pffffftttt.....
Congressman Eric CANTor is complaining about the fact that legislation goes to the Senate to die...?
That whole thing about reaping what you sow? Yeah, this is what the "REAPING" part looks like....
As as aside, I kinda feel bad for Cantor. He's smart, and gifted in his own way, (much more than Boehner, I feel) but the problem is that no one ever had enough respect for him as a person/student/human being to teach him HOW to think....

1. Good luck with the "kinda feel bad for Cantor".
Right up there with the sympathy for Sister Palin as the victim.

2. oh no no, please don't mistake what I'm saying with that..

although, in retrospect, it could have been worded better....
Cantor and S**** P**** both get to lie in the beds they make, it can't be helped anymore, but if SOMEONE had cared enough about the human minds they possess to teach them how to use them properly, they might have ended up making better, more useful beds, and (perhaps), arguments and laws.
Just saying, that study on critical thinking skills among college students HURT today.

3. their critical thinking skills boil down to this,
does it benefit "ME". if it does, fine, if not it shouldn't happen.

Sorry, but being smart does not equate with being a caring human being.
