Cantor Booed in Home District

Eric Cantor was booed in his home district this morning as party activists rejected his choice to lead Virginia’s 7th Congressional District Republican Committee in favor of a Tea Partier. Cantor was left sputtering:

“It is easy to sit in the rarified environs of academia, in the ivory towers of a college campus with no accountability and no consequence. When you throw stones,” Cantor said, “you throw stones at all of us who are working every day to make a difference.”

He was referring to his primary opponent, David Brat, who is a professor of economics at Randolph-Macon College. But, really, there isn't anything "academic" about the opposition to Cantor within his own party.

1. When you let the lunatics run the asylum this is what happens.

[BeyondGeography]

2. That would make it Brat v. Brat then

Lovely.

[Ed Suspicious]

3. Cantor holds a JD and a masters degree and is married to a JD holding wife. He has gained an

awful lot of success thanks to school to be denigrating academia.

[elleng]

6. But that's what they DO,

create bogeymen, he has NOTHING more to say.

[Ikonoklast]

34. And says that lawyers are screwing up government.

Typical Republican hypocrite.

[tularetom]

4. LOLOLOL!!

The nuts he helped into office have turned around and bitten him in the ass.

Whiny little bastard.

5. When hate and racism are not enough....you get the Tea Party wanting your nuts! nt

[SummerSnow]

7. Theyre tired of your shit..

[calimary]

9. "...at all of us who are working every day to try to make a difference"?????????

Since when? When Nancy Pelosi was Speaker, she did away with the leisurely country-club-bankers' hours of the previous GOP House: In sometime Tuesday, work the whole day Wednesday, out sometime Thursday - and on to another nice long weekend! She said no more of that - everybody puts in FIVE DAYS A WEEK. HERE. And they grumbled and groused and pouted like a bunch of five-year-olds. WHAT work? I don't call it work when you sit around and criticize and just say "no" to everything all the time. I call that being a lazy good-for-nothing MOOCHER - on the taxpayers' tab!

28. Amen sister

The repukes really have no idea of what it's like to work. Personally, I think each and every member of Congress should be required to work at least one year at manual labor. The repukes should have to work for minimum wage. Always.

10. His toupee is terrible

You can really see where it starts in that photo.

I guess it matches, though - he's a terrible person and politician. To quote Lewis Black's famous statement "Join youtube where you can make comments like Eric Cantor looks like the manager of the asshole store."

And LOL - it's live from "Short Pump, VA".

[Skidmore]

14. Forget his toupee...

his teeth are scary. Like those teeth that you wind up and they clack away.

[Aerows]

15. There is so much awful

wrapped up in that one human being, it's amazing that he isn't called "The Abominable No-Man"

[libodem]

25. LOLOLOL

Going through this thread from the bottom up.

[MADem]

11. The sad thing is, he was booed for not being crazy ENOUGH...! nt

[TreasonousBastard]

13. !

[Cha]

17. I know, huh? That was

disappointing! It's only madhatters eating madhatters.

[rurallib]

18. Booed in his home district by his own party at a party meeting

that's some kind of trifecta, ain't it?

[etherealtruth]

30. That is the truly frightening thing

Eric cantor is NOT deranged enough for these folk

[ancianita]

12. You know, something tells me that our partisans are winning the message war.

It's just taken a long time.

[BrotherIvan]

16. I'm surprised his image shows up in a photograph

I thought the soulless and undead could not be captured by a camera. Hm, learn something new every day.

[libodem]

23. Spawn of Satan

And smoke and mirrors makes some images appear.

[Aerows]

29. I'm betting on a painted cutout

because he is so wooden and processed he could only be a pressboard facade.

[rurallib]

19. Hoping EarlG can get a cartoon out of this

I would love to see his take

[libodem]

20. Effing Koch head

22. Mark of the beast? :)

[libodem]

27. Pretty sure

[itsrobert]

31. Pretty funny. Did you make that yourself?

You got talent.

[Helen Borg]

21. It' embarassing that this bozo

has the same last name as Georg Ferdinand Ludwig Philipp Cantor, the father of set theory!

[libodem]

24. He makes my blood boil

26. Bought and paid for by Wall Street and the Kochs

Hopefully even the tea partiers can see that. Cantor cares nothing for the average person, tea or not, except how he can use them as tools to advance the power of the Kochs and Wall Street.

32. Cantor booed raised a Yeah...Huzzah..

people are finally figuring he is one of the main culprits. He needs to have this done at every event and every sighting.

[3catwoman3]

33. Working every day to make a difference?

0 for 2 on that, Mr. Cantor. Certainly not working every day, and definitely not making beneficial difference in people's lives. What a crock!

[mucifer]

35. Um this is a bad thing if they are looking for someone even more evil.
