I heard King say that, and I laughed and laughed! Kinda scary when the crazy people are inside the walls, isn't it, shitbird? Welp, this will ensure I re-up my XMRadio subscription, POTUS and CSPAN are just going to be a delight for the last 6 months of this congress.

OK, this is priceless... <a href="http://www.politico.com/sto..." target="_blank">" rel="nofollow noopener" title="http://www.politico.com/story/2014/06/eric-cantor...">http://www.politico.com/sto...

About 72 percent of registered voters in Cantor’s district polled on Tuesday said they either “strongly” or “somewhat” support immigration reform ...according to a poll by the left-leaning firm Public Policy Polling and commissioned by the liberal advocacy group Americans United for Change.

<b>Looking just at Republicans in Cantor’s district, the poll found that 70 percent of GOP registered voters would support such a plan, while 27 percent would oppose.</b>

Meanwhile, Cantor was deeply unpopular in his district, the PPP poll found. About 63 percent of those surveyed in his district said they did not approve of the job Cantor has been doing, with 30 percent of registered voters approving.

"Brat was backed by the Tea Party. In addition to being backed by prominent conservatives (Ann Coulter, Laura Ingraham), Brat was backed by grass-roots Tea Party groups as well."

"Backed by" apparently doesn't include "received money from." Duh Gov' is crowing about this victory - but her SarahPAC in 1Q2014 gave Brat $0.

These "conservatives" didn't back Brat up with the essential upfront whipout.

Somebody needs to pay David Brat to say: "I'm not a witch."

Be sure to video tape.

Saw a Cantor sign this morning, vandalized with "LOSER" in black spray paint.

It was the replacement for one that had been vandalized in the same fashion several weeks ago with "ASSHOLE"

And as Victor Frankenstein looked at the body of his beloved Elizabeth, murdered by the very thing that he had created... Yep, it doesn't get much better than this, does it?
