Man, the only issues that really matter to liberals are race, sex, and religious affiliation. They disgust me as a breed. Cantor lost primarily because of his immigration stance, but mostly because he had turned into a mushy wuss.
True Flaglady......if I would get 435 conservatives in Congress, not one of them needs to be a Catholic even though that is my religion. I want good conservatives not Catholic politicians....we have enough of those in reality...lol.
Jewish Americans are rabidly ‘open borders’ immigration radicals, too stupid to look at how that policy would work in Israel.
It would do the same here, but they are too dumb to see it.
I was completely unaware of long suffering Jewish GOP members.
I must be stupid.
He was a Democrat masquerading as a Republican, like most Republicans today
I agree. When I read this piece of drivel I felt so blessed I was Republican... As hard as it is to believe for the folks at Politico there are people who can see past race, sex, and religion. After reading this liberal divisive filth I feel sickened.
Give the GOPE time and they will make this anti-Semitic. I didn’t know Cantor was Jewish until this article, nor did I care. He was a big government Republican and he got his butt kicked, no bigotry here except on the left.
I wonder what Cantor has to say about this?
“...the only issues that really matter to liberals are race, sex, and religious affiliation....”
No so much that it “matters” as much as it is something to drive a wedge and USE.
Look up communist tactics using minorities - this is what they do, and have done.
They use it because they play on the fundamental decency of the American people (most of us, anyway) - that part of us that believes EVERYBODY deserves a “fair shot” at being part of the American Dream.
They twisted it to mean “fair SHARE” of the fruits of YOUR labor.
Cantor lost his primary because he supported ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION and giving these invaders amnesty.
Giving them amnesty means rewarding them for breaking the law, thereby slapping in the face EVERY American who lives his life trying to abide by the laws - even when some of the laws are ridiculous.
People DO NOT want it. And the primaries are showing it.
The fact that the Dems have to pull out the race/gender/religious playbook is just SOP for them when they’re losing.
They are obsessed with all you said. Divide and conquer...
