Statement from Eric Cantor
"I was deeply horrified to learn today of the shooting of Representative Gabrielle Gifford and others in Tucson. Our thoughts and prayers are with Congresswoman Giffords and her family, her staff, and the residents of Tucson on this sad day. As this serious situation continues to develop, I remain in close communication with Democratic leaders, the Speaker's office and the Sergeant at Arms. We will remain in constant communication regarding any schedule changes"

9. No, no and no.
It was the office of a PR firm he sometimes employed, down in Richmond (not his district).

The police also determined that it was a stray bullet.

Cantor would use any incident if he thought it was to his advantage and could get away with it.

In this particular case, the MSM took him at his word, blew the story completely out of proportion and never did a decent retraction.

6. At least he was decent enough
To say Democratic in instead of his usual "Democrat" in the statement.

10. It is telling how fast these repugs are jumping up to praise her and
distance themselves from their own party ideas. What I am really angry about this coverage is that all they are talking to are repugs. Usual spin.
