Getting to Know Your House GOP Leadership
Posted by Michael Cohen

For those of you not following the FISA debate in Congress, House Republicans have tried to derail the bill by putting a poison pill amendment in the legislation. They've been successful, as today House Democrats were forced to withdraw the bill. Over at Talking Points Memo, Greg Sargent has the details.

The instigator of this effort is one, Eric Cantor, Chief Deputy Republican Whip. I don't know a lot about Rep. Cantor, but this quote from his web site should tell me and you all we need to know about him:

House Democrats have pulled the FISA bill. They are so desperately against allowing our intelligence agencies to fight OBL and AQ, that they pulled the entire bill to prevent a vote.

Yes, you read the correctly. Rep. Cantor, whose a member of the GOP House leadership believes that the House Democrats are desperately against fighting Bin Laden and Al Qaeda. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Rep. Cantor seems to be arguing that Democrats are not only giving aid and comfort to the enemy, but that they are siding with the Islamic terrorists who want to attack and kill Americans. 

Ladies and Gentleman, your 2007 Republican Party!
