Eric Cantor: "Obama won't listen to our make believe ideas"
Minority Whip Eric Cantor bemoans the fact that the Obama administration won't include them in health care reform policy discussions.
Yeah...what leader of the free world wouldn't want to take time out of his busy schedule to talk about money for mice, birth certificates, death panels and make believe ideas for health care reform?
No matter what the cry is from the White House, no matter what the president claims, they have not engaged with us," he said.
"The White House at this point has shut down, as far as any kind of engagement. I think that the last time that we as a Republican leadership were at the White House was in May, and that's when they called us in at the beginning of the health care discussion so that they could get our ideas," Mr. Cantor said. "The president enlisted us and said we want your ideas. [Minority Leader John A.] Boehner and I sent a letter to the White House in response to that request. Nothing."
