These eleven congressmen, Republican conservatives all, just voted against the $51 billion package (H. R. 3673) for the victims of Hurricane Katrina. Horrible human beings, all.(Hat tip Ezra.)
Rep. Joe Barton - TX
Jeff Flake - AZ
Virginia Foxx - NC
Scott Garrett - NJ
John Hostettler - IN
Steve King - IA
Butch Otter - ID
Ron Paul - TX
James Sensenbrenner - WI
Tom Tancredo - CO
Lynn Westmoreland - GA
I’m not surprised in the least to see the contemptible Hostettler (with whom I’m embarrassed to share a state) on that list, nor the depraved Sensenbrenner and detestable Tancredo. The rest I know nothing about, although I’m sure if I did, I’d wish to be back in my current state of ignorant bliss about what hideous piles of excrement they are.
Ezra thinks this lot “no longer want their jobs,” but I’m afraid such wanton disregard for the needs of a group that is largely poor and black will only endear them to their equally hateful constituents.
