I’m really sorry to have to say this, because I like you so much, but this question really pisses me off. Congress voted against aid, not the citizens who have lost their homes. And let’s not forget their children, some of whom are dead, injured, or still missing.
And to say that “the people of Oklahoma elected them” is bullshit. You can’t hold civilians accountable for the stupidity of their leaders. If we go by your logic, I should be fucked over just because my local Congressman, Ralph Hall, does something stupid.
So, if ole’ Ralph and some others in my state had voted against Hurricane Sandy relief aid, then my city was leveled by a tornado, my children were in one of the schools that was leveled and were either injured, dead, or still missing, my house and all my possessions were gone, leaving me with just the clothes on my back….. you would tell me to fuck off because of something my congressmen did?
