Eric Cantor, house majority leader is fucking insane. There is no other way to describe this bastard. His Virginia district has suffered damages caused by both the recent earthquake and by hurricane Irene and he comes out yet again and wants to match cuts to disaster relief money. He is a heartless bastard plain and simple.

I say again because he came out after the massive tornado outbreak and stated the same damn thing. What is his district thinking? After 5 months of deliberating between congress and the senate on cuts for the recent debt debate how would the cuts debate go for disaster relief? If victims were lucky they would get done arguing about cuts-relief money sometime after Christmas and by then people displaced by this thing would be up shits creek.

Eric Cantor, have a fucking heart. You represent people in your district who need help, Homeowners insurance on the east coast of this country probably doesn't include earthquake coverage like many out west have because we get a damage causing earthquake once every maybe 100 years? I don't have the statistics on it that but I am going to guess it hasn't been in our lifetimes. The same goes for people in Vermont and upstate New York, they probably don't have flood insurance....Thats where FEMA comes in, for the damage that homeowners insurance won't cover. Why is this a bad thing? Why does every dollar need to be accounted for when it comes to the wellness and safety of our citizens after a disaster?

Cantor's comments suggest that people should have been saving for hurricane Irene. like people save every day for their homes and businesses to be totally destroyed in a weather related incident. Remember the October surprise storm from a few years ago? How many who lived through that carnage were prepared for that chaos? No one predicted that and no one saved for that storm. Yet we needed help and relief that can't come out of homeowners insurance, that can't come from people wallets.

I would love to go hang out in Cantor's district for a week and just interview random people, after the comments he made about the disaster relief, it shows where this bastards heart is, the almight dollar. I say if he wants cuts we start with his salary and then why don't we work our way to the Pentagon for the rest. Bring back the troops in Iraq and end one of these wars and let the troops help our people for a change. The fact is those aren't the cuts he is talking about. He is talking about more cuts to the poor and middle class, cuts to Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, people who are already hurting from the hurricane, get hurt even more.

Eric Cantor, your day is coming, my prediction is in 2012, his district is going to vote this scum sucking pig out of office,, mark my words.
