Eric "Post Turtle" Cantor's foreign policy speech at the Heritage Foundation an utter fabrication
Eric "Post Turtle" Cantor's foreign policy speech was an utter fabrication, totally devoid of any basis in fact and not merely divorced from reality but estranged as well.

On May 4, 2010, House Minority Whip Eric Cantor gave a speech on foreign policy at the Heritage Foundation in Washington, D.C. Rather than offering any clear policy positions, Cantor relied on Republican talking points and false attacks to argue that President Obama is jeopardizing our national security. However, despite his tough talk (both in his prepared remarks and the Q&A that followed), Cantor's own record shows that he has no idea how to keep America safe."

Cantor Wrongly Claimed The Administration Is Only Paying Attention To Terror Threat "In Limited Spurts"
Rep. Cantor:
Yet with each close encounter, my fear is that the country goes on heightened alert only as long as the media tend to cover it. All too often, that means hours and days rather than permanently. Equally concerning is that the administration and other elected officials tend to give these warnings due attention only in limited spurts.

In reality, President Obama's commitment to fighting Al Qaeda, the Taliban, and other terrorist threats has produced a series of successes at home and around the world.

More myths from Cantor and the reality here: http://mediamattersaction.org/factcheck/201005050001

Cantor and the GOP saw a white rabbit with a watch run by. Alice was waaaay ahead of her time. The things the GOP drinks and eats make their brains smaller. They aren't even looking for something to make them grow.
