I'M PRETTY SURE NOW

House Majority Leader Rep. Eric Cantor is another Bagger favorite who has walked back his criticism of the OWS folks.  It's nice that his walk back made at least 2 news outlets.

Cantor shifts tone on Wall Street protesters, calls frustration 'justified'

House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) made an abrupt shift in rhetoric toward the Wall Street protesters on Tuesday, saying they were “justifiably frustrated,” just days after describing the people in the streets as “growing mobs.”

“People are upset, and they are justifiably frustrated,” Cantor told reporters at his weekly Capitol Hill briefing. “They are out of work. The economy is not moving. Their sense of security for the future is not clear at all. People are afraid, and I get it.”

Washington (CNN) – House Majority Leader Eric Cantor Tuesday attempted to walk back comments he made last week when he referred to those participating in the Occupy Wall Street demonstrations as "the growing mobs."

In his weekly session with reporters on Capitol Hill, Cantor said he understands why people are out on the streets protesting.

"People are upset and they're justifiably frustrated. They're out of work. The economy is not moving," Cantor said. "Their sense of security for the future is not clear at all. People are afraid and I get it."

The GOP freaks in the Senate defeated Pres. Obama's jobs bill, so I don't think they get even where their own voters are on taxes:

Americans in Poll Back Taxing the Wealthy

More than half of Republicans say wealthier Americans should pay more in taxes to bring down the federal budget deficit.

Fifty-three percent of self-identified Republicans back an increase in taxes on households making more than $250,000, a sentiment at odds with the party’s presidential candidates, who will meet tonight in a Bloomberg-Washington Post-sponsored debate focused on economic issues.

More than two-thirds of all Americans back higher taxes on the rich and even larger numbers think Medicare and Social Security benefits should be left alone, according to a Bloomberg-Washington Post national poll conducted Oct. 6-9.
