House Republicans, particularly everyone’s favorite “Young Gun,” Eric Cantor, have their summer calendars all marked up and ready to go, and guess what they have circled in (b)right red? Slamming President Obama and Democrats on the economy, taxes, regulations, the Affordable Care Act, and yes, even oil and gas drilling!

All of that should go a long way in calming the ridiculously toxic DC atmosphere. Good job, GOP!

Don’t forget to mark your own July calendars, now, because that’s when those adorable Republican sweethearts plan to vote to extend the Bush-era tax rates for all Americans… because we all know how those top 1%ers are suffering.

The Hill:

Cantor said the strategy will highlight the GOP’s “underlying principles,” which he said include “reducing spending and shrinking the size of the federal government while protecting and expanding liberty.”

“Above all,” Cantor wrote, “we must continue to focus on economic growth and small business— producing results that get Americans back to work.”

Thank GOODNESS the GOP is so into expanding liberty! That commie Marxist socialist Obama has been doing his best to take all our freedoms and keep them all for himself!

As for getting Americans back to work, which jobs bill was it again, that the GOP put forward? Oh that’s right, none, because they’ve been too busy trying to intrude on women’s privacy and make personal health care decisions for them.

I do hope Eric caught my recent post! It includes a video in which Mitt Romney slips, tells the truth, and completely invalidates GOP Economics 101, including that Bain “didn’t create” jobs.

Republicans also intend to consider legislation extending the Bush-era tax rates for all income levels. Without congressional action, those tax rates expire at the end of the year, setting up a showdown with Obama and Capitol Hill Democrats who want to allow the rates to increase to pre-Bush administration levels for the wealthiest Americans.

Of course, the Senate won’t go along with Eric’s Big Plans, but he’s hoping to make news and trouble at the same time. What a clever little scamp. I know! Let’s thank him by donating to Progressives.
