Eric Cantor: "I Know You Are But What Am I?"

Minority Whip Eric Cantor is accusing Democrats of "dangerously fanning the flames" of violence by noticing all the death threats and the publicly flaunted firearms and the resurgent militias and the violent rhetoric suffusing right-wing gatherings and hate-radio and Fox News and Congressional floor speeches and party fundraising letters. I don't doubt that the long years spent endlessly accusing Democrats of being racists for noticing and decrying right-wing racism and the effects of racism have prepared Republicans well to indulge in such self-consuming hypocritical utterances without imploding.
