Peter King: Halt donations to
House GOP

Politico, by Kevin Robillard

Original Article

Posted By:jackson, 1/2/2013 3:40:33 PM

New York Republican Rep. Peter King went to war with his Republican colleagues on Wednesday after leaders spiked a Hurricane Sandy relief bill, calling on New Yorkers to stop all donations to GOP House members. “These Republicans have no problem finding New York when they’re out raising millions of dollars,” King said on Fox News. “They’re in New York all the time filling their pockets with money from New Yorkers. I’m saying right now, anyone from New York or New Jersey who contributes one penny to Congressional Republicans is out of their minds. Because what they did last night

Comments:
The bill was a pork-laden disgrace. King is full of sheepdip. And the Fat Man in New Jersey should just call his pal, The Emperor Obama. They have phone service on Oahu.

There is no reason in the World that a RELIEF bill should include anything but funds for RELIEF. However, in DC, the scum are everywhere, and we all know it. This bill should be amended to delete all items not directly related to Sandy relief.

When King is talking about Muslim infiltration he´s crazy. Now he´s the bright shining star. Oh, Politico. You show your panties.

As usual, the GOP has failed to inform the public as to why they are doing anything, so the msm and the Democrats get to tell the story.

Peter King has gotten hundreds of millions of homeland security dollars for NY

That´s true about them coming to NY looking for money.

The major Wall Street corporation where I worked for many years would have regular visits from various political figures looking for "support."

King, Schumer and Gilliland show their true colors. Must be in NY´ers genes. And, yes, as is usual, the GOP doesn´t say anything regarding the pork being the real issue that is holding up the relief.


Reply 10 - Posted by: Whamdbambam, 1/2/2013 4:13:01 PM     (No. 9095223)

Perhaps Rep. King´s anger would be more justly directed at those who loaded the unrelated pork onto a "disaster relief bill," which doomed its passage in the House.


Reply 11 - Posted by: TheMotherCO, 1/2/2013 4:15:52 PM     (No. 9095229)

Peter is a jerk - met him several times in NY at meetings upstate. I am sure there is lots of pork in what they are asking and getting - yes, I feel sorry for them, but we have been through tornados, had damage and escaped floods. Did not ask the government for anything.


Reply 12 - Posted by: Malia2012, 1/2/2013 4:20:52 PM     (No. 9095241)

What #2, #6 and #7 said. BTW, from what I´ve read, there is about $9 million going for "relief" for Hurricane Sandy, which most of us had NOTHING to do with., the rest is pure unadulterated "Pork".. Good for John Boehner! Shame on Peter King!

King appears unconcerned about the billions in crony enriching pork stuffed into the bill. It must just be business as usual to Representative King...


Reply 14 - Posted by: fritzilou, 1/2/2013 4:29:20 PM     (No. 9095264)

The bill for Sandy as written is filled with pork for New York. The Republicans didn´t have time to fight over this and make any changes; it was pass it or else. Now the bill will lapse and a clean bill to help Sandy victims can be written. Congressman King needs to apologize to he fellow Republicans and leave the Republican Party or stop oinking.

I live in South Florida and we have hurricanes all the time. We PREPARE for them. And it is one of the reasons our home owners insurance always skyrockets. From everything I have read, NY and NJ ignored all the warnings over the years to be prepared for this. Now they want the rest of the country to bail them out. Just like Louisiana and California. So no, no and no.


Reply 16 - Posted by: tulipwood, 1/2/2013 4:40:18 PM     (No. 9095289)

I live in NY and I am sick and tired of our citizens and politicians trying feed off every disaster. We have become useless parasites faking illness and feigning damage in order to get rich off the rest of the country.


Reply 17 - Posted by: Spidey, 1/2/2013 4:40:27 PM     (No. 9095290)

King doesn´t mind if we add $40 billion extra to the national debt as long as he gets his 20 or so billion. Even if approved it would take months and months to start showing up so it like hurry up and wait.

NY and NJ should have their own money to spend on this but it all goes to the unions and welfare crowd. So sit down and shut up.Nobody threw a tantrum for Nashville when they had their flood.The community got together and dug out with their own money.

I think #18 is pretty close to being right. I cannot believe Peter King is now a whiner in the mold of democrats.

It just makes me sick to my stomach. Not a one of them has any desire to do anything other than stick their hands in other people´s pockets.

Hey BOZO King, get the pork out first. By the way, is there a law against people in NY and NJ to have flood insurance or just insurance on their home????

Well, I guess since Zero has declared war on fly over country (guns and religion) we will just have to say screw you blue staters.

Reply 24 - Posted by: mikeman, 1/2/2013 6:03:43 PM     (No. 9095429)

Its hard to care if jersey and new york aren´t made whole by the taxpayers. The unions will charge 5x the average for their shoddy work, and the politicians will pocket what´s left.

If they really need more money, let them raise taxes. That´s their answer for everything, isn´t it?

On Special Report (Fox News) tonight there was a report on the Sandy aid bill stating estimates indicated only about 8 billion would be needed this year for actual damage. More could be added next year if needed. Many unnecessary add ons were put in this bill to bring the total up to 60 billion. The conclusion of the report was Speaker Boehner had saved the taxpayers 52 billion by not calling for a vote on this aid last night. The vote will occur on Friday.

You know, just saw a tweet (or is that twit?) from Christie that he´s "tired of NJ and NY getting the short end of the stick" or something. Earth to King and Christie - many Americans are sick of NY. The media worshipping your lousy city, all it´s public employees, blah, blah, blah, well we are tired of hearing it constantly. I feel better.

I agree with #2. There is no reason whatsoever for a relief bill to contain any pork whatsoever. This bill has more dollars devoted to pork than relief. Strip out the pork, then pass it. If demonrats don´t like it, too damn bad.


Reply 30 - Posted by: judy, 1/3/2013 7:14:05 AM     (No. 9096013)

King & Christie should spend their energy on removing the greedy pork from the so called Sandy bill instead of trashing their own party. ....or better yet give us a break quit & go home.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — No one at the Catholic high school that fired Carla Hale in March claimed that she was anything less than a terrific physical education teacher and coach, devoted to the kids and adored by many of them. No one accused her of bringing her personal life into the gym or onto the fields. By nature she’s private. And she loved her job too much to risk it that way. But she lost it nonetheless, and the how is as flabbergasting as the why is infuriating. Rather suddenly, her mother died, and an hour afterward

Before Congress is finished with the Internal Revenue Service, there’s a serious danger some of us are going to wind up feeling sorry for the auditors.And, honestly, that is not the way we were planning on spending the spring. Especially since it appears that there are people making decisions at the I.R.S. who have the intelligence of a wet Frisbee. But, so far, the Congressional hearings of outrage have been even less sympathetic.

Let’s try to come up with some positive thoughts about the recent political fortunes of the Obama White House: • Economy’s getting a little better. Deficit’s dropping. • Bill Clinton had a really terrible second term and look how well things turned out for him. • Nobody in the administration has been caught driving to Canada with Bo the dog strapped to the car roof. It’s been quite a week, what with the I.R.S. scandal, the Benghazi controversy and revelations about the Justice Department’s sweep of The Associated Press’s phone records.

Jason Richwine, the young conservative scholar who co-authored the Heritage Foundation report on the long-term costs of the amnesty bill backed by the “Gang of Eight,” is gone from Heritage. He was purged after The Washington Post unearthed his doctoral dissertation at the JFK School of Government. Richwine’s thesis: IQ tests fairly measure mental ability. The average IQ of immigrants is well below that of white Americans. This difference in IQ is likely to persist through several generations. And the potential consequences of this? “A lack of socioeconomic assimilation among low IQ immigrant groups

The image of the man isn´t clear but police say they hope someone will recognize him. The wounded included 10 adult men and seven women as well as a boy and a girl, both 10.

On Fox News Sunday this morning, Weekly Standard editor William Kristol defended former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton from partisan political attacks over the tragedy in Benghazi, while also urging non-partisan investigations into that incident and the IRS’ targeting of conservative groups during the 2012 election. Kristol denounced American Crossroads’ anti-Hillary ads, asking “What is the point of that?” and calling them “ridiculous.” “There’s no campaign going on,”Kristol continued, adding “Let’s pull the partisanship back. It’s genuine outrage. There should be bipartisan committees investigating both from Congress. So I wish the Republicans would just be quiet,

Conservative radio host Mark Levin is very skeptical of the idea that President Obama had absolutely no idea about the IRS tea party targeting before the story broke in the news mere weeks ago. Levin declared adamantly that it is a “flat-out, bald-faced lie” that Obama didn’t know beforehand, citing prior reports by a few conservative news outlets picking up on the news well before the 2012 presidential election. Levin said, “I don’t believe for two seconds that Obama wasn’t aware of this.”

President Obama on Thursday nominated Victoria Nuland, a State Department official involved in the editing of the administration´s talking points on Benghazi, to be the next assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs. Nuland, a career foreign service officer who was until recently State´s top spokesperson, had long been expected to be nominated the post to replace Philip Gordon, who Obama picked to serve as Middle East coordinator for the National Security Council. Nuland´s nomination -- which requires Senate confirmation -- could come under scrutiny from Republicans who see her as playing a central role in shaping

Anthony Weiner’s New York mayoral candidacy was only made more improbable today after he revealed that he visited a Houston psychiatric facility following his resignation from Congress in 2011. Haunted by scandal surrounding his sexually explicit online communications with women, the Democratic former congressman sought treatment for his compulsive behavior from mental health professionals at the Gabbard Center. According to its website, the facility provides “3-day outpatient psychiatric evaluation,” particularly to “professionals who are in personal or professional crises.” While Weiner did not disclose

MARK LEVIN: So why didn´t Chairman Issa hold an investigative hearing a year ago? Why didn´t Chairman Camp, all Republicans, hold an investigative hearing a year ago, and all the other tripping over themselves right now? I´ll tell you why. Because the establishment Republicans, the RINO Republicans, despise the Tea Party. They despise the conservative movement. We exist to be managed, to be shuttled to the polling place, to vote for their candidates. The Karl Roves of the world, and all the rest of them. They fight us in the primaries, they fight us at the grassroots.

On Wednesday, Drummer Lee Rigby of the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers, a man who had served Queen and country honorably in the hell of Helmand Province in Afghanistan, emerged from his barracks on Wellington Street, named after the Duke thereof, in southeast London. Minutes later, he was hacked to death in broad daylight and in full view of onlookers by two men with machetes who crowed "Allahu Akbar!" as they dumped his carcass in the middle of the street like so much roadkill. As grotesque as this act of savagery was, the aftermath was even more unsettling

Fox News chief Roger Ailes has sent a memo to his subordinates at the leading cable news network. He sent this memo to his staff today in connection with the federal investigation into an alleged leak to Fox News reporter James Rosen, a story that the Washington Post’s Ann E. Marimow broke earlier this week. The memo’s a masterpiece, too. For all those who wonder what it is about Ailes that endears his people to him — and that makes him such a good interviewee for any media reporter lucky enough to get an audience
