UPDATE: Congressman Goodlattes office responded to this post: Congressman Goodlatte requested this meeting with SVTPP in May, well before the June 10th primary, as part of his continued outreach to groups throughout the Sixth District. The headline of your post is quite misleading, making it look like the meeting was requested in response to Eric Cantors loss, which is not the case.
The Shenandoah Valley Tea Party Patriots (SVTPP) reported in their June 29 newsletter that they were asked by Congressman Bob Goodlatte (R-6th) to meet to air their concerns, an hour-long event that took place on June 17, just seven days after Majority Leader Eric Cantor lost his reelection race. The tea party newsletter noted:
"Congressman Goodlatte had requested the meeting in order to hear from the Leadership matters the Organization considered important, as well as thoughts and recommendations."

frustration with the lack of border security, the failure to not capture and deport illegal aliens, and Obamas use of Executive Orders to deliberately bring in illegal aliens and provide them amnesty.

I hope he gets more than he bargained for from this meeting.
But where was Congressman Frothymilk?
Does that jackass Drew Johnson at the Washington Times know about this? :-)
