NEW JERSEY - Today Rep. Eric Cantor toured areas devastated by Hurricane Irene, yelling taunts at victims and withholding bottled water.
"Get a job!" screamed Rep. Cantor (R-VA) from his helicopter to one man on the roof of his home, surrounded by 10 feet of water.
The scene was observed by shocked and often disgusted reporters, except those from Fox News. "To say this is in poor taste is a ridiculous understatement," said one on-looker. "But he's consistent, I have to give [Rep. Eric Cantor] that."
This photo-op comes days after Rep. Cantor publicly stated that no federal disaster relief funds should be released to hurricane victims unless offset by other spending cuts.
"The guy knows how to stay on message," said one high-ranking right-winger. "So A+ for that, but F- on doing his actual job."
