This just confirms the old political adage that "all politics are local". If my people are hurting. I want the feds to pour money into my district to help. That's why we elect our representatives. If the disaster is 1000 miles away in some other congressional district...screw you! Of course, the Republicans are far less shameful at playing this game than the Democrats.

Welcome to DU (your first post).

Did you mean to write "Republicans are far less shameless"?
Perhaps "Republicans are far more shameful"?
