Mr. Cantor is as good as the rest of the current RePUBIC-clown party at lying through his teeth. He espouses diversity and his embracing of that principal; however, it would seem that does not extend to a black man occupying that large residence at the end of Pennsylvania Avenue. Do I detect a note of hypocrisy here?

Cantor pulled the same evasive tactic in an interview a few weeks ago when he was asked about the #50 million the republicans wasted on trying to repeal the ACA for the 33rd time. He never responds to the questions he’s asked in interviews and is an expert when it comes to doubletalk. Cantor and republicans like him are the reason the party is having problems getting large numbers of minorities to vote for their politicians. They always find some way to avoid standing up for what is right and end up choosing to alienate those whom they want to vote for them. Everything about Cantor is dishonest and cowardly. Steve Benen noted earlier this week that Cantor’s support for Bachmann places him at odds with Boehner and others in the GOP. As someone who is a Jewish-American, I would think that he’d be the last politician in the country who would be willing to scapegoat anyone else, but I see was wrong.

Can’t rely on Cantor. “That’s allI know”, means that’s all I wish to tell you. Bachman and her Ameerrica make me wonder if she will be relected. Time to hang it up and go into business with her spouse converting the gay person to a heterosexual! Two stand up comics.

“I myself am a member of a minority faith and have enjoyed the ability to pursue and practice that faith unlike I could anywhere else in the world and that is the point here.”

I’m getting so bloody tired and fed up with politicians who insist that your “freedoms” ONLY exist in the USA. That’s just one of the reasons why non-Americans are disgusted with this meme. It’s just not true; and I blame pols in both parties for this. American exceptionalism, in this regard, is merely a myth to fire up feelings of patriotism.

Aside from that, can you really expect anything different from the likes of Cantor and his fellow T-baggers? Just like their leader Romney, the garbage and lies that spew from their mouths are never countered by their interviewers — EVER!
