I am late in linking this, but it is an amazing story of what happens when we give politicians power over our lives. The story is about Trent Lott's silly vendetta against State Farm insurance, which all started when State Farm took the ridiculous step of not paying off on flood damage to Trent Lott's home after Katrina just because ... yes, this is going to sound like a really weak excuse ... the policy did not cover flood damage. Can you imagine? Of course, it is clear that Lott knew this in advance, since he had sought out and obtained a separate flood insurance policy. But still. Don't they understand lèse majesté?

So then, because Trent Lott is a slime bucket which we all knew before hand, then by inference all Mississippians are slime buckets and were trying to screw State Farm. Is that the message of this article?
