lay it down….

I was going to make this just an update but you have to read this article that Steve linked in earlier.  I don’t know the particulars of the bill that Jackson submitted or why he is interested in menhaden fishing but the reaction of the other Delegate is just incredible.  I’d be disappointed if my teenager behaved like that, let alone a state delegate.  I would point out to the good delegate that 50% of the kids in some of our schools are on free and reduced lunches…..

UPDATE: More linkage here: http://fredericksburg.com/News/FLS/2011/012011/01152011/600933  Interesting quote from Jackson in this article:   “Albert should look out for his constituents who enjoy sport fishing in the Rappahannock River,” Miller said, after being told about Pollard’s VRE retaliation. “There’s not fish to catch.”

UPDATE 2: Jackson offers some insight down in the comments.  Good stuff.  Thanks to Jackson for taking the time out of what must be a very busy GA schedule.
