    Did they vote against legislation which included disaster relief? Yes or no?

    They voted against the legislation which included disaster relief. It doesn't matter if it's new spending or old spending. They voted against disaster relief. Not some legislation to name a post office.

    Yes. Which does not mean they were against spending money on disaster relief.

    It means that disaster relief wasn't as important as scoring political points against pork. Pork which would have ended up in another spending bill that was more to their liking anyways.

    I remember hearing that Bush caused Katrina and directed it toward New Orleans. So if a President can make the water flow into Louisiana, why can't his successor make the water go away?
