Corporate Donations to Governor&#39;s Wife&#39;s Charity Are Totally EthicalS

Is Louisiana Governor/exorcist Bobby Jindal corrupt? Obviously not, no—who ever heard of a corrupt Louisiana politician?—and yet The New York Times seems to be strongly implying that he is:



How could anyone possibly question the ethics of this situation? The first lady's foundation is "completely nonpolitical [and] nonpartisan," Jindal's press secretary told the commies at the Times. "Anything other than this reality has plainly been dreamed up by partisan hacks living in a fantasy land." Indeed, surely donations from large corporations like AT&T or Marathon Oil are mere coincidence. Dow Chemical, the "largest petrochemical company in Louisiana," has a lot of money! Maybe it just, you know, accidentally ended up giving $100,000 to the Supriya Jindal Foundation for Louisiana's Children. And yet, "ethics watchdog groups say the contributions are no accident." Ethics watchdog groups... or partisan hacks living in fantasy land?
