Louisiana rejects Real ID

Did you know that the United States has states?

They're united, but they're states. It's pretty spiffy how this federal republic thing works, you know.

Because Louisiana is a state, it can, like, pass laws.

We spotted a sturdy rung back to sanity last month when we learned that Louisiana had a bill to ignore the Bush regime's illegal Real ID mandate. And now Gov. Bobby Jindal has signed it into law (despite the fact that Jindal, a Republican, supported Real IDiot when he was in Congress).

Under this bold new law, Louisiana's Department of Public Safety and Corrections is ordered not to implement Real ID. And the agency must also report to the governor any efforts by the Department of Homeland Suckyurity to implement the federal fiat.

Kentucky really needs to get on the ball.
