Eric Cantor says the "all-or-nothing approach" is dead in the House.
(CNS)- At a Capitol Hill briefing on Monday, a reporter asked Cantor whether the "jobs package as a package [was] dead?"
Cantor said, "yes," and shortly thereafter said, “It seems as if the president is in full campaign mode. The president continues to say ‘pass my bill in its entirety.’ As I’ve said from the outset, this all-or-nothing approach is just not acceptable.”
Cantor also questioned whether Obama had the votes for his jobs bill in the Democrat-controlled Senate, saying that the president had some “whipping” to do.
In other words, the president attempted (again) to bypass the representatives of the people who sent them there (US)-- maybe he should take another look at that old Schoolhouse Rock video that shows how bills are "passed"-- for a president to demand that HIS "bills" are to be passed as is, shows a complete lack of respect and/or familiarity with "due process".
