Eric Cantor, our F*ckwit of the week.

After this douchenozzle's comments/statements about the tornado victims needing FEMA or federal help to overcome the horrific disasters that have been happening this month..we now have this week, if not this month's fuckwit..Eric Cantor. From the ThinkProgress link above:

President Obama pledged full support to the state Monday, telling survivors, “We’re here with you. We’re going to stay by you.”House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA), however, said that before Congress approved federal funds for disaster relief, it had to offset the spending with cuts to other programs. The Washington Times reports:

House Majority Leader Eric Cantor said Monday that if Congress passes an emergency spending bill to help Missouri’s tornado victims, the extra money will have to be cut from somewhere else.
“If there is support for a supplemental, it would be accompanied by support for having pay-fors to that supplemental,” Mr. Cantor, Virginia Republican, told reporters at the Capitol. The term “pay-fors” is used by lawmakers to signal cuts or tax increases used to pay for new spending.

In 2005, Republicans criticized then-House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-TX) for his willingness to fund relief in the wake of Hurricane Katrina by adding to the deficit. “It is right to borrow to pay for it,” he said at the time, explaining that cuts could “attack” the economy. 

Even Hot-tub Tommy realized that help was needed when something this horrific happens to people where they live and by no fault of their own. 

Why the fuck doesn't Cantor?

Because for him, these people are political pawns in his game against Obama and the deficit and/or the budget. For him it's political.

Yo..asshole..this is a moral issue. It has nothing to do with party lines or economics. These tornado's hit people from all income levels, all walks of life for christs sake.

Besides being a fuckwit, Cantor is a clown..a disgusting clown. He has no moral high ground evidently. I just can not believe he would make such insensitive comments after such a horrific disaster that has so far taken the lives of 125 people in Joplin..on one afternoon in one town.

Tornado season has just begun and so far, it's looking like the worst since they started keeping stats..in 1950. It started in the friggin winter and it's only going to get worse. Today there are MORE of them landing..just turn on the weather channel or any 24/7 news channel and you can watch it live in living color Eric!

Denise at Pass the Doucheys has a good piece up on the same topic..but she also has photos and first person videos of the tornado, which btw, I could not watch. My son, who lives in tornado alley, has told me what these places look like after the tornado has passed through, the people standing next to what used to be their homes..even he was torn up and my kid doesn't get emotional easy...unlike his mom.

Enjoy this award Eric Cantor, no one deserves it as much as you do..no one..and gawd knows there are a shitload of fuckwits lately.

Right politicizes failed NYC bombing.

I really had hoped these fuckwits would just keep their pieholes shut...but alas..that was not to be the case. What is their biggest whine?

That law enforcement mirandized the suspect, an American citizen.

John McCain was right there, with the rightwing nutters, bitching about it. The pompous windbag really went off. From VF:

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said reading Shahzad his Miranda rights would be a ‘mistake,’” according to CBS News. Quoth McCain, “Don't give this guy his Miranda rights until we find out what it's all about.” 

 It isn't an option, mirandizing a suspect, its part of our laws and of course part of the due process every American is given. Pander much to the nutters McCain?

Next up we have that massive moron Peter King. That jackass really should keep his trap shut as he shows his ignorance every single fucking time he says anything. From HuffPo:

"I hope that [Attorney General Eric] Holder did discuss this with the intelligence community. If they believe they got enough from him, how much more should they get? Did they Mirandize him? I know he's an American citizen but still," King said.

Christ, Petey..one more time...its not fucking optional you douche nozzle.  What part of 'due process' do you not understand moron?

Now, we get to Eric Cantor, scumbag extraordinaire.  In a speech to the nutters at the Heritage Foundation, Eric went batshit crazy, bitching about the Obama administration's handling of national security, the Underwear Bomber and the Times Sq bomber. It's obvious Cantor was pandering to the wingnut base, so why link to his bullshit? Thanks for politicizing national security you friggin, pathetic idiot.

A sane voice in the whole mess is retired General Paul Eaton. He was a guest last night on Countdown. Part of the transcript is here on the National Security Network site, of which Gen Eaton is a member. A shot from General Eaton at the fuckwitted Republicans:

OLBERMANN: If you are the FBI agent and the police officers who spent 53 hours straight on the manhunt that was successful and as Mike Sheehan pointed out, you throw in the time of the flight that they had as a pad to Dubai, they didn`t catch him at the last second before he left the country or would have gotten out of the grasp of this country. They got him about a day before and got him after about two days and a few hours` work. What would it feel like to have done this job and have lawmakers back at home of any stripe criticizing you in the job that you just did?

EATON: Well, not good is the answer. Since January of 2009, we have seen a relentless attack on our FBI, on our armed services, on our policemen by the Republican Party. Any opportunity that they can find to see a seam to get in there and lay in an attack they have pursued. And, frankly, as a retired soldier and as a guy who supports my police, who supports my FBI, I want them to cut it out.

Cut it out? M'dear Gen. Eaton....these fuckers have no intention of cutting it out. It' all "the party of no" has...attacking and politicizing everything the Obama administration does. The best line I have heard about the Rethugs and their zest to torture and disregard due process was borrowed by Eaton and belongs to Navy Jag admiral named John Hudson:

And he said, you know, the use of torture and these techniques is -- that`s the tool of the stupid, the lazy and the pseudo tough.

Bravo sir...bravo! Thank you Gen. Eaton and John Hudson. Bless you gents! Eaton's interview below:
