Good plan

by Jed Lewison

So yesterday was declared an official day of prayer to plug BP's leaking well by state governors along the Gulf Coast (plus Alaskan half-termer Sarah Palin).

Meanwhile, also yesterday:

Oil spill makes first landfall on Mississippi mainland, hits Alabama beaches

Countless patches of light oil sheen moved into waters north of the barrier islands of Alabama and Mississippi on Sunday, as brown and orange blobs washed ashore from Orange Beach to as far west as Ocean Springs.

Boats worked to corral iridescent sheen just north of Dauphin Island's Katrina cut Sunday morning.

A National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration forecast for Sunday showed the main body of light oil completely surrounding Dauphin Island for the first time since oil started pouring into the Gulf of Mexico in late April.

I've got a prayer: God save us from these idiots.
