  Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) argued that the government should be cut in response
to the deadly flooding in Texas over the weekend. In a Sunday interview
on Fox News, host Lisa Boothe asked Roy if there was "blame to be
assigned" for the deaths of more than 50 people.
 "Yeah, I mean, in classic Washington, D.C. fashion, everybody wants to
politicize everything," Roy replied. "Look, there's going to be time to
go review what can be done differently."
 The congressman worried that the response would be to close camps located
near rivers.
 "You have camps near the river because it's a beautiful and wonderful
place to be," he said. "Maybe there were Democrats that were involved but
not doing something. Maybe there were Republicans involved and not doing
something."

My universal Translator had a different opinion.  You ought to get yours tested for pessimism and cynicism.
