4. No...only to hypocritical governors who are against the IDEA of disaster relief
I am arguing for giving Perry the money... but he has to come get it.

6. Not just one check. He should have to pick them up daily.
Bit by bit he should be humiliated. He needs to have his face rubbed in it.

12. Does anyone else find it odd
That a man is campaigning for an office in order to make himself redundant? Does that make sense to anybody?
