You can’t make this up.
Via Gov. Haley Barbour’s Twitter feed:
One of the things I’m concerned about is that we don’t need a long-term moratorium on off-shore drilling.
Really? After viewing oil on our shores, and this is what he decides to put out? He’s worried about a moratorium on offshore drilling?
I guess we can at least give Gov. Barbour credit for being consistent. He’s consistently downplayed this tragedy and played up how great BP is doing in the aftermath.
The aftermath, however, is of a tragedy that could very well be of their own making.


All I can decifer is Waley has become concerned that his kin folk’s blo-hole could become clogged with the crude.
He certainly is not concerned with the ordinary folk of Mississippi.
