Technically, Offsetting Disaster Relief Isn't Fiscally Responsible

I suppose if the really cool thing to do now is to offset extra spending with cuts from other parts of the budget, then I would agree with Rand Paul that the first place we should start pulling money away from is the "coffers of our numerous nation-building programs overseas."

Alas, though, if any item needn't be offset it should be disaster funding for our own people.  Before you pat yourself on the back too hard there Randy and repetitively call yourself a Freedom Fighter, how about attaching that amendment to a spending bill where we are spending 10 times that amount on Muslims.
