACHINES”! They can’t be trusted, as we learned in Calcasieu Parish in the November 7, 2006, elections. When a voter would push a “NO” vote, it would mark up as a “YES” vote, and it could not be changed back to a “NO” vote, at least not until one raised a protest to the polling commissioner who would then go inside the voting booth (behind the curtain) and show the voter how to change it from a “YES” vote to a “NO” vote, a very contrived method, not even explained with a note inside the voting booth “curtain”.
AGAIN, COMPUTERIZED VOTING “MACHINES” CAN’T BE TRUSTED! They are easily rigged, as I suspect was done in the recent election in Lake Charles.
There is more to it all than this, but this is something to think about.
Sincerely,
Hardy Parkerson, Atty.

There once was a judge named Hardy,
Who was always the life of the party.
On the bench he was quite a sport,
‘Though he often appeared drunk in court;
And he always voted with the minority.
Funny limericks! Keep up the good work, Mr. Parkerson! Hope our friend Jim Brown is OK. Have not heard from him in quite some time. Nice to see your appeariing once again. Been a-wonderin’ whatever happened to you. When ya gonna come up to Vidalia and visit me again? You can always stay over at the farm just ourside of Natchez, and we can meet at the Riverboat at the foot of the hill and have dinner and talk politics.
Sincerely,

It’s Dr. House, not that Hardy Parkerson that we’ve been missing. Nice to see you back, Dr. House. How was Hollywood? Are you really going to give up your psychiatry practice in favor of the movies? Oh, well! I suppse anything is better if the money is better. I went out to L.A. recently for screen tests, but when they make me pose in a bikini with a live python around my neck, I walked off the set. I am deathly afraid of snakes, always have been since I was a child.

Thanks for the stump, Jim Brown!

One day someone said something nice about me;
And all undeserved, though I though it to be,
I treasured it deep on my heart’s lowest shelf;
Until one day I quite surprised even myself,
When I found I was earnestly striving to be
That something nice someone had said about me.

Great Poem, Doctor House!

One day someone said
Something nice about me;
And all undeserved,
Thouogh I thought it to be;
I treasured it deep
On my heart’s lowest shelf,
Until on day I quite surprised
Even myself,
When I found I was
Earnestly striving to be
That something nice
Someone had said about me.
Chapter 1
When I was a teenager, I began to read about Huey P. Long; and the more I read about him, the more I liked him. I swore then that one day I would be a Huey P. Long, the governor of Louisiana. I began to read every book that I could get my hands on. In those days about the only such books available to a teenager were Harnett Kane’s Louisiana Hayride and Huey P. Long’s My First Days in the White House; so I checked them out at the local library and read them cover to cover. Also, there was a book out by Allen P. Sindler called The Earl of Louisiana. I also read it, and I also fell in love with Earl K. Long.
My first day in New Orleans when I went away from home to law school at Tulane on September 15, 1963, I went to the French Quarter and into a used bookstore and found a first-edition copy of Huey P. Long’s My First Days in the White House in perfect condition, still with the dust jacked on it; and I bought it for $35.00, which was a lot of money for a book, even in those days, and especially for me. But I wanted it and I bought it and I treasured it and kept it and protected it for almost forty years until someone threw it away when I moved out of my old law office on Alamo Street in Lake Charles. What a loss to me!
I suppose my first interest in Huey P. Long and the famous Long Family of Louisiana came from the fact that my father loved Huey P. Long; and, although he was a peace loving man, he was almost ready to fight when someone would begin to run Huey P. Long down. It seemed that when my father had completed his junior year in high school, he was not going to be able to complete his senior year at Plain Dealing High School in North Louisiana for the reason he did not have the money to buy his books for his senior year in high school. Huey P. Long, seeing the problem in the public school system in Louisiana, called a special session of the Louisiana legislature and voted free textbooks for all students in public schools in Louisiana. My father got to complete high school and graduated from Plain Dealing High School that year. He had grown up an orphan, reared by his older sister on a susbsistence cotton plantation in rural Bossier Parish, and he could not attend his high school Senior Banquet because he could not afford the price of a pound of tea that he had been assigned the duty to bring.
Naturally, he loved Huey P. Long for what he had done for him and other similarly situated public school children in Louisiana.
My father once told me about being in a crowd of North Louisianians watching and listening to Huey P. Long stand on a railroad flat-car making a political speech when he was Louisiana Railroad Commissioner and was running for Governor of Louisiana for his first time. The engineer of the train tooted the horn, and someone in the crowd yelled at Huey P. Long, “He wants to move the train!” To which Huey P. Long retorted, “Tell that engineer that Huey P. Long, the Railroad Commissioner, is making a speech, and he can move the train when I get finished!” Whereupon someone in the crowd hollered at Huey P. Long, “Come on down here and I’ll fight you!” To which Huey P. Long, retorted, “Dogs fight! I’m no dog!” He finished his speech and then the engineer moved the train.
This is hands down the most impressive website I’ve seen, particularly involving politics and public issues. I look forward to coming to it regularly.
Hear that Blanco and Jindal now have too formidable opponents in Tony Gentile and Hardy Parkerson. It should turn out to be some race. Only time will tell!

It’s “two”, dummy! Not “too”. I just hope they are not too strong for Jindal, these two new guys on the block. Me, I’m for Jindal.

We have a relatively young lawyer here in Lake Charles by
the name of Ron Richard. I have known his older relatives
for years, and most of them were plumbers. Well, when Ron
grew up, he became a lawyer. Physically Ron is considered
short; but in my opinion, as a lawyer, he is ten feet
tall. A couple of years or so ago, he strutted into a
courtroom where I was present during a recess, and became
the center of attention. A couple of the court-room types-
-lawyers and such–present said, “Ron, you ought to run
for District Attorney,” as there was a hot D.A. race about
to take place. Immediately Ron said, “Not me, bro! Me, I’m
running for millionaire.” My immediate thought was, How
audacious can one be! How wrong I was, for it was only
about a year, or a little more, later that this same
little (in physical stature) lawyer signed off on a $64.5
Million Class Action Settlement. I also signed off on the
same settlement; but I only got a small bite of it as my
fee, compared to what Ron got. No one knows for sure,
except the extreme insiders on this deal, of which I was
not one; but I heard his cut of the attorney-fee pie was
upwards of $6-Million to $8-Million. Not bad for a young
guy not so far out of law school! Immediately all of the
young beautiful girls in town were after him; or so it
appeared. There is more to the story than this, but this
is something to think about.

(Celebrating my 40th year in the practice of law.)
The race is on with the announcement that Jindal will run for governor. Already Governor Blanco, Businessman Tony Gentile of Covington and Attorney Hardy Parkerson of Lake Charles have announced. Some few others are still considering jumping into the race for governor of Louisiana. May the best man win.

Looks like somebody monitors this site closely. That’s great. We need to get some more posters here, however. It is a great forum, a great stump for an aspiring politician.

We Louisiana over-taxed taxpayers pay money to finance an Office of Tourism within the Lt Governor’s Office, supposedly to bring convention and other tourists to Louisiana. Yet, the biggest organizations in the state do not think enough of Louisiana as a convention site to hold their own conventions here. Take for example the Louisiana State Bar Association, which every year takes its Annual Convention out of state to Florida. The same for the Louisiana District Attorneys Association. They take their annual convention out of Louisiana. Well, if these quasi-branches of state government don’t think enough of Louisiana to hold their own conventions here, then why should the taxpayers be taxed to pay for an Office of Tourism within state government; especially, since this so-called Office of Tourism does not exercise enough influence so as to make the leading quasi-government Louisiana state organizations hold their Annual Conventions within the state. Had Jindal make this an issue in his last campaign against Blanco, he would have won. If a candidate would make this an issue in the Lt. Governor’s upcoming race, he will win. I will make it an issue in the governor’s race, and I do plan to win. Not on this issue alone, but this will be one of the issues I run on. Another is this phoney no-Smoking law. It is hyprocritical to say it is OK to smoke in casinos and in Bars, but that a restaurant owner can’t allow customers to smoke in a restaurant. There is more to it all than this, but this is something to think about. When I am governor, I am going to straighten these matters out as a beginning; and, as I work on these matters, I will be working on other areas bringing about much needed reform in Louisiana.

Dear Tony G,
Hope you will go to Jimbrownla.com and post under his “Graffiti Wall” there. Some clown posted Jindal’s announcement there. Of course, I have posted voluminously, and I think the public is entitled to hear from you there to. As you know, it will either be you or me as the next governor, and we owe it to the public to continue speak out early, as we have been doing. Keep up the good work! If I get elected, I am going to need you to help me run the state. Again, keep up the good work!

Hey, Foster bought David Duke’s mailing list, and, I am sure, his list of donors. By the way, what is David Duke’s mailing address? I need to talk to him to see what I can learn about running for governor. I don’t suppose Foster would talk to a small-fry like me, but I am sure Duke would. I think I am going to see if I can get in to visit with Edwin W. Edwards soon. When Hillary Clinton is elected soon, she will pardon Edwin Edwards her first week in office. And also appoint Federal Judge Jim Brady to the U.S. Supreme Court at the first vacancy.

Dear Friends-
After much prayer and consultation with my wife, I have made a decision.
With the decision made, I see no point in being coy. I have decided to run for Governor of the great State of Louisiana. I wanted you to hear this directly from me, not secondhand from media reports.
Your support, and that of countless friends all across the state, has been overwhelming. My wife and I are very humbled by the confidence you are placing in me.
Our state, our communities, and our families have been through some very tough times. There is clearly a hunger for a new approach to governing.
Over the next few months I will continue to reach out to the great people of Louisiana. BUT, and this is very important, I will not kick off my campaign until the summer. In my view this is crucial for our state.
Politics has a way of impeding progress, and Louisiana cannot afford to lose another second. The upcoming state legislative session this spring is vital. We cannot afford failure, and the surest way to attain failure is to politicize every initiative and decision.
Quite frankly, the Governor and our state legislators need the opportunity to do what is in the best interest of the people. After that, we can have an election.
It is my belief that campaigns are too long as they are, and that people grow weary of the barrage of charges and counter charges. I want to avoid D.C.-style politics with mudslinging, and instead focus on solving the problems that our state faces.
By choosing to start the campaign in the summer, we will give the people of Louisiana plenty of time to weigh their choice in this crucial decision about our state’s current and future direction.
Additionally, I have important efforts underway in Congress and must continue doing all I can to focus the federal government on helping the people of Louisiana.
So, there you have it.
This was not an easy decision — I take the responsibilities of governing very seriously and know our state is at a juncture of tremendous consequence. I look forward to seeing you on the campaign trail later in the year. But in the meantime, I have a lot of work left to do representing Louisiana in Washington.

If You Wanta Be a Poet
by Hardy Parkerson
If you wanta be a poet,
You gotta look for poetry
In everything you see;
Like a squirrel eatin’ corn
Sittin’ up in a tree;
Or an old colored man
With a baseball cap,
Sippin’ a Coke, takin’ a nap;
With dirty red rags
Hangin’ outta his pants;
Or a woman playin’ poker
Takin’ a chance.
You gotta look for poetry
In everything you see.
Like a bird-tower there
For a Viet Nam vet,
Or a boy catchin’ shrimp
With a little cast net;
Or a big river boat
By the cemetery.
You gotta look for poetry
In everything you see.
Like a flashin’ red light
By the railroad track,
And a train goin’ by
Goin’ clackity-clack.
You gotta look for poetry
In everything you see.
Like a Taco Bell
With flags waivin’ high,
Silhouetted against
The Pretty blue sky.
You gotta look for poetry
In everything you see.
Or the Inn on the Bayou
Near Interstate Ten,
And a welcome sign
Sayin’ “Come right in!”
You gotta look for poetry
In everything you see.
Like a Cajun catchin’ crabs
On the Calcasieu,
Or a tanker loaded down
Goin’ up the Bayou.
You gotta look for poetry
In everything you see.
If you wanta be a poet,
You gotta look for those poems;
You gotta see that poetry
And you gotta write it down.
You gotta look for poetry
In everything you see.
It helps if you have
Somethin’ to say;
But even if you don’t,
Write some poems anyway.
You gotta look for poetry
In everything you see.
You’ll write good poems
Most of the time;
And most people like ’em
Better if they rhyme;
But even if they don’t,
Don’t let that stop you.
Just look for poetry
In everything you see.

I got an invite out of the blue to sit down with Charlotte Ziems of the Guidewire Group a couple of weeks ago. Basically, it was a chance to offer “perspective” on an “effort” (no NDA, but why be rude) they have underway, as well as their approach to said.
Meeting Charlotte was fantastic. Eminently personable (and obviously smart and experienced), we hit it off quickly. I looked down to check the time only once during the conversation (a rarity these days given everything going down), and found that our hour had elapsed before I could finish my coffee (surely a sign I was talking too much!). Hopefully it won’t be the last meet-up.
Guidewire’s got a lot going on, not the least of which is an upcoming Leadership Forum, which looks excellent, not only for its beautiful location, but also because friend and fellow PointCast alum Don Albert will be speaking in his new role as GM Sky, North America. Congrats Don!

Is this supposed to have to do with your race for governor, Tony? If so, give us more details.
Your friend, Ed
Far more efficient than ANYTHING Blank Oh has attempted, except napping.
I listened to Powell on the Moon Griffon radio show yesterday morning, and on my way into Baton Rouge yesterday afternoon, I heard him again on WWL. Seems folks are getting a bit tired of Blank Oh lying about when she got the money and really tired of her still acting like Katrina just came ashore.
When Garland spoke with Blank Oh’s office it was the same, “how can we possibly payout ANY money when we only have half (the BILLIONS) of what we need?” Those people in Mississippi are getting more than us, wahwahwah.” What losers. They can’t even come up with a dispersion plan in what, 8, 9 MONTHS.
Bobby Jindal, on the otherhand is a PROVEN and SUCCESSFUL administrator, is respected in Wash. DC, and has much more respect in LA.
ANY defense for Blank Oh, or, God forbid, an endorsement, can only be seen as pure partisan politics that completely leaves out any concern for what is best for LA.
PLEASE HELP SAVE LOUISIANA
VOTE BOBBY JINDAL – GOVERNOR
Now that’s funny! Keep up the good work, Edwin! I think your brother is the leading candidate, at least at this time.
Ed
Hello to all. Recently a supporter asked me a blunt question! “Do you think you have a chance to win”? I answered, “Yes”.
I prefaced my answer based on the knowledge that it is incumbent upon me to get my message out to the public. I realize at this point I am at best a long shot. I am a realist; however I possess a great deal of optimism. It is my belief that with God all things are possible.
If I don’t win it wasn’t meant to be. I’ll have met a lot of great people and made many friends. I continue my efforts according to my plan. I cannot financially stand toe to toe with the other candidates. Therefore what money I have and receive will be used wisely.
We all have a circle of influence. People that value our thoughts and opinions. In many cases we also belong to someone else’s circle of influence. It could be a supervisor, an admired co-worker or friend, and perhaps a family member. As the year progresses one of the hot topics of discussion will undoubtedly be the Governor’s Race. I respectfully ask that in one of those conversations you pass on my name for their inspection of my platform. Voters need to be armed with information on all the candidates to make a good decision. Not just the candidates the news media is pushing. It is through you the voter we can bring successful change to Louisiana.
Sincerely,
Anthony “Tony G” Gentile

The road to Baton Rouge
Hello, my name is Anthony “Tony G” Gentile. This next Governor’s election could be a turning point for Louisiana. The politics of the past and it continues today has left Louisiana with a very poor image nation wide. After two major disasters our creditabilty has sunk even lower. The sins of the past have caught up with us and the burden is heavy. I realize I’m a political unknown . I feel it’s time for a non politician to step up and take the reigns and guide us out of this pit of dispair we’ve fallen into. The key is government working for the people not special interest groups. The Democrats and Republicans don’t spend millions of dollars to get their candidates elected because they like them. They want a return on their investment. I look at your vote as an investment. Your trust in me to help guide the state towards a better day for you and your family, not just an obscure few. If you like what we have vote for the status quo. If you want a change, a change in a positive direction please give me an opportunity to serve you Afterall as taxpayers you deserve to have the man living in the Governor’s Mansion fighting for you.
Teacher pay, Law Enforcement, and Fire Protection pay. There’s an inexpensive way of accomplishing this. I did give the current Governor an outline of the plan for the teachers in early 2005. Nothing has happened yet.
The insurance industry in this state must be revamped. I’ll be honest right now I don’t know a lot about insurance but I do know the people of Louisiana pay too much! On a much more stronger note the aftermath of Katrina and Rita taught us what the insurance industry is all about. They’re going to have to do better for Louisiana. ( I have to be honest State Farm treated me good.)
Being a father of two young men a major concern is the job market in Louisiana. We need new industry bad! The minimum wage must be improved. If not on the national level then on the state level. With what Louisiana contributes to this country, with a lot of it’s citizens just surviving day to day is a tragedy.
If you’re looking for a change in government, a new start, please pass on my message. Spread the word. I don’t have much of a campaign budget right now.; Word of mouth is the best form of advertising there is!
Dear Mr. G,
The Southern Christian University I founded was founded in 1992. Of course, anybody can go on that Wikipedia site and edit and post things, even if they are not accurate. Thanks for pointing that posting out to me. Yes, we do have a University, and it is a great one. We are doing all that we can with what we have. We have awarded everything from Bachelor degrees to Doctor of Philosophy degrees, even the coveted Doctor of Juridical Sciences (S.J.D.), which Harvard Law also awards. If you know of anyone who has spent a lifetime working and studying and learning and who is worthy of such an honor, just let me know. Yes, I am indeed the President of Southern Christian University, and the World is our Campus; although we do have a brick and mortar Campus here in Lake Charles. Thanks for your interest! Tony, I think it is going to be you and me in the run-off. Franly, I do not think either of us can get a majority the first time, but it will very probably be you and me in the run-off. Let’s pledge now to remain friends, even if you beat me, or I beat you in the run-off. Keep up the good work! We don’t differ very much in our views, as I see it. Maybe you are a little too pro-cop, pro-law enforcement. Of course, you do not know, as I do, how we are living in the beginnings of a police state in the United States, and in Louisiana we have so many cops they are falling all over themselves. There is more to it all than this, but this is something to think about. Keep up the good work! As I say, one of us two will be the next governor of Louisiana.
Sincerely,
Hardy Parkerson, Atty.

No I can’t site any particular instance. This still is my honest answer to the question that was asked. This is due to the uniqueness of the historical events that happened in the last year and half. The voters have seen enough. I hear it everyday. It may be time for unique electoral events. ( Hell C. Ray got re-elected!)

I’m not trying to bash you, it is merely a political reality. Being a legitimate, serious contender in a state wide election requires money, a lot of it. Millions of dollars, and without it, you can’t win. Again, this isn’t againt you, Ronald Reagan and JFK couldn’t win the governor’s race without millions of dollars.
That’s the reality. Now people run in good faith without that money, but they just don’t have a chance.
The only person who does not have a chance is the guy or gal who fails to qualify and put his or her name on the ballot.

You win! Pat yourself on the back.
You must be talking about Dr. Ronnie Banks that Wayne hated so much. I am glad I was able to help Dr. Banks when Wayne tried to do him in. I represented Dr. Banks. Wayne treated him very badly, and he had done that many years before to Dr. Banks. It was I who pulled over $500.00, out of my pocket and bonded Dr. Banks out of jail because he had driven all the way down from Shreveport and arrived in court about five minutes late, and this fellow Wayne had already seen that a warrant was waiting for Dr. Banks when he arrived in court at about five minutes after court had convened. I saw the injustice of the way Dr. Banks was treated by this guy, and I took five or six hundred bucks out of my pocket and posted the bail bond for Dr. Banks, or paid the bond forfeiture to get h im out of jail. I assume we are referring to the same Wayne, I don’t know. Why don’t you just drop all of this personal attack against me, you jerk, and grow up. As you see, I can hit back. Just leave me alone. You are scum to use my dear mother’s name like you are doing. Back off, illegitimate child.
Hardy
Good morning Hardy,
I ran across my new friend Wayne this morning, he was with another one of your friends. The other fellow was also an attorney from Lake Charles, he too was a very nice man name Carl. I’ve seen Carl around around, he’s been little while now. They tell me that there while a number of Lake Charles attorneys hanging around here.
Yes, that Carl was a great guy, a Viet Nam combat veteran who suffered his whole life following his combat in Viet Nam with a real case of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. He was a great lawyer too.
Love,
Hardy
Yes Carl told me about that. He was also wondered how you got out of serving in Viet Nam like the rest of the young men your age at the time. He kind of had an edge to his question. I thing he was insenuating that you were cowardly and a draft-dodger. I told him NO. I told him you were a brave young man at that time. I told him you did your duty to your country by helping Hubert H. Humphrey in his efforts.
So I suppose some day when you get here you’ll have to explain yourself to these men here.
I voluntarily enlisted in the military and got into the Louisiana Army National Guard, and went on and graduated from Officer Candidate School, like many of those now serving in Iraq. I just could not get Presidents Johnson and Nixon to ordr our Infanty Brigade to active duty, although they kept us on S.R.F. status most of the whold time I was in the Army National Guard.
Sincerely,
Hardy Parkerson
