Cantor complains Pelosi refuses to meet with him


Cantor complains Pelosi refuses to meet with him
By Molly K. Hooper and Bob Cusack
Posted: 06/08/09 08:35 PM


Rep. Eric Cantor (R-Va.) says he has requested to meet privately with Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) this year, but has been repeatedly rebuffed.

In an interview with The Hill, the minority whip said, “I have been told that Speaker Pelosi doesn’t like to meet with Republicans … I would say that is the case in my instance. I have put in requests to meet with her and have yet to be responded to.”

Hours later, Cantor would be on the House floor, questioning whether the Speaker should continue to receive intelligence briefings.

In his floor comments, Cantor grilled Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.), claiming that Pelosi should no longer receive briefings in the wake of her accusation that the CIA lied to her about the use of torture in 2003.

The Hoyer-Cantor exchange became testy, with Hoyer asserting that he is confounded by Cantor’s logic, calling it “incomprehensible.”

4. Cantor is becoming unhinged as he realizes he is NOT the point man
anymore.

His nonsensical babbling must have embarrassed even the loonies on the right.

They picked Palin to be the designated nutcase TV nonsense spewer.

5. Anyone venture a guess on how long until Cantor is caught with strippers changing his diapers
or chasing the Senate Pages around the table?

I say Mid October.

7. What, is he suggesting that Pelosi has
legitimate uses for her time? Scandalous. NOT.

Cantor is a posturing fool. Sad that he holds a seat that could be otherwise occupied by a person of ability and sound purpose.
