Eric Can'tor talks in circles, says nothing

He's tap dancing and spouting weasel words on Morning Scab. "We weren't elected to raise taxes, we were elected to solve problems."

HEY, DICKHEAD! Did it ever occur to you the raising taxes just might help solve the problem?!

He repeats this over and over, then offers his "solution" -- We need growth in the economy. See? It's simple! This guy is a total asshole.

he calls them everything from "health costs" to "entitlements". It's all about "No taxes for the wealthy" and giving rich people all our money and hoping they will hire us.

Hey asshole! If Mitt Romney and his friends can pay zero taxes for ten years, where are the jobs???

Not a word...just five minutes of double-speak about "taxes going up on everybody," but still refused to point to one single thing besides "entitlement reform" to which he was amenable.

Poor little Erie...one of the bigger losers on election day. While he holds onto his "leadership" position, his draconian views...shared by Willard and Ryan Munster were roundly rejected, yet he's got his teabagger comrades still nipping at his tail. If there's gonna be a revolt within the rushpublican caucus, Cantor will be at ground zero, not Boner...and the pressure will be on him to do the compromise. If he fails to get a deal, he gets thrown under the bus by the party elite while if he caves and approves tax hikes he'll get rolled over by his fellow teabaggers. Sucks to be him...but then he sucks overall.
