INHOFE: “BLUE STATE DISASTERS BAD. RED STATE DISASTERS GOOD.”

According to Senator James Inhofe of Oklahoma, his state’s tornado tragedy is deserving of significant and immediate Federal disaster relief.  President Obama promised he’ll provide “whatever it takes…”  No questions were asked, or conditions required.

Funny, but I seem to recall him saying, just months ago, that disaster relief requests for Hurricane Sandy victims were full of pork, wasteful, and heart-tuggingly manipulative.  Yes, that’s what the Senator from Oklahoma and his moron partner, Tom Coburn, reaffirmed just the other day.

Ah, now I understand.  Silly me. We have virtuous disasters and bogus disasters, according to Inhofe.  Oklahoma’s tragedy, from a state that gets an out-sized proportion of Federal relief dollars (from that evil entity BIG GOVERNMENT) is deserving — so hurry up and cut that check.  But last December, after months of sitting on their thumbs, Inhofe and other red state pols casually picked apart Sandy relief requests like pulled pork at an Oklahoma Sunday BBQ.

What do you say, Real New Yorkers?  I know what I say, to any politician that holds up or puts subjective conditions on funds that help Americans caught in a tragedy:  ”Honey child: kiss my grits!”
