Where's Eric Cantor?

  • Utter Failure

    Number of comments: 1
    Eric Cantor, noted partisan hack and corrupt politician, spoke at the recent job fair he hosted in Culpeper, Virginia and called the stimulus plan an “utter failure.” This is daffy on a number of levels.  First off, many of the employers at Cantor’s job fair weren’t actually hiring.  Some might say [...]

  • Stimulus FTW

    Call it a zombie lie, and Eric Cantor is its zombie liar. Since he successfully pressured every Republican representative to vote against fixing the economy, Cantor has been claiming that the stimulus has “failed.”  Despite the long-term nature of it, and despite the obvious signs of the economy rectifying itself after [...]

  • Party of No’s Enforcer

    Number of comments: 1
    I wrote yesterday about the pathetic charade Eric Cantor engaged in over the “doc fix,” the permanent measure to make sure Medicare doesn’t slash payments to doctors.  Cantor and other Republicans on the Ways and Means Committee supported it before, yet for political reasons they decided yesterday  to oppose the [...]

  • Doc Fits

    Number of comments: 2
    In case you weren’t paying attention, Congress today passed a “doc fix” for health care, preventing a 21% cut in Medicare payments to doctors.  This is what’s considered “a good thing.”  Unless of course you’re Eric Cantor and trying to make a political point. See, Eric Cantor supported it several months [...]

  • Eric the Hypocrite

    Number of comments: 1
    So, yeah, basically what I said yesterday.  The DCCC is leveling a new attack on Cantor for his “hypocrisy.” I would throw in “liar” but you know, different strokes. The Washington Post reports that, once again, a showpiece job fair drummed up for a cushy Cantor photo op, is featuring a [...]

  • Seriously?

    So every time you see Eric Cantor, as he did today, squawking about “jobs” and “deficit,” please keep in mind some simple facts about Mr. Cantor. First, Eric Cantor was a loyal lieutenant in the Bush regime, helping to force through the massive deficit spending in the form of tax cuts [...]

  • Constituents Mad!

    Number of comments: 4
    I get a lot of email from people, both inside and outside the district, bemoaning the fact that such a pathetic representative pretends to serve their interest in Washington, DC while not actually representing anyone but himself and his cronies.  Some I have printed before, more I will in the [...]

  • Does Cantor Support Abortion?

    Lee Fang asks the question of the day: Does Eric Cantor provide abortion services for his employees? See, the right wing is up in arms that, after fighting to prohibit any federally subsidized insurance money from abortion services, the Republican National Committee’s own employee insurance program provides abortion services to those [...]

  • ADL Calls Out Cantor

    Number of comments: 10
    The Anti-Defamation League, a non-partisan NGO committed to fighting anti-Semitism and bigotry around the world, has called out Republican leadership, especially Eric Cantor, for his refusal to forcefully condemn the hate-filled signs featured by Republican operatives in their health care protest at the US Capitol. In the letter they addressed to [...]

  • High School Journalism

    Number of comments: 1
    Really, CNN?  This is what you consider news? CNN.com has a breathless profile piece on Eric Cantor, shedding basically no insight into either him or his politics.  The thrust of the piece is that Cantor’s colleagues believes he has his sights higher than Congress.  Seriously.  That’s it.  Had anyone at CNN [...]

  • FLASHBACK: Matthews Eviscerates Cantor

    Number of comments: 2
    Slow day in Cantor news.  He’s probably off doing fundraisers or something.  So here’s an old gem for your viewing pleasure. Chris Matthews sure loves making inadequate Republicans look like babbling dunces from time to time. From February, 2007 Matthews tried to pin Cantor down on whether or not he thought we [...]

  • To Holocaust or Not To Holocaust

    Number of comments: 1
    On the same day he was getting rave reports in the press for his mild rebuke of those who invoke the Holocaust in discussing American politics, Eric Cantor seems to have invoked the Holocaust in discussing American politics. Speaking at the Jewish Federations of North America General Assembly yesterday, Cantor spoke [...]

  • A Bridge Too Far

    Number of comments: 2
    Here’s the video of Eric Cantor on Bloomberg expressing mild displeasure with references to Hitler and the Holocaust (referenced before). Apparently, Rush Limbaugh went just a little bit too far for Mr. Cantor by claiming that Obama is like Adolf Hitler and that health care reform is similar to Nazism.  Everything [...]

  • Whip Fail

    Number of comments: 1
    After Cantor promised this whole week that the Democratic healthcare bill would get no Republican votes… After Cantor twisted his arm on the House floor… Joseph Cao, Republican representative from Louisiana, voted for the Democratic healthcare bill which just passed 220-215. A good day for America, and, yes, Mr. Boehner, the future is [...]

  • Intelligence Deficit

    Eric Cantor, noted liar, speaking in defense of doing nothing to improve health care, made the false claim that the House health care bill (all 2,000 pages of it!) increases the deficit. False.  The Democrats’ bill will decrease the deficit by over $100 billion.  In fact it saves $36 billion more [...]

  • Out of Time

    Sometimes I struggle, I’ll admit.  I struggle to find the words to express how truly vapid and out of touch Eric Cantor is.  How low this congressman has become.  Sure, he’s corrupt, rotten to the core, and in it not to help people but only to expand his own political [...]

  • Insolence!

    Eric Cantor, under fire for standing by idly while extremist Republicans brandished anti-Semitic, violent, and generally insulting signs mere yards from where he was standing, has taken the bold step of calling out Rush Limbaugh and firmly denouncing those extremists! HAHA!  Just kidding.  You see, Eric Cantor is a coward, so [...]

  • Will Cantor Denounce His Own Party?

    Number of comments: 3
    At the great teabag circle jerk of yesterday on Capitol Hill, the crazy came out to play.  And as usual when you get this number of dingbats, wingnuts, and general freaks in one area, at least some anti-Semitism is bound to break out.  See also:  the picture above referencing an [...]

  • GOP Health Plan LOL!

    Number of comments: 4
    Surprisingly, the House Republicans after months and months of dithering, promising a bill was imminent, then backing down, have FINALLY released a bill to counter the Democrats’ proposals.  Unsurprisingly, it is laughably bad. The early reports the other day were harsh, including that the plan refused to prohibit insurers from reject [...]

  • Start the Races

    With the 2009 mid-mid-term elections mercifully behind us, it’s time to start the focus like a laser on November, 2010.  2009 resulted in unequivocal gains for the Republicans in Virginia, although nationwide it was more of a wash, with Republicans adding two governors and Democrats picking up two more desperately [...]
