You mean the guy you openly lied to and about didnā€™t call you to ease your pain when you lost? I thought that signing bonus from your new job would have soothed your hurt feelings.

When Obama called Cantor to wish him a happy Passover in spring 2014 Cantor sent out a press release saying that he was insulted by the President calling after earlier in the day stating that the House GOP was blocking immigration reform.

So after rebuffing a call from the President and embarrassing him publicly, Cantor is surprised Obama didnā€™t call him after Cantor lost his primary a couple months later?

Give me a break.

You donā€™t send a sympathy card to a hemorrhoid once itā€™s been excised, do you?

Iā€™m tired of whiny GOP politicians acting like babies.

Grow a spine Cantor. The President is not obligated to call you for anything.

Not calling was the kindest and most gentlemanly think the President could have done. Cantor would have been able to see the smirk on the Presidentā€™s face over the phone. His tender feelings would have been badly hurt.

Cantor does not care about the President calling him or not. His comment was solely to fan the ā€œObama is not a nice, thoughtful personā€ flames to the media and the Teabaggers. In essence, Cantor was doing the classic Teabagger thing: projection.

It is truly sad that the media continue to provide soapboxes to losing GOPers. Time and time again. Cheney, McCain, Romney, Cantor, Cuccinelli, etc.) It is extremely rare that whenever a Democrat is in the same position (losing an election) that the media invites the Democrat to whatever program to give them a soapbox.

What planet is he on? Why should Obama comfort someone who did nothing in office but obstruct and bash Obama? I think he is completely delusional.

Thatā€™s because the corporate owned Media hated Democrats.

several times yesterday, i heard ā€˜reportersā€™ note that obama refused to meet with boehner/mcconnell; and tweety highlighted the comment by mcconnellā€™s aide that obama and mcconnell had only met twice in 6 yearsā€¦ and never once were the past efforts by obama at outreach mentionedā€¦ the phone calls that were refused; the social invitations to the white house declined ā€“ remember the screening of ā€˜lincolnā€™ā€¦

i know this is pointless to again note; but until thereā€™s a responsible media willing to call out the lies and misdirection ā€“ instead of providing the opportunities to spread them ā€“ nothing is going to change.

Reminds me of Newt Gingrich crying about having to be in the back of Air Force One. The entire GOP hates Obama and yet they still cry and complain for being snubbed.

Wow! Justā€“wow. It is difficult to understand the mind of a man like Eric Cantor. What a narcissistic douche-bag. Like, he and Obama were tight? Buddies? Pals? Chums?

This is like the guy who tried to slit your throat complaining that you never came to visit him in prison.
