Dave Heineman deserves some credit for approaching the incoming stimulus funding like an adult rather than resorting to the shallow grandstanding we’ve seen from other governors like Bobby Jindal. It’s completely within a person’s rights to politically oppose something, but good for Heineman for accepting what has happened and moving forward in the best interests of the state he’s governing, deflating some of the more ridiculous Republican talking points in the process.
