White House to Cantor: Hypocrisy Unbound

Comments

10/07/2011

Tula Connell

Virginia Republican Rep. Eric Cantor’s depiction of Occupy Wall Street protests as “growing mobs” drew an appropriate response from White House spokesman Jay Carney today. Saying he sensed “a little hypocrisy unbound here,” Carney went on to say that

what we’re seeing on the streets of New York is a an expression of democracy. I think I remember how Mr. Cantor described protests of the tea party–I can’t understand how one man’s mob is another man’s democracy.

That is, when members of the so-called tea party shouted down anyone who opposed them in congressional townhall meetings, Cantor said nary a word about a mob gone awry. In fact, he supported them.
