Haley Barbour Calls Obama Policies a "Man-Made Disaster"; Compares it to Hurricane Katrina - Video
Freedom's Lighthouse ^ | April 12, 2010 | Brian

Here is video of Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour speaking at the Southern Republican Leadership Conference this past weekend, where he called the Obama Administration's policies a "man-made disaster," and compared it to the devastation of Hurricane Katrina.

The video shows clips of Barbour commenting on the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, that devastated New Orleans, the states of Louisiana and Mississippi, and then Barbour said:

"I apologize for digressing to talk about that natural disaster, but let's face it - Today we are here because we know we need to deal with a man-made disaster. The policies of this administration and the Pelosi-Reid Congress are disastrous for our country."

Maybe so, but Gov Barbour evidently felt that it was OK to take private property via eminent domain so a major auto manufacturer could build a plant on it...

I feel like Diogenese, carrying a lamp in the daytime, looking for an honest man.

Is there anywhere, anyplace an honest statesman any more?????

Just who in the hell will the conservatives have on the ballot in 2012???????

Close, Haley, but not quite.

Obama's policies are a "man-caused disaster"...and they make 9/11 pale by comparison.

The policies of this administration and the Pelosi-Reid Congress are disastrous for our country.
Born losers in office is bad for everyone.

lets see? Mittens Romney, John McCain, Haley Barbour, Lindsey ‘gayboy’ Graham, Rudy Giulliani. can't pick Haley Barbour in the primaries, because he had one problem...guess I will stay home and let others chose... er lets see...Willard the RINO.

And even if he makes it to election day, cant pick Barbour cause he has one strike against him. I need to stay home election day. I guess it will have to be zer0bama again....damnit!

I hope we'll have a real conservative. I'm sure we can find one:

Thanks! And on a sidenote, I think I like the sound of ‘dung-covered shiv’ so much that if I ever develop musical talent, I want that to be my band name.
