Yep. Canadian Cupcake Cruz shows his hypocrisy again.
Feel free to deny or dispute this if you can. But facts are facts.
Over/under on hijack attempt by the usual suspects is 10 posts. I'll take the under.
2/3rd's of the 60 billion dollars for hurricane Sandy relief was pork and Cruz knew it, ShitEater... http://legalinsurrection.com/2015/05...exas-flooding/He didn't read the Bill? He probably just doesn't like Cruz cause he's Hispanic. That's a "shiteater" for ya.
Thanks Ted for looking out for ShitEaters neighbors! Originally Posted by IIFFOFRDB

I read your linked article but that didn't prove it.You've encountered another of our favorite liars and a real lout. He's not too good at math and probably didn't realize that $40 billion was 2/3 of $60 billion.
Was there some pork in the Hurricane Sandy bill? Yes, perhaps millions, but certainly not $40 billion.
Here is one of the "pork outrage" articles that appeared at that time (2012) by the Washington Post:

They highlight around $300 million in easily identifiable pork. They mention $13 billion for "migitation projects" (projects to avoid future disasters), but I am not sure I would classify that as pork. Not directly related to Hurricane Sandy victims, yes. Pork, I don't think so.
Ted Cruz is just trying to spin his hypocrisy. His original objection was due to budget concerns, since Hurricane Sandy funding was not offset by reductions in spending elsewhere. Originally Posted by PizzaLover
