White guys all look alike: Genius Janet Napolitano can’t tell governor of Mississippi from Governor of Alabama.

Janet Napolitano, the genius who runs Homeland Security, did an interview with a Mobile, Alabama radio station late last week.

She wanted to give herself a little pat on the back by bragging about how closely she’s been working with Alabama officials on the Gusher in the Gulf. Among those officials, she said, was Alabama Governor Haley Barbour.

Problem is, Barbour is the governor of Mississippi.

Don’t know about you, but we’re feeling a little insecure about Homeland Security right now.

  • Poor little darling must be visually challenged. Maybe we could all chip in to buy her a seeing-eye dog?

  • Where's David Gregory? Or that ABC News reporter who, back during the 2000 campaign, asked Bush43 who the president of Buttcrackistan was? Wasn't that top-notch journalism? Of course, Obama will just name the winner of the National Geography Bee the new States-and-their-Governors Czar, and that will solve the problem.

  • What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander: let's be fair to Nappy-litano, as I can't tell her/him apart from individuals such as Otto Gunsch, Sasquatch, Killer Kowalski, Conrad Dobler, et al.
