Cantor Blames Liberal Media For Obama Birth Certificate Conspiracy

The Plum Line:

GOP Rep. Eric Cantor says he's no birther -- he has no questions about Obama's citizenship, his spokesman tells me. But Cantor is placing the blame for the spread of birtherism not on its authors or on those politicians playing along with it, but rather on Chris Matthews, MSNBC, lefty news outlets and bloggers

Well, I can blame the liberal media twice as harshly in half the time! Won't cost the taxpayers a thing...

Yeah, and growing out of Cantor's right shoulder... I think that's our guy, Dave Reichert. We call him "The Silver @ssb@g" round these parts. A handsome, older gentleman. It'd be preferable if he were younger, but whaddayagonna do. I think he used to be a cop. Maybe he could just beat the liberal media with a nightstick! Isn't that how all problems are fixed?

Cantor is another GOP idiot, hope that's not too large of a brush. This guy would say anything to get his face on the tube, he wants to be "the man" so bad it hurts.

My cousin lives in the idiot's district in Virginia, she just flat out hates him.

What a maroon.

Well, I am not surprised that someone who believes the earth is 6000 years old, believes Obama is not a US citizen.

Wow. Eric gives us daily soundbites that sound even more stupid than Michael Steele's. He's never exactly been the sharpest knife in the drawer...

I kinda actually have to agree with him.

I'm so tired of Chris Matthews, Ed, Keith, and Rachel constantly dedicating segments on the ridiculousness of the GOP......yeah, we know their crazy and they offer nothing to help us rebuild-so stop giving them so much attention!!!

They should be focusing their shows on policy issues. They should be debating things like how strong is the public option, will it be watered down, what is the manufacturing strategy, etc etc.

[Clare53]

I agree.

[whit4brains]

I agree too. I'm sick of the GOP nonsense. It's getting so tiresome...

[moongal6]

If it is all the left wing, how do you explain HR 1503? Can you blame HR 1503 the D's? That resolution is what is keeping this alive.
Do your homework.

Suppose I were a birther.

Then would I necessarily be a racist?

Careful.

[orfew]

Brilliant

[openhand]

What's the frequency now, Eric?

[graceland9]

I blame liberal media for spreading those silly tea bag parties. I mean, hellooooo? Rachel - just cut it out, already! And stop spreading those lies about health care reform - they don't want to kill granny, you liberal media elites you!
