Poor cantor doesn't recognize the REAL AMERICANS. Pass the bill and people will change.
which bill..the obama anti-jobs bill??
he still pushing that bigger government anti-jobs bill
it wont create any private sector jobs...just more government jobs with its 'new' department
the establishment of ANOTHER GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT (bigger government)
SEC. 245. ESTABLISHMENT AND GENERAL AUTHORITY OF AIFA. (a) Establishment of AIFA- The American Infrastructure Financing Authority is established as a wholly owned Government corporation. (b) General Authority of AIFA- AIFA shall provide direct loans and loan guarantees to facilitate infrastructure projects that are both economically viable and of regional or national significance, and shall have such other authority, as provided in this Act.
page 40
in reading it it sounds like a fannie/freddie on steriods
and then there is
SECTION 284. ESTABLISHMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY BROADBAND CORPORATION.
and then this:
SEC. 261. PROJECT REBUILD (a) Direct Appropriations.— There is appropriated, out of any money in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, $15,000,000,000, to remain available until September 30, 2014, for assistance to eligible entities including States and units of general local government (as such terms are defined in section 102 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 (42U.S.C. 5302)), and qualified nonprofit organizations, businesses or consortia of eligible entities for the redevelopment of abandoned and foreclosed-upon properties and for the stabilization of affected neighborhoods.
this to bail out Freddie/Fannie in the rehabbing of homes that are "unmarketable" instead of leaving these to be auctioned "as is" and rehabbed through the private sector?
its not a jobs bill...its an expand socialism bill
After viewing the coverage I belive that this is a group of young ,middle,old who want to be heard. The crowd gets larger in evening as students, workers and even wall streeters come out. It will be interesting to see if the Repub. can continue to bash them. The TP was co-opted by the big money and I believe there leadership is thinking that they need to get away from them. I would not assume that this is going away soon.
No, you are not in the one percent. If you made a billion dollars a year you'd be near the top of the one per centers, taking care of your fortune- you wouldn't be writing drivel here.
You are in the group that cannot comprehend what is happening around you. And that's a mere tad above the stupid people.

To the tune of "Whiskey River Take My Mind", one wonders where Cantor was "duriing the the 'tea party uprising"?
What uprising was that?
How many were arrested?
Where was the uprising?
Tough to argue with imaginary fantasies. I know logic and documentation are useless. Don't know what else to say.
In defense of the original question I have to say Obama did receive a Nobel Peace Prize and transparency awards so maybe a parellel universe does exist and what appears as fantasy is reality.....in some small provincial world.
Liberals become deranged when one tries to explain that the fantasy Utopia they seek to create is unobtainable. Every major social experiment of theirs has been a miserable failure and we are living the results now.
The unions involved have moved away but there members still show up. This is really something unique I advise you all to watch and attend one of the up-coming rallies. As an older person it great to see my kids generation become involved in the discussion
In the same way that the about-to-retire Tea Partiers don't give a rats ass about whether "these punk kids" can find jobs or not , the protesting kids don't give a rats ass about whether the old folks will be able to retire or not.
Y'all tell these kids to "quit protesting and get a job." and they will tell you when they crash your retirement assets, "I guess you should've invested in something more stable."
I know personally, I don't have much sympathy for people who lost their retirements in the 2008 crash. You are supposed to be invested in bonds as you approach retirement, not equities.
Conservatives were fiscally irresponsible, which is why the young people are calling for change.
There's still time for conservatives to repent and return to free market principles, but the Tea Party is setting the right on a path toward generational and class warfare. You call for "small government", but cover for the banksters and refuse to give up your debt-financed Medicare.
yup, and Steve Jobs was a democrat who supported Obama.
Yet Jobs had to take the manufacturing base of his company to China due to liberal policies and regulations. He could not repatriate earnings to build manufacturing here and allow investors to earn dividends due to same.
To be clear, Progressives from both sides of the aisle have had a 20+ year history of being fiscally irresponsible with the taxpayers money and our country's monetary policy. Do not confuse RINOs with fiscal Conservatives as they are not the same animal. The RINO is a sub-species of the Progressive Democrat globalists.
Where is the liberal media when mostly white liberals are protesting? They constantly pointed out the whiteness of the Tea Party protesters, yet fail to make the same conclusion with the Occupy Wall Street liberal hippies. Why the hypocrisy?
After all, Obama was the biggest recipient of Wall Street campaign contributions in political history. Obama also helped bail out the same Wall Street these lily white liberal hippies are ranting about. Yet the liberal media fails to mention their whiteness. Why?
