House Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-Va.) sought on Sunday to quickly and clearly distance the Republican Party from a GOP candidate whose past participation in Nazi re-enactments surfaced this weekend. In an appearance on "Fox News Sunday," Cantor (the lone Jewish Republican in the House) said he "would absolutely repudiate" Rich Iott, the Republican nominee for Ohio's 9th District who apparently had an affinity for donning a German Waffen SS uniform. "What we have got now is a new crop of young leaders energized to go to Washington for the right reasons," said Cantor. "Now Debbie [Wasserman Schultz, Cantor's co-panelist] went and launched into her attacks as to some of the reports about candidates that are running, particular the one in Ohio having to do with Nazi re-enactment. She knows that I would absolutely repudiate that and do not support an individual who would do something like that." At this point Wasserman Schultz urged Cantor to actually articulate his repudiation. "I'm doing it right here," he replied. "I'm doing it right here Debbie. You know good well that I don't support anything like that." Iott's past involvement in Nazi re-enactments, first reported by The Atlantic, may well constitute the largest discomfiture for the Republican Party in a cycle in which a number of candidates have done or said discomforting things. The Ohio Republican has defended himself by insisting his participation in the events was done for "purely historical interest in World War II." But the defense has done little to assuage GOP leadership. Once listed on the Republican Party's site of "Contenders" (a ranking/prioritization of candidates that was just below the "Young Guns"), Iott's name was removed altogether once the photos of him surfaced. The Democrat in the race, incumbent Marcy Kaptur, already seemed likely to hold the seat. Iott's quick sink seems likely to seal the deal.

All that was handled by Iott was a sense of re-enactment about the second world war. In no way was there a sense of NAZISM... which, apparently Cantor portrays.
I'm not voting for the guy. Those that feel Iran/Amanijahd are right , can't possibly see this as an issue.

Of course you aren't. You live in a run-down trailer in Southern California with beer cans scattered all around in the desert area, far removed from Iott in Ohio. You have no fucking decency, similar to your constant scaggy blondbitch that you hail as a leader on elPee.
Already done rounding up choir boys for your priest I see.

Are you voting for Palin in the next presidential campaign?
Nope. She will not define what her path is. But you continue to aide the vatican nation.
-----------------------------------------------------------
You can't properly define my politics outside the teat sucking your pursed lips are drawing milk from. Go tell your mommy and trailer management staff that you can't keep up. I am confident they already know what to do with you from your past history.
You support Ron Paul. He is open borders just like your vatican. You're a bumper sticker roman catholic. Thomas Jefferson hates you.

Earth to White Zionist Sabra in need of ESL instruction. Thomas Jefferson is dead.
Your conduit to God: -----------------------------------------------------------
Why do you, so fervently, hate free speech?
You working for Iott's campaign, or just masterbating dreaming of him as a lover, ming? (laughing)
Obama's first all-by-his-lonesome budget, btw, calls for a $1.17 trillion deficit.
Da bitch dun bin slapped!

I think you spelled it wrong. It should be spelled Rich Idiot.
She loves the goose step in the morning...and the smell of lit ovens.

Reality check - Government spending is down, the deficit is down, government employment is down, and private hiring is up.
