Did anyone say he shouldn't get it? Accusing someone of being a hypocrite is not the same as saying they shouldn't get their highly ironic request fulfilled. However, he should have to make a public apology and shut up about the subject in the future as a precondition.

In fact, I think the state of Texas should have a legal order to have him stop embarrassing the state and having their PR plummet. The things I hear him say are terrifyingly stupid. Terrifying because he's in so much power but he's so stupid…I'm sorry for being so blunt but there's no way one person could be so blatantly hypocritical more than once and have any sense of intelligence.

Oh no because you see this is what we call partisanship, my children.

Repeat after me - partisanship. Par-ti-zen-ship.

See, this means that if someone from another group of humans who don't agree with you have problems, you ignore them (preferably with a middle finger and a slap in the face or two thrown in for good measure) and call every one of your banal problems "a national tragedy", even if it could have been avoided by a drunken alcoholic monkey with half a brain and Asperger's and untreated dyslexia. Did I also mention the monkey is dead and nobody has noticed yet?

Comparing the cases though, Sandy was a natural disaster. Nothing could have prevented it.

The explosion was a case of idiocy. A lack of regulations and common sence was what caused this explosion. Basically, human idiocy is what caused it.

Even it Hurricane Sandy was a natural disaster, it doesn't mean anyone should feel comfortable denying aid to all of the people who suffered from it. We're all human beings and we should help one another when disaster strikes, natural or not. The fact that these politicians found it to be a waste of money is despicable. Human beings are never a waste of money, unless you're a rich man in Congress who is so detached from his voter base that he suffers from extreme egocentricity.
