Daily Kos: Freshman GOPer wants funding restored for program he voted to cut

Ah, Republicans. So quick to vote against investing in our country and just as quick in hoping Democrats bail them out.

The jerkward in this instance is from Iowa and wants a trail line between Chicago and at least Iowa City. But he voted AGAINST a bill that would fund that line because he'd rather waste money on billionaire tax cuts and giving freebies to oil companies than to invest in our nation's infrastructure.

He still says he wants the train line though. He just doesn't have the spine to vote for it himself.

Typical Republican. Can't stand up for his constituents. Won't fight the wars they want to start. Won't pay for any program they push, not even when it's cash they have to put up in hard times to be paid back later. Just won't help Americans.

I say they fund the line and run the damn this up to the Mississippi River. Iowa seems thrilled to keep bigots like Steve King, support backstabbers like Grassley, and return Terry Branstad and his murdering kid to power. Not to mention this asshat. Let 'em suffer, it's what they apparently want.
