Remember, folks, Stephanopolous has daily phone calls with Rahm Emanuel to plot Democrat strategy via ABC News. No doubt this is a coordinated effort to cause a rift in the party where there is none.
But Erick's readers aren't buying it:
While Cantor may have gotten around to making Rush’s point, why give Stephy and the MSM the opportunity to take this out of context. Sorry, I don’t feel sorry for Eric. He went along with the media set narrative, and then hoped to make Rush’s points by providing futher context.
I saw Cantor myself on Hannity this week and he was way too timid in his deference to Obama and his agenda.
This is really quite depressing when one considers that Cantor is supposed to be one of our stars!
It would have been better if Cantor had said "Limbaugh makes a good point and here’s why..."
Why is it the the Dems could rip Bush and accuse him of everything, but the GOP must sit there like trained seals and bark on cue to whatever the Libs throw at them?
Are there any heroes in the GOP? Have they all gone into retirement?
What a disapointment. Don’t any of our cowering representatives have the intestinal fortitude to stand up to this idiot Obama?
They all simper and whine and go crawling to whatever summit o summons them too.
Eric Cantor is making the same terrible mistake that Tom DeLay made. He is the whip he needs to be the whip and get his face off national TV. ABC understands that the more Cantor talks the more he will be less effective.
Cantor has to park his ego and get off TV. Let the firebrands go on the air that is what they are for to stir the masses.
Hilarious. I'm reminded of Chris Matthews being perplexed about why Obama would ever want to elevate Limbaugh. Yes, what a terrible strategy that was.
UPDATE #2:
Ben Smith notes today that Erickson has joined Limbaugh in rooting for Obama's failure. (h/t to Setrak) The RedState founder is even trying to recruit new "soldiers" for the RedState Strike Force, "to undermine Barack Obama's agenda and [help] him fail." Oh Noes!!!
