Yeah, we need to kill anyone who never made a mistep, ‘cause they’re RINOs.

I think we should run Jesus. Too bad he’s a Jew.

I have no idea about that sight.

This entire kerfluffle started at an ABC blog that misrepresented what Cantor said (much like the original post on this thread does).

This was a trap -— a lie in the question -— set by Stephie, no doubt in one of his daily calls with Rahm Emmanuel.

Cantor is a 100% ACU rated conservative. He was fed a lie by Stephie, and, stupidly, thought he was talking to an honest person.

That is a mistep. The MSM is an ememy.

They are also smart. The MSM wants us to take out our own.

Yeah, I figured that would be your response.

You’re just a tool for Stephie and Rahm Emmauel, used to detroy conservatives.

Bend over baby, ‘cause Rahm just rammed it up your ass.

Yes, I just saw Post #17 and am relieved. I can still like Eric Cantor. :)

I am shocked by how qucjly the less-intelligent Freepers are sucked in by the MSM (not you).

Of course the MSM both lied to Cantor — and lied to us what Cantor said.

The MSM always lies, especially about conservatives. We all know that.

And yet, like dogs going to eat their own vomit, so many Freepers are quick to attack our own.

Cantor wants Obama’s Socialist agenda to succeed? How bizarre.

Great post.

You need to cut-and-paste it to all the threads designed to attack Cantor.

You have to understand that a position like, lets say, What we need to do is we need to put forth solutions to the problems that real families are facing today. And our common-sense, conservative principles of limited government, and the belief in free markets, and the belief that really opportunity can only be created by the private sector are going to undergird our proposals going forward. is not going to be acceptable to a great many people unless it's accompanied by a harsh condemnation of BHO and a vocal wish for him to fail to use as a soundbite. The cult of personality exists on both sides of the aisle.

This is a semantic game. Both Rush and Cantor do not want Obama to succeed in turning the country into a stagnant, nanny state, defenseless European socialist country. Neither men want the USA to fail.

The way Rush expresses this wish is with a rhetorical flair worthy of a performer which he is.

The way Cantor expresses it is in the muted language of a politician.

It is in the interest of the Democrats and the left to make us appear divided where no division exists.

This entire story is false-flag propagando from the Dims.

That ups the anty. It means we are up against the worst media disinformation campaign that we could ever imagine.

The fair haired new face of the GOP fumbled the ball pretty quickly. Many felt he had great potential to bring the Party back to 1994 type glory. He, Steele and Jindal have all stumbled badly.

We keep dividing them into parties. There is only the corrupt "Two-Party Cartel", basically one in the same except when a dividing issues is up for vote it always is the so-called conservative faction that goes with the socialist. Steele lost me this weekend. Jindal has a strike against him by being a Rhodes Scholar & a pathetic performance in prime time.

I listened to it just now and quite frankly without reading other comments here I wasn’t impressed with the tone of his interview. He caved on the “not wanting obama to fail” issue both times. He had an opportunity to inform the MSM koolaide TV audience and he blew it big time.

If he doesn’t take advantage to get the word out on a large public TV show then he has failed the conservative cause just as the other republicans have. The era of Ronald Reagan is not dead. Cantor’s interview comments is nowhere near what I heard from Rush Limbaugh on Saturday.

LOL! Nice homo fetish you have there. Pay your wife (or ‘partner’?) to satisfy that urge you have? Detroy? You need to settle down.

Eric needs to keep up with current events and stop dividing true conservatives if he wants to be a leader. Speak softly and refuse to carry a big stick as the country burns....what leadership. Still mealy mouth with no balls.
