Our President has a Sense of Humor

Our President is so funny sometimes....I think this is the direct quote...lol

"I will keep reaching out... One of these days even Eric Cantor will say that Obama has a good idea."

Just wanted to put this out there... I thought it was so funny.

Nate's Answer to Classy Cantor

Well, it looks as if we have a response to Classy Eric Cantor's latest video.

Nate of That's Right Nate put together a YouTube and has it set up to answer Cantor's Aerosmith Video. Take a look at his answer. Then go tell him what you think of his work. From my understanding he is a Moderate Conservative, so this is quite a step for him to criticize one of his own so to speak.



I also want to give a hat tip to Zen Yenta for pointing me in the direction of this wonderful video.

Classy Eric Cantor Puts Out Another YouTube*****UPDATE*****

WELL IT LOOKS LIKE CLASSY CANTOR OVERSTATED HIMSELF AND GOT INTO TROUBLE WITH THE COPYRIGHT LAWYERS...HE ENDED UP WITH A CEASE AND DESIST ORDER...SO THE VIDEO ISN'T WORKING ANY LONGER...BUT I WILL LEAVE THIS UP JUST TO REMIND EVERYONE ABOUT IT.
FROM TPM:

Cantor's clip has been pulled from YouTube after a copyright infringement claim made by Stage Three Music, which owns the rights to "Back in the Saddle."

The GOP's use of the tune "was something we, as the publishers, didn't approve and would not have approved without going to the writers," Connie Ashton, director of copyright and licensing at Stage Three, told me. "Aerosmith did not approve of its use and also wanted to have it taken down," she added.

Ashton added that House Republicans never contacted Stage Three to put in a request for use of "Back in the Saddle." Maybe they assumed it was okay because Joe Perry endorsed McCain last year.

Here is Classy Cantor again... with a new YouTube.. This time touting his holding the team together to vote NO on the Recovery Bill. Of course, if you look at the text that floats across the screen you will see the lie of ACORN, and other things.

All set to the sounds of the rocking beat of Aerosmith. Just take a look at his latest work. He is really proud of it. Comes from his web site and he wants everyone to know how much like Newt Gingrich he would like to be. Which means he and other Republicans are trying to do exactly what they did to former Pres. Clinton by opposing everything he did. He has stated he is in touch with Newt quite often.
So watch and see what you think of Classy Eric's latest contribution to the internets:

Ad Wars NOT SAFE FOR WORK

There is a case of competing ads I guess you could say... First there is the ad blitz that AFSCME and Americans United For Change are putting on Radio in support of the Recovery Plan. You can see that here:



Then there is the so called Ad that was sent out in return by a spokesperson for Rep. Eric Cantor, (R, VA) supposedly as a joke, I am really laughing snark heavily applied... THIS IS NOT SAFE FOR WORK All I can say is stay classy Cantor, stay classy. I always have thought he was a sleaze.



Now he or his "representative" realizes what a HUGE mistake this was.

Under fire from big labor unions for pushing the labor goon video, GOP Rep Eric Cantor’s spokesperson, Brad Dayspring, sends over an apology and makes it clear that his boss had nothing to do with the whole thing:

“I would like to apologize for a joke that was in no way an official response from Congressman Cantor, but instead an inappropriate email. I apologize to AFSCME for my inappropriate email containing an old video. Let me be clear, we know people are hurting in these trying times and House Republicans completely agree that we must pass an economic recovery bill that preserves, protects and create jobs for Americans facing these economic challenges.”

Dayspring had originally said he intended the vid as a joke that had nothing to do with Cantor, and there were no indications that his boss had known anything about it. But joking about labor amid the economic crisis, at a time when the House GOP opposed the stim package en masse and President Obama is hammering Congress for action, was inevitably going to be depicted by the left as a sign that the GOP leadership is out of touch with the economic pain of ordinary people.

However is that enough??? Why was it even sent in the first place?? If this guy works for Cantor, isn't he aware of Cantor's stance on things, or shouldn't he be??
One side tale here that made this more untenable: It turns out Cantor has a history of condemning profanity.

Why would he do this knowing that about his boss?? If Cantor really has such a hard stance on profanity, why would this idiot send out such a profanity laced video??

This really makes no sense to me. I can't wait to see what happens to this guy. If Cantor really doesn't like it, will he fire him?? Will he publicly denounce it like he would expect a Democratic Congressperson to do??

Time will tell.. As I said.. Stay classy Eric... Stay Classy.
