I dont doubt that you are correct, but remember that the theme of this thread promulgated was...

"How cold and mean-spirited can they get? Eric Cantor wants to tie any disaster aid to those who suffered damage in Irene to equal spending reductions in other areas.
Using hurricane victims as political pawns is about as low as you can go...but surely not a surprise"
