Again, the baldfaced hypocrisy here is stunning.
Eric Cantor circa September 1:
Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) caused a firestorm when he spoke out against more money for FEMA to help Hurricane Irene victims. Cantor is holding fast to the Tea Party idea of no more deficit spending.
And now, Eric Cantor, circa September 26:
House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-7th, is pushing for information on the status of Gov. Bob McDonnell’s request for federal disaster assistance for Louisa County residents in the wake of an earthquake there last month.
On Friday, Cantor held a conference call with Federal Emergency Management Agency and Louisa County officials. A readout of the call provided by Cantor’s office indicates that he asked FEMA officials about the timeline and process for determining whether the agency would grant federal assistance.
Too bad we have such a crappy media. That Cantor is pulling this kind of bait and switch should be common knowledge.
