Over the weekend in an interview with Chris Wallace about Obama’s leadership regarding BP’s Gulf of Mexico oil spill, Haley Barbour, Republican Governor of Mississippi, quipped that “The American people want problems solved.

The actual Napoleonic quote was “Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.”, but we get the drift.
