In reply to the discussion: Before Receiving Federal Disaster Aid- Red State Residents Should View Footage Of Their Reps [View all]kentauros
(29,414 posts)I'm going to assume that's a flaw and not deliberate.
Number one, my problem is with my "fellow" DUers that insist the only way to make the people of Oklahoma learn is to deny them aid because their reps and senators voted against aid to Sandy victims. I find such behaviour heartless and unbecoming of what I consider to be a Liberal. (Think of the meaning for "bleeding heart Liberal."
Number two, I was originally agreeing with you that we should point out their elected officials' voting records even as we give the people of Oklahoma all the aid they require. I guess you missed that part because I disagree with it doing any good in the hearts and minds of those same elected officials. Their constituents will likely react differently, as I've read so far according to residents' posts to Inhofe's FB page.
Number three, I never once insisted that the people of Oklahoma just don't care. I've never been talking about them. I've only ever been referring to their elected officials. Their attitudes and voting are a matter of public record, and they truly do not care about anyone but themselves. If they did, we wouldn't be having this (hopefully mistaken) argument.
