Wait a minute, now I'm really confused -- apparently the hurricane is actually Haley Barbour's fault. See, Barbour didn't have a plan for dealing with the hurricanes he should have known he'd be creating by opposing the Kyoto Protocol.
So I guess we can say that the carnage in Mississippi can be directly traced to a lack of planning and preparation on the part of its governor.
Sounds fair to me! ;)
