Congressional republicans are divided over how to pay for hurricane aftermath. With an already bloated budget deficit this year conservative republicans are not liking the additional expenditures the Congress is taking on. Some have called for reversing some of the tax cuts. While others are calling for reducing pork in the transportation bill that was recently passed. Both are not likely to happen. Congressional republicans are nervous about their constituents reaction in the 2006 mid-term elections. Since republicans control both the House and Senate it will be hard to blame the democrats for the spending.
