This isn't an isolated incident. Even Liberals on some mainstream sites like Yahoo are advocating for withholding help from Oklahoma victims because they live in a conservative stronghold.

Their logic is that since Conservatives and Republicans are for smaller government and reduced spending they don't deserve any kind of aid.

I challenge Freepers to look around and read some of the comments floating about. This guys view point among the left is more widespread then you think and they are not just blaming the GOP and Conservatives for the tornado, but they don't think Conservative districts are even deserving of aid.

Every time I think that the Left in the country couldn't possibly stoop any lower......they DO.

I'd take that deal in a heartbeat, so long as the severance included paying IN to the feds, and the return of whatever monies were paid in since the last disaster that actually received federal aid, and from their regulations. You don't get to exclude someone from insurance coverage AFTER you sucked him dry for premiums for decades.

And they're getting screwed anyway. For every million in "aid" they get, what they paid in plus their share of new national debt is probably $10 million. You don't think they'd jump at the chance to opt out, so long as they get to opt out of BOTH?

I mean, by their "logic", why should conservative have to pay tax increases that were voted for only by liberal Congressmen?
