Rep. Eric Cantor: Spending cuts in exchange for Missouri tornado aid
The State Column Wednesday, May 25, 2011
Virginia U.S. Rep. Eric Cantor said Tuesday that any spending costs associated with federal disaster funding for Joplin, Missouri, tornado victims must be offset with spending cuts.
The Virginia Republican said “if there is support for a supplemental, it would be accompanied by support for having pay-fors to that supplemental.”
The House Republican leader is the first to push for spending cuts related to the disaster that has already claimed over 100 lives. Democrats slammed the Republican leader, saying it amounted to “ransom.”

That's right Eric Cantor, the only way that you can help some Americans is to hurt other Americans by cutting some program that helps them. How heartless can you be?
