Barbour Calls For More Defense From Oil,
By AP_Exchange

Published: June 2, 2010
Updated: June 2, 2010

GULFPORT, Miss. (AP) Gov. Haley Barbour says he's asked BP and the White House to put more boats off the Mississippi coast to intercept oil after a two-mile long slick of crude washed up Tuesday on a barrier island.

Barbour says he doesn't want to be surprised again.

He said Wednesday the White House and BP promised to provide more vessels near the state's barrier islands to protect them from encroaching oil.

1. Whenever I hear his name from now on I will think of the old saying..
It is better to stay silent and be thought a fool rather than speak and remove all doubt

2. Haley, why don't you duct tape some huggies to your pasty white
torso, and dive into that oil and play "sorbent boom" if you're so worried.

3. I do not know what his problem is
he said it was not toxic and there was nothing to worry about.

Some people do not know how to use the brains they were born with.

4. Only Haley could be "surprised" on six weeks' prior notice
What a choad.

6. I was thinking the same thing.
I bookmarked the thread where he said it was "no big deal" and that it would "evaporate".

Just didn't think I would need it again so soon.

5. Why not put a big picture of Barbour facing the gulf
His grotesque visage will frighten the oil away.
