Nope. "Accidents Happen. Vote Republican!" After all not mobilizing the National Guard and then blaming Obama is much more cost-effective than actually having people clean up the mess.Out of the 6,000 National Guard troops President Obama has authorized for response in Mississippi, Haley Barbour has mobilized only 58. However, he has declared today to be a Day of Prayer “to remember the Mississippi Gulf Coast.” [...]Fifty-eight National Guardsmen for the entire State of Mississippi? Elections the top priority right now? Any comment people of Mississippi on whether your Governor's priorities are the right ones?
“The most important thing right now is the 2010 elections,” Barbour said. “We can’t wait until 2012 to take back our country.”
Barbour on Thursday held Washington fund-raisers for the Republican Governors Association, which he heads, and for one of his political action committees, which is raising money for GOP congressional candidates. His fund-raising is receiving some national media attention and fueling speculation that he is already gearing up for a run for president in 2012.Gosh, I'm sure Barbour would fix everything in a jiffy if he were President, just like he has done such a bang up job as Governor of Mississippi. Can't wait to see him take on Obama in 2012. Can you?

An Oil And Water Reaction
Steven D over at BooMan's place catalogs the reaction to the oil disaster of Mississippi GOP Gov. Haley Barbour, and you wonder why I think it's not going to hurt Obama nearly as much as it's going to hurt these red state gubernatorial goofballs.

The number at the beginning of the month was 70.
Also from the sounds of it Mississippi is on top of things. As of June 23 "no hazards have been discovered"
"We’re going to continue flying, analyzing imagery, testing the air quality, and planning for a worst-case scenario. This oil is not taking a day off so we won’t either."
"Seven aircraft valued at about $50 million have spent 270 hours in the air transporting scientists, elected officials, emergency managers, university professors and members of the media to provide accurate and timely data."
“This is an unprecedented amount of flying, but this is an unprecedented disaster,” said Colonel Lee Smithson
“One of these planes can do more than 2,000 Soldiers, and we want to fight the oil as far away from our shores as possible.”
