Overheard Outside Eric Cantor's Office:

Eric Cantor

“After all of this screaming and yelling, yes, the House GOP is going to authorize increasing the debt ceiling, because, well, we don’t really have a choice. The president has been right all along. We can’t hold up the debt ceiling because we want to get a pound of flesh. Instead of beating that dead horse, we instead are going to totally fuck up the immigration bill, and we are going to force President Barack Obama to accept the next round of sequester cuts, no matter who screams and cries, despite ALL OF THE EVIDENCE SHOWING THAT THE SEQUESTER IS TOTALLY FUCKING THE ECONOMY UP AND ONLY HURTING LOWER INCOME AMERICANS BY CUTTING DRASTICALLY OR TOTALLY ELIMINATING PARTS OF OUR SOCIAL SAFETY NET. We’re Republicans. We don’t give a fuck about low-income Americans, and you can just take your social safety net and go catch baby dolphins to feed to the poor. I’d say, ‘How do you like them apples,’ but no family receiving any type of public assistance will be able to afford apples this year, so I won't say it because that would be mean. Muahahahahahahahahahaha.”
