Here's the list of those GOP Reps that voted against aid for Superstorm Sandy

[Chellee]

5. The Democrat.

Congressman Jim Cooper(D?) TN-5th

His statement:

“I have great compassion for the victims of the Sandy disaster, which is why I voted “yes” on the first $9.7 billion bill that passed earlier this month.

“Congress should make at least some effort to pay for a portion of disaster relief. I voted for federal aid for Nashville flood recovery in 2010, and that bill was partially paid for. So were the Hurricane Katrina bills I supported. And Hurricane Rita, and Hurricane Wilma, and Hurricane Ivan, and Hurricane Isabel. Why can’t we find even partial offsets for Sandy?

Yesterday’s votes came during a national budget crisis while America is officially out of money.”

I'm not from TN. To all you who are, I'm sorry. Of course my Tea Party twit voted no, but I expect that, he's never shown decency or compassion for anyone. But this. The betrayal. Those of you who are in his district, please write and see if you can get a better explanation for his deep disregard for the suffering of the victims. He at least needs to know that you are watching and remembering who he is and what he's done.
