Eric Cantor: Poster Boy of the Beltway GOP Crapweasels (Malkin)

Ooouuuch. My sides are still aching after last week's comical announcement by GOP presidential candidate Jeb Bush that he had snagged the coveted endorsement of notorious electoral reject Eric Cantor, the former House majority leader kicked to the curb by disgusted voters in Virginia's 2014 primary election.

Newsflash to GOP elites: Getting Cantor's support is not like landing a prized marlin. It's like hooking one of those hideous bottom-feeding blobfish named the world's ugliest creature.

Inside the Beltway, The Washington Post reported, "Cantor remains well-liked and respected in the Virginia business community and among the Republican donor class in the commonwealth."

But outside the Beltway, the failed Republican revolutionary-turned-Wall Street influence-peddler is a snortle-inducing spectacle on both sides of the political aisle.

In Cantor's endorsement statement Thursday, he praised Bush as a "true conservative leader" who "can re-energize our nation and recapture our greatness." That's empty babble coming from the epitome of an out-of-touch, self-aggrandizing, revolving-door ruling class.

BushCantor share the same smug condescension toward Americans who believe in strict immigration enforcement and putting American workers first. Cantor fecklessly lied to voters during the campaign season about his position(s). He showered his district with anti-illegal immigration flyers that fraudulently portrayed him as standing up to President Obama on amnesty. But on Capitol Hill, he championed the DREAM Act for illegal alien students, huge H-1B visa increases to quench Big Tech's appetite for cheap foreign tech workers, and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce/AFL-CIO's collaboration on massive immigration expansions.

Cantor’s constituents discovered that he wore a yarmulke.

Nope, as a former constituent, I can tell you it had nothing to do with his yarmulke.

Good summary of why he was voted out:

He’s that, too. But his district was a big Klan( I mean Tea Party) center. The voters there figgered out he was a money grubbing Yi...

OK, so Virginia's 7th congressional district is dominated by anti-semitic KKKers who now masquerade as Tea Party conservatives. Well that clears up where you're coming from at least.

I wonder if Ted would have become a gay agenda nut if Barbara was still alive.

[jazusamo]

I personally doubt it because there’s no way in my view she’d have gone along but if so it may have been a marriage breaker.

Well, the way the district is being gerrymandered, they’ll prolly be a blue district pretty soon. Hillary will prolly win there.

How is that different from Cruz's 30 million green cards and a 500% increase in H1B visas?

"Birds of a feather".

When she is good, she is very good. Sharp tongued.

Wow! Look how gerrymandered it is! Yeah, spread paper thin...

Why, it looks just like these!

Yeah, really gerrymandered, batterycommander...

Eric Cantor, Jeb Bush- Birds of a Feather.

huge H-1B visa increases to quench Big Tech's appetite for cheap foreign tech workers

Glad to see conservative stalwart Michelle Malkin identify H-1B as a "Beltway GOP Crapweasel" program.

(Let me know if you're not on this H-1B ping list and want to be added - or are and want to be removed.)

Cantor’s constituents discovered that he wore a yarmulke. They thought he was a good ole boy until they saw him riding around in a black Suburban caravan and wearing a rug on his head.

I think you're on the wrong forum, a-hole. Try Stormfront - they're more your (revolting) style....

[Yossarian]

That isn't a Congressional District...
...that's a T-Rex munching on the Appalachian Mountains!

Amen. Bears repeating.

I’m so sick of these a-holes and screwing around with American lives. Do they just want the middle class to die? I’d like to see both Cantor and Bush penniless looking for a job with a family to support, then only to find a job and have that be taken away and given to an Hb1 visa holder.

[jazusamo]

I agree, it would be a real eye opener for the both of them.

Cantor, Bush... ...and Cruz. I'm not going to let him off the hook on this one.
