So Eric, are you adding Oklahoma to the states you're going to screw?

[Raven]

Should we start keeping a list?

1. It's not Eric, it's God who is punishing Oklahoma

I just heard on the "news" that the weather is "cruel".

Cruel weather vs. Benevolent weather.

[BOG PERSON]

8. jesus, we don't even give "the economy" moral agency

[cayanne]

2. What are you talking about?

Who is Eric?

[monmouth]

3. Eric Cantor (R) who earlier stated he didn't know if there would be

funds (paraphrasing here) to help with the damage...

[gratuitous]

5. The same Eric Cantor who last year said . . .

That funding further tax cuts for the wealthy didn't have to be offset by spending reductions elsewhere because of all the trickling down we were going to get when we handed even more Treasury money to the greediest motherfuckers on the planet.

[roguevalley]

11. we can't pay to help our own people unless we offset cut somewhere

else. what a nozzle. Karma is a bitch, eric. your state will get their turn. I live on a fault line. If my house goes belly up my country better step up. We all pay for the country to help all of us. He is a disgrace.

4. I'm going to guess "yes" on this....

and I'm also going to add OK to the list of states he needs to personally visit in order to explain himself.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

6. He'll have to get in line...

People from Oklahoma in the Oklahoma Legislature is doing a lot of screwing of Oklahoma on their own.
