In Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal's disastrous response to Obama's budget speech a few weeks ago, he singled out a $140 million appropriation as especially absurd: money for the U.S Geological Survey to monitor our nation's volcanoes. He made some joke about eruptions of spending.

Don't worry, we'll keep the hurricane monitoring, too, even though it costs money.
