File it under: Typical Repub Hypocrites

The same jerks(R) who voted AGAINST Emergency Aid for Hurricane Sandy victims are now begging for, and getting, aid for Hurricane Harvey victims.
Remember, you can't spell HYPOC(R)ITE without (R).

With Texas now having to deal with the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey, lawmakers Cruz and Cornyn are looking for federal disaster aid - after they voted against a crucial aid package for New Jersey and New York following Hurricane Sandy in 2012.
The Dallas News says eight Texas representatives in 2013 voted against replenishing the National Flood Insurance Program, which was already running out of money ahead of Sandy.
All but one member of the Republican delegation from Texas also voted no on a second bill providing $50.5 billion in aid for Sandy victims.
Gov. Chris Christie, who had announced his bid for the GOP presidential nod, had specifically called out Sen. Ted Cruz in 2015 for his "no" vote when Texas had already received aid for flooding in previous disasters.
