Steve King warns hurricane victims might just spend the money we give them on 'Gucci bags'

Rep. Steve King (R-Sociopath) Hey, have I mentioned lately that Iowa Rep. Steve King is a sociopath? I'm pretty sure I mentioned that. Anyway, now he's going on about how we shouldn't spend any federal money on helping people recover from Hurricane Sandy until after we're sure they won't just spend it on "Gucci bags" and "massage parlors."

"I want to get them the resources that are necessary to lift them out of this water and the sand and the ashes and the death that's over there in the East Coast and especially in the Northeast," King said during a Tuesday evening debate in Mason City, Iowa.

"But not one big shot to just open up the checkbook, because they spent it on Gucci bags and massage parlors and everything you can think of in addition to what was necessary," he said later, referring to Hurricane Katrina.

Well, he voted against helping Katrina victims too, so he's at least a very consistent sociopath. I wonder how far off the party line King is on this one. We probably won't know until after the election, since any politician who is not a gigantic, sociopathic moron is probably keeping their "let's not help hurricane victims because I want more tax cuts" to their goddamn selves.
