Correct that—now said not to be a shooting.

That was fast…remember the shitstorm on Fox when one of Cantor’s unmarked offices got struck by a stray bullet during deer season? I don’t even think it made it through the glass.

Virginia Rep. Eric Cantor said Thursday that his Richmond campaign office has been shot at and that he’s received “threatening e-mails” — but at the same time the House minority whip accused top Democrats of trying to exploit the threats they’ve been receiving for “political gain.”
Cantor said “a bullet was shot through the window” of his campaign office. The incident happened Monday, Fox News has learned, the latest in a rash of apparent threats and acts of intimidation against members of Congress. Most of the threats so far have been reported by Democrats, but Cantor — the No. 2 Republican in the House — is one of about 10 lawmakers who has asked for increased security protection, Fox News has learned.

Of course, CBS posted the real news a day or two later:

The bullet that hit House Republican Whip Eric Cantor’s office was the result of random gunfire, the Richmond, Virginia police said today.
