No he didn't. Something about the fact that NY received an extra amount last year and this was their normal share, also saying other places needed a share as well. Someone else might be able to repeat his words better than I but that is what I heard.
Nope, blame the hysteric knee jerk Bush hating political bigots like King. Everything is Bush's fault so THEY can sit on their butts and whine. Hey Congresscritter, YOU butt boys appropriate the MONEY, write yourself an appropriations bill and give yourself the money. But no, so much easier to do nothing like the rest of you Congressional losers and then blame Bush for nothing getting done.
After all Congress can rely on the Whine All The Time Choir of "Real Conservatives" to simply mindlessly parrot the latest attack on Bush. Like the Democrats the Whiners have NO ideas other then bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch.
