That’s an interesting spin that they put on Cantor’s comments, and not quite what he said.
I agree! When I actually watched the video, I felt a bit better about Cantor. He was clearly trying to stay out of the trap that David Gregory was trying so desperately to lay for him. Cantor, on his worst day, is more intelligent than David Gregory has ever been.
He simply said that the American people want the Rs to focus on the President’s agenda, which has NOT improved our economy or created jobs. He woudn’t come right out and say “I want to see his birth certificate and I want to see it now!” but he also refused to say than everyone who questions any aspect of the Obambi narrative is crazy, which is what Gregory was trying to force him to do.
Congress was destroyed in the public eye when they went after Bill Clnton for perjury because everyone in the media kept harping on “It’s just about sex after all.” (Which it WASN”T) They have learned their lesson well and are not going to make any accusations unless they know they have the proof, which they don’t at this point in time.
I am hoping that those in talk radio (Rush, Hannity, etc) and on the blogs will push this issue forward and that some enterprising reporter will decide he’s like a Pulitzer...then the Rs in the House can’t be blamed by the media when Obama has to resign!
