25. Cantor preceded the Tea Party

Thu May 3, 2012, 02:36 PM

May 2012

he is from a very red District... it says R... how high?

What finally woke them up was the lack of aid after the quake. IT WAS his district. You send these people to fight for you, not to fight them.

It is truly a matter of sow the wind, reap the whirlwind...

And they will VOTE for another R given the opportunity, because them socialists communists want to spend their money and do some wealth distribution... or something like that.

Ideology... it is strong. Eric will go on to make millions as a lobbyist though. Perhaps come back to run for Preznit.
