Most of us who reside outside Oklahoma can’t help but be astonished with the hypocrisy.

Looks like you are a close second to South Carolina, where those people suffer amnesia big time.

Well, those of us out here in reality land find your behavior reprehensible!

Oh, how thick is the righteousness! 

Aren’t you one and the same who voted against aid to the victims of Hurricane Sandy? 

Did y’all forget that? Here, let me help you remember.

WASHINGTON--Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) fired back Thursday at those who have criticized him for demanding that any disaster aid package for Oklahoma tornado victims include offsets, or matching spending cuts elsewhere in the budget.

A little pinchy when the shoe’s on the other foot ,
eh Senator?
    
The money is already available to help his constituents, Coburn argued, suggesting that lawmakers only want to pass an unpaid-for disaster aid package so they can tuck other unrelated items in it to benefit their home states.

Why, those #@+*&%$#@!

"It's just typical Washington B.S.," Coburn said during an interview on MSNBC's "Morning Joe."

"There's $11.6 billion sitting in a bank account waiting to help people in Oklahoma ...

It's a crass political game because I was being asked these questions before we even pulled the dead people out of the rubble."

Could it be that you’re a first-class phuque?
Just asking.

Coburn, one of the most fiscally conservative lawmakers in Congress, is right about $11.6 billion being available.

Okay, we’re not debating that.

But, remember, it's not because he had anything to do with it.

Oh really? Nothing to do with it?

Congress approved $18.5 billion for disaster relief for 2013, with most of those funds--$11.5 billion--approved after Hurricane Sandy.

Coburn vocally opposed both packages, but lawmakers decided then none of that emergency aid should be
subject to offsets.

Except for you, Coburn! 
We want offsets! We want offsets!

The amount of money left in that fund is at about $11.6 billion, which means it can be pulled to respond
to the Oklahoma storm--without offsets.

Bullshit! We want offsets! We want offsets!
