Last night Majority Leader Eric Cantor proposed a short term solution to raise the debt ceiling rather than raising taxes as proposed by Obama and democrats. President Obama was so upset with Cantor’s idea that he abruptly stormed out of the meeting with Congressional leaders.
Because of his stand against new taxes on the American people, the Democratic party has pulled out all the stops to target, isolate and demonize Majority Leader Eric Cantor. They are outraged that he will not bow to the Obama regime and endorse their job-killing tax proposals. This is despite the fact that most Americans stand with Cantor and do not support the democrat’s irresponsible spending and proposed tax hikes.
Majority Leader Cantor is taking direct fire. He needs your support.

Call Eric Cantor ( 202.225.4000 ) and tell him he has your support.
Or send Eric a note by going here.

Eric Cantor has no guts, no balls, and as soon as Obama flashes his pearly-whites and winks at Eric, he will start dry-humping Obama’s leg like a horn dog.
Mahdi Al-Dajjal commented:
I guess that makes it pretty clear just how much I “stand with Eric”. Once Cantor shows that his IS INDEED CAPABLE of not caving at the first sign of political pressure, THEN I’ll stand with him. To date, he hasn’t shown anything of the sort. Just an empty suit politician with no backbone.

We are in a no win regarding this issue. Thank you for taking a stand for America!
You rock!

No. 1 and 2 (how appropriate is that) we know you don’t stand with Cantor because of your ever subtle post. Perhaps you instead, bend over for many.

I wonder if Mahdi has found a place here in the U.S. where he can get men to pound his ass in the same fashion they did in whatever sand lot he came from? After all, it’s not Mahdi’s leg they will be humping.

Rep. Cantor:
I’m proud someone on the Hill is trying to do what’s right rather than what’s expedient. When our elected representatives actually display a concern for the future of our nation, I’m even more proud to be an American. Don’t let Obama or his minions win through demagoguery. I support you!

donh commented:
I am proud of Cantor. He was opposed to yet another short term kick the can play , and for him to offer a 6 month plan is a compromise for the good of protecting our credit rating. Obama is playing games sceming this issue for his own re-election… making sure he doesn’t lose the welfare Queen vote.

MEMO TO HARRY (ass) REID: ‘Grownups’ in leadership position usually produce budgets in less than 800 days.
Cantor has. Why haven’t you? Ass!
concreteblue commented:
Cantor is a Tea Party tool and a Wall Street sell-out. The delicious theatre of the absurd we are watching re: Debt ceiling is due to this contradiction…..I’m popping popcorn…..
owl commented:
#8….thanks for the links. I think we will see violence in the streets like never before. Obama’s only strength left is his ability to stir racial tensions, control his media, and then be in charge of justice. Who is going to stop it? You can’t even get the info from the major outlets. They won’t call a terrorist a terrorist, they sure not going to tell you the mobs are black.
Redwine commented:
Call/write to tell Cantor, as well as Boehner, McConnell and Kyl, to hold firm and not bend no matter what. Comrade Barry’s imperious obnoxiousness toward Cantor and the other Reps shows just how ideologically rigid he is.
lakewriter commented:
Tried to send email in support of Majority Leader Cantor but I dont live in his district (from NY) so it will not accept my message. Tried to call the phone number you provided. His voicemail box is full.

Jim, you might want to share this with the Blaze to get more supporters for Eric Cantor. Just a suggestion.

I have e mailed cantor and my rep.
Let them know they are not on a limb.
No to Obama anything, he is evil incarnate.
All he touches whithers and dies. Powder is dry
Just_Saying commented:
His mailbox is full; I’m not in his district, so I’ve left my address, city, zip, but changed the state to VA — his state. It was accepted.
Go, Cantor!! Hold fast!!!

Rose commented:
I don’t support a debt ceiling increase of any kind or size or duration, and I don’t support tax increases, or levies or fines or additional regulations of any kind.
I don’t approve of giving shopaholics more plastic or credit or blood from the turnips.
When I see slashes in frivolous spending, then talk to me about other.
When I see the EPA dismantled, the Interior Dpt, the Ed Dept, SEIU dismantled, ACORN dismantled and prosecuted Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and Federal Reserve all dismantled, UN defunded and moved off American soil, Foreign Aid cut off, Govt staffs cut off, FCC, FDA, NEA/PBS/NPR dismantled White House Staff and budget slashed, Congressional Staff and budget slashed SEIU pensions slashed.
They don’t have a right to an increased Debt Ceiling! We know what they’d do with it.
You think things on American Citizens will be better if the Credit rating for the GOVERNMENT is IMPROVED???
LOL! WHAT A JOKE!!! It will be worse than ever for CITIZENS. He will find many $Trillions more Frivolities before 2012 is over. Close more Energy Plants, shut down more Home Drilling, Slash more Small Business, FUELS more MONSANTO unhealthy hybrids – slash more Private Citizens Small home farming – Open More Borders, fuel more enemy Illegal Aliens…
It either stops, or America is over.
When does NO mean NO!

You don’t have to change the state, it just asks if you want to still send it or instead go to your local congressman’s page.

Eric, I support you. STand strong. You are the best. I hope they make you Speaker of the House. You have our country’s best interests at heart for my children and grandchildren.
Keep up the good work and don’t let those losers get under your skin. You make me proud to be a Republican.
Michelle commented:
keep up the fight!!! The Fed Gov needs to spend within their means just like the rest of us- I couldn’t leave a comment due to not being in your district!
terimwal commented:
#17, I got the message about not living in his district, but it did ask if I wanted to continue and allowed me to do so. Without having to change my address, etc.
Mahdi Al-Dajjal commented:
And I don’t stand with Boehner either. Nor Mitch McConnell. They’re all going to cave. You mark my words. And they’ll then turn around (standing shoulder to shoulder with Reid, Pelosi, and Obama himself) and proceed to tell us how it was the best bipartisan deal they could get and that it’s REALLY in all of our best interests to have raised the debt ceiling in exchange for promises of future spending cuts by the Democrats. Mark my words.
Mahdi Al-Dajjal commented:
The problem is that these men, Cantor, Boehner, McConnel, and so many other Republicans simply don’t have the fire in the belly that it’s going to take to get into the faces of these Democrats and their lapdogs in the media and take the fight to them. Instead, they suffer from the same syndrome that George Bush and John McCain have, i.e., they just want the Democrats to like them.
Recall years ago when Rush was constantly lecturing Republican leaders when Republicans controlled BOTH the House and the Senate during the Bush Administration, because they were busy adopting the Dem’s legislative agenda because they felt sorry for the Democrats who were in the minority and they didn’t want them to feel bad. Heck, they even gave them leadership positions on half the Committees just so they wouldn’t feel left out! Boehner and friends haven’t got the guts NOT to cave-in.

DAMN RIGHT I stand with Cantor. F__k Obama and the Democrats. They deserve NOTHING. I’m sick of Reid and his snimpering little whiney ways. Where’s your budget Ahole? You didn’t do your job and you denigrate Cantor, Ryan, and the Republicans for doing their job. Pelosi is out there saying she is too busy or something. THIS IS THEIR JOB. It is crunch time and they are like a bunch of kindergartners in a sandbox whining about the mean Republicans. F__k them.

Kristin Thomas commented:
He is my Congressman and believe me, he’s taken plenty of crap from the people in this district about standing strong and holding firm to what we want him to do. He still continues to take plenty of flack from those on the far, far right and the left and still gets it done. He’s always had my support and always will. Cantor has been able to do what no other Congressman has managed to date, stand up to Obama, piss him off and make him walk away. For that alone, he deserves our undying support and gratitude. He’s got the key, now the GOP needs to keep turning it until Obama cracks….GO ERIC! THE 7TH DISTRICT OF VA LOVES YOU!!!!!
zanne commented:
Lead on Mr. Cantor. Help us put our fiscal house in order.
Flyover Pilgrim commented:
Sent him a message, Jim. Thank you for the handy link.
RedBeard commented:
I wrote Cantor, and asked him to please hold firm. Told him that I support him as long as he’s opposing Obama.
Will he cave? I have no idea. But a few million similar messages might stiffen his backbone a bit, and certainly can’t hurt.
I plan to call his office today, as well.
We don’t need to blindly support Republicans; that is foolish. But getting behind them and pushing a bit, yes.
n900mixalot commented:
Cantor’s Wall Street buddies will not let him stop the debt ceiling from being raised.
Comcast ($33,950) is a huge cable company, and is the largest residential cable provider. Does Comcast provide service in your area? Is Comcast working to do so in rural areas? Not without government subsidies.
McGuire Woods ($33,850) is a massive global finance law firm. Bank of America’s Leasing and Capitol division is a huge client of theirs. They snagged $185,000 from an American Steel Company’s Chapter 11 bankruptcy estate. How many jobs do you think were lost with that one alone?
Goldman Sachs ($27,650) … well we all know these guys. They’re his FOURTH highest contributor.
Putting your faith in someone like this is just as bad as other people putting their faith in every other politician, regardless of their party affiliation.
You people need to do some RESEARCH.
I Bet for America...Not Against It commented:
Cantor WANTS us to default. Go look at the FACTS! He is OWNED by big corporations and is vying against the national Treasury in hopes if we default…HE will become massively rich like the traitors he represents! It is false to state he is SAVING all Americans from increased taxes because he is NOT.
People of Virginia…vote this guy OUT in 2012! I for one am an active ‘member’ of Americans Against the Re-election of Eric Cantor!

Janice Linderman commented:
DO NOT COMPROMISE ON THE DEBT LIMIT! MCCONNELS’S FIX IS NOT ACCEPTABLE! PUT YOUR NAME IN OUR HISTORY BOOKS THAT YOU AND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY FINALLY GOT SOME BALLS AND STOOD UP FOR WHAT IS RIGHT AND FOR THE GOOD OF ALL CITIZENS IN THE USA. OBAMA TALKS OUT OF 2 SIDES OF HIS MOUTH. HE LETS YOU THINK THIS AND THEN HE GOES TOTALLY AGAINST THE PEOPLE BECAUSE HE HAS NO RESPECT OF THE PEOPLE, THE BILL OF RIGHTS, AND THE CONSTITUTION. OBAMA AND HIS FOLLOWERS DO NOT COMPROMISE AND THEY HAVE PROVED IT OVER AND OVER! HARRY REID AND NANCY POLOSI PROVED THAT OVER AND OVER. HER QUOTE ” JUST VOTE FOR THE BILL WHETHER YOU HAVE READ IT OR NOT AND THEN WE WILL TELL YOU WHAT IS IN IT!!!” IT WORKED! STAY STRONG, BE COMMITTED, AND CUT UP THE CREDIT CARD, PAY OUR DEBTS TO CHINA, INDIA AND THE REST, CUT THE FAT FROM THE GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES THAT LIVE OFF THE BACKS OF THE TAX PAYER. BREAK THE UNIONS! THE MONEY THEY COLLECT ISN’T GOING TO THE PEOPLES BENEFIT, IT’S GOING TO THE BIS BOSSES INCREASE IN THEIR SALARIES ND POLITICAL PAYOFFS IN WASHINGTON WITH THE DEMOCRATS SEND BACK ILLEGALS WHO NEVER INTEND TO BECOME CITIZENS, CUT OFF THE WELFARE CHECKS FOR THE ILLEGALS. A NUMBER OF STATES ARE BROKE BECAUSE OF THE LARGE AMOUNT OF THEM GETTING BENEFITS, JOBS FOR CASH, AND THEN SEND THEIR MONEY TO MEXICO. STOP ALL THE FUNDING OVERSEAS. WE’RE BROKE AND NOW THE DOLLARS WE HAVE GIVEN THEM HAS MADE THEM FINANCIALLY STRONG AND THEY HAVE RISEN ABOVE US WITH OUR DOLLARS! IT’S TIME THE INFRASTRUCTURE HERE IS GETTING OUR DOLLARS, SMALL BUSINESS’S AND ALL BUSINESS’S HERE ARE TAXED TO DEATH, EPA RESTRICTIONS ARE SO RIDICULOUS, GLOBAL TRADE IS OUT OF PROPORTIONS. CHINA IS A GOOD EXAMPLE. OUR GOVERNMENT, CONGRESS AND OTHER STATE AND LOCAL OFFICIALS DON’T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE COMMUNIST COUNTRIES AND DICTATORSHIPS DON’T LIKE US BUT SURE LIKE OUR MONEY AND THEY ARE ARE LAUGHING ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK. IT’S TIME THAT THE MONEY STAYS IN THE COUNTRY TO PROTECT US MILITARILY, FINANCIALLY, BRING MANUFACTURING BACK INTO THIS COUNTRY SO THERE ARE JOBS, DRILL FOR OIL HERE, ASSIST OLDER REFINERIES, COAL MINES, AND ETC. TO IMPROVE THEIR BUSINESS’S INSTEAD OF SENDING LOT OF MONEY TO OTHER COUNTRIES AS CHINA, INDIA, AND ETC. TO HELP THEM WHEN THEY ARE FINANCIALLY OK AND WE ARE 560 BILLION IN THE MINUS. DOES ANYONE IN THE CONGRESS AND THE GOVERNMENT EVER BALANCE THEIR CHECKBOOKS? IN WATCHING THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES YESTERDAY, ONE REPRESENTATIVE INTRODUCED A BILL THAT WAS RECOMMENDED BY THE ADMINISTRATION AND THE DEPT OF EDUCATION TO SPEND 200,000.00 TO TEACH KIDS TO TURN OUT THE LIGHTS. INSTALL A TWEAKY BILL OF A BIRD IN CLASS ROOMS SO KIDS CAN LEARN TO TURN OFF THE LIGHTS. ARE THEY FOR REAL WHEN WE ARE SO IN DEBT AND EVERY 40-43 CENTS OF A $1.00 IS BORROWED, PLUS INTEREST PAID FOR SUCH A BILL?? THANK GOD SOMEONE WITH SOME COMMON SENSE GOT UP AND SAID IT WAS THE PARENTS JOB TO TEACH THIS TO A CHILD. RIGHT NOW THE GOVERNMENT IS TELLING US WHAT KIND OF LIGHT BULB WE CAN HAVE IN A HOUSE EVEN THOUGH STUDIES HAVE PROVEN THAT THEY ARE CANCER INDUCING AND THE MERCURY IN THEM IS AN ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEM. THEY HAVE TO BE DISPOSED OF ONLY IN A CERTAIN WAY BECAUSE OF THE MERCURY CONTAMINATION. GOD FORBID YOU SHOULD BREAK ONE IN THE HOUSE. OUR BILL OF RIGHTS WAS VIOLATED IN THIS LAW. IT SHOULD BE REPEALED ! WE NEED TO GET RID OF ALL THE EARMARKS. WHEN THE REPUBLICANS TOOK OVER THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES IT WAS THE BIG DEAL OF UNEMPLOYMENT EXTENSIONS AND WHAT HAPPENED. IN ORDER TO GET THAT DONE, THE REPUBLICANS CAVED IN AND OBAMA GOT HIS EAR MARKS FOR THE MOVIE INDUSTRY. i GUESS DISNEY LAND GOT SOME OF THAT NOW THAT MICHELLE IS DANCING ON THE TV SCREEN AND TALKING ABOUT HOW TO MEASURE OUR FOOD. A ANOTHER ITEM IS “CARS 2″ WITH LIGHTNING MCQUEEN AND MATER. ONE SCENE IS WHEN ALL THE OLDER CARS ARE LINED UP AND ABOVE THE SCENE THERE IS A BIG GUN SHOOTING THE OLDER CARS BECAUSE THEY ARE BAD BECAUSE THEY USE GAS AND ANOTHER PLACE THE MECHANIC FIXED THE CAR WITH OTHER STUFF BUT NOTHING SAID OF WHAT IT WAS
BUT GAVE A NOD AND SMILE. NOTHING LIKE TRAINING THEM EARLY TO THINK HOW BAD A CAR USING GAS IS! ANOTHER EAR MARK WAS TO LAS VEGAS. ANOTHER EARMARK WAS TO
LOUISIANNA TO SHUT UP THE COMPLAINTS COMING FROM HER. NOT GOOD FOR THE REPUBLICANS BECAUSE IT IS GOING TO BITE THEM IN THE COMING ELECTION.EVERYONE’S RECORD OF VOTING WILL TELL THE STORY FOR ALL UP FOR ELECTION. OBAMA GOT HIS WAY AGAIN !!! STAY STRONG AND COMMITTED! DON’T JUST SAY IT, DO IT.
