Previously:

Limbaugh on NCNA: "We do not need a 'listening tour.' We need a 'teaching tour' ... 'Listening tour' ain't it."

Limbaugh on GOP's "listening tour": "This whole notion of listening, it's just -- it's a scam"

  And the GOP is still unable to get on the same page.

  Cantor reminds me of a neocon robot. I saw him on CBS Sunday Morning (one of those puff pieces to "balance" the agenda, no doubt) and he kept giving squirelly answers to Repub criticism questions.

    Yeah, he does come across as a bit of a fabrication.
    
    And how 'bout Rush and his call for a "teaching tour"? Man, that guy does not comprehend rejection. He probably thinks he can "teach" his ex wives why they left him.

    Cantor's plan to talk about 'principles' still leaves the Republicans in the same place they were a month or two ago; There have no plan. All they have are principles.
    
    Everyone that knows anything about what's been happening over the last six months will tell you that those principles are what got the United States into the mess it's in now. Need anyone cite the first rule of hole-digging?

  How dare the politicians listen to the people they represent. How reprehensible. We're going to tell you what you want to hear and how to think about it.

  You would think that after two decisive election defeats the GOP might want to listen to a large range of people and get an idea of where they went wrong,(hint, listening to LIMBAUGH, HANNITY LEVIN, COULTER ect.). But I have faith in them that they wont.

  Let's see, we have a group of white men going around the country meeting with white men. What are they listening for?

  I'm glad to see the reich-wing taking their cues from Rush, because, after all, his "operation chaos" was such a success.
