Glad the people of South Carolina can finally show the nation how to reject federal funds.

Many bills in congress are voted on a number of times. Bills are voted on in committees, then kick back for changes. Once passed by one house the bill is often changed by the other house and kicked back for voting again. Many times a congressman will vote against and later for a bill. The congressman may support the bill but is voting against it because of riders that have been added or defects in the bill that make it ineffective. So anytime a congressman votes against a "God, mother, and apple pie" bill such as this, you need to investigate. In most cases the congressman had a good reason.
 


Does the funding for South Carolina have pork spending in it like Sandy did?
If so then yes he is a hypocrite.
"The Hurricane Sandy package was $60 billion. Forty-seven states got community development funding. They repaired Amtrak corridors unaffected by Sandy. It was a pork-fest.

I'll tell you what

Send me the proposed spending on SC Disaster relief and I will decide if there is an ounce of pork in it


I think that it is still being written up.
You can check it yourself when a bill does come up at Thomas.gov though.
But then you would still have to wait a little bit because the pork gets added later right before it goes up for a vote.
 
Was any intimidate aid denied to the NY area right after Sandy?

No.

The vote was on a bill so laden with pork and bloat, that was set up well after the actual emergency response that it doesn't even qualify as "emergency".

You are comparing apples and oranges.

Where. Cite the pork. Fox saying there is doesn't mean there actually is.

Fox News' Bogus Hunt For Pork In Sandy Bill Continues

One of the most stunning elements in the amendment is $16 billion for the Community Development Block Grant, a slush fund that states and localities can hand out pretty much anywhere they choose. The amendment contains several pages of language ostensibly aimed at restricting use of the funds, but also says they can be applied to “other eligible events in calendar years 2011, 2012, and 2013.” It’s just a guess, but events in 2011 and 2013 are not likely the result of Hurricane Sandy. This is the kind of spending that helps unravel coherent budgeting and contributes to chronic, trillion-dollar deficits.
