Coburn and Imhofe should go to Oklahoma tomorrow with President Obama

[KinMd]

..and explain to the people of Moore, in person, why any help to them can't happen until and unless it's offset elsewhere in the budget. I'm sure the victims would appreciate hearing it from them.

1. Yes! GREAT idea!!

2. He should extend an invitation to them and let it "leak" that they chose not

5. On Air Force One, too... free ride, free food, free publicity....

Worlds away from what the folks on the ground are going to receive.

Not to give anything away, but the more the tornado alley Congresscritters double down, the better it is for us. People lost their fucking children, and these assholes are standing on principle.

11. Agree -- this is fodder for the Dem candidates in upcoming elections. I hope they use it!

3. Coburn and Inhofe should go to hell tomorrow.

No disrespect meant towards Oklahoma.

You are right on. I wonder if they have the guts to explain to the residents of Moore, OK why they are against Federal Aid when it comes to disasters. PK

9. I also want to join in on the welcome to DU.

No chance of either senator yielding on their rigid right-wing ideology though.
