He somehow made the claim that we needed more security AND he voted to fund less security, and he sees no conflict in that at all.

'Mr. Representative, did you vote for less oxygen?"

"Absolutely, we have too much oxygen."

"But people suffocated"

"Yes, we have to prioritze"

"'But people suffocated because of lack of oxygen, which you voted to decrease"

"The Obama adminstration should have had more oxygen there. But we have to prioritze, we have too much oxygen".

He's a moron, and all the riguht-wing morons will eat this up without seeing the disconnect
