Obama makes factual statement, GOP goes nuts.

House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., sounded the typical theme. In a press conference, Cantor said:

My question would be to the president, are you kidding? Did he see the job numbers that came out last week? The private sector is not doing fine. And, frankly, I’d ask the president to stop engaging in the blame game. It’s not because of the headwinds of Europe. It’s not, despite his attempt and his party’s attempts here in Congress, it is not because of House Republicans. It’s because of the failed stimulus policies and other items in his agenda that small businesses in this country just aren’t growing.

Eric Cantor, YUSOMAD?
