Eric Cantor Tells the Truth

By Jonathan Zasloff


Really. Explaining why the Republicans are rejecting President Obama’s jobs package, which includes things like rebuilding schools and spending on infrastructure like roads, bridges, etc., Cantor said:

I think at this point Washington has become so dysfunctional that we’ve got to start focusing on the incremental progress we can make. Both sides have their desires to do the big bold things. The problem is they’re just vastly different.

Yes. Absolutely.

The Democrats want to preserve Medicare, and the Republicans want to end it. The Democrats want to protect the environment, and the Republicans want to destroy it. The Democrats want to rebuild schools, and the Republicans don’t. The Republicans, in turn, want to give very large tax cuts to people making more than $250,000 a year, and the Democrats don’t. The Republicans want to empower Wall Street and let the banks do anything they want, and the Democrats don’t.

There is a choice here. People disagree. To say that the politicians should “put aside their differences” and “work things out” ignores basic reality and is willfully blind.

It’s really just that simple. And it is what the campaign must be about.

3. It's a miracle that frogs and vermin don't fall out of his mouth when he opens it

He must have a pact with Satan.

He is viciously hateful at best.

4. Hopefully the president will become aware at some point that there is

no "common ground" with the psychopaths in the GOP.

5. What are there plans??

They have no plans for anything.

What is their Healthcare plan?? Do nothing and overturn the Heathcare Reform Act
What is their jobs plan?? Do nothing - but complain that the President isn't doing enough
What is their plan for Wall Street?? Nothing


You know it's time we call all of them what they are - the Party of NO!! Republicants. Democrats can - Republicants

6. Take all the money (i.e. all the power) and enslave the world

They're inches away from just coming out and saying so.
