With ’06 race heating up, Hostettler backs Ind. aid
By Peter Savodnik

When the House voted in early September for a $1.4 billion relief bill for victims of Hurricane Katrina, Rep. John Hostettler (Ind.) was one of 11 Republicans to oppose it.

Yesterday, the congressman, who is facing a tight race next year, and several other Indiana members asked President Bush for money to help victims of another natural disaster — the tornado that ripped through many areas in his 8th District.


Hostettler spokesman Matt Faraci said opposition to aid for Hurricane Katrina victims and support for victims of this weekend’s tornado was not contradictory.

1. And he is still trying to justify his vote on Katrina

by saying he was voting against waste and abuse of the funds. But he offers no safeguards that disaster funds for Indiana won't be wasted.

2. Ellsworth is a strong candidate in the "Bloody 8th"....This is doable

and I think Sheriff Ellsworth is just the man to do it.

4. Is the tornado area hit normally heavily repuke?

Just wondering, since the righties claimed that New Orleans got hit because of its debauchery . . .
