CNN Asks Cantor If Loss Due to Anti-Semitism
2014-06-16
A rhino kvetsher? No, of course not. It's anti-Semitism that's to blame. Why do you think I'm doing this interview ?
"Perhaps if we shout, 'Emanuel Goldstein,' very loudly, they'll forget about Iraq, boss."
"Can't hurt, kid. Everyone knows Jews are like dogs for that stuff."

#8  Â“Listen, IÂ’m not into blaming anybody,” he began, “but I will say that the suggestion that I shouldÂ’ve been traded to the Taliban for Sgt. Bergdahl really is not a serious contribution to any public policy debate.”

I agree. It would have been much better to trade McCain or Boehner.

#6  Cantor finds no humour in Laura Ingraham comment.

"Cantor kept his smile but displayed a rare flash of anger. “Listen, I’m not into blaming anybody,” he began, “but I will say that the suggestion that I should’ve been traded to the Taliban for Sgt. Bergdahl really is not a serious contribution to any public policy debate.”

#5  Anti-Semitism - not that it doesn't exist, but if spun properly, it will look like Racism and, by extension, smear the victor and his supporters.

I would expect nothing less.

#4  Cantor, oh. He's Jewish then I guess?

#3  Neither antisemitism nor philosemitism were factors in the honourable Congressman's career. The question is being raised by left-wing rags like CNN and the New York Times, and by Jewish Democratic activists seeking to tar Republicans now with what they would not credit them then.

#2  Need a spinning top graphic. You know, that's a little more civilized than simply calling bullshit.

#1  Cantor was elected in my conservative district several times. If anything the district has been infiltrated by Northeast liberals. If anti-semitism is the issue then it would be the new folks moving into the district causing the difference.

During the election the only person mentioning Dave Brat was Cantor. Brat had no money and no campaign.
