Now here's a natural Disaster

Eric Cantor, Republican House Majority Leader, wants to hold Joplin hostage for spending cuts.

As the Washington Times reports, Cantor said any aid would need to be offset by other spending cuts, “If there is support for a supplemental, it would be accompanied by support for having pay-fors to that supplemental.” 

The term “pay-fors” means either spending cuts or tax increases, and the Republicans have firmly stated that they would not pass any tax increases this year.

How about we figure out what Cantor's salary and the salary of his staff are worth!?!  OMG....
