Who's the idiot? Republicans just don't want to be seen honoring MKL. It's undeniable! *"House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) is currently on a fundraising tour, and though his public schedule* included no events yesterday, he declined the opportunity to appear. And how about House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.), whose office yesterday complained about only getting two weeks' notice from event organizers? He was otherwise engaged in the afternoon ( via). Cantor, hosted by Rep. Kevin Cramer, R-N.D., met with energy industry and community leaders at a crew camp in Williston, toured a drilling site and other oilfield locations in the Bakken and met with North Dakota Petroleum Council members in Watford City. [...] "I hope to be able to tell the president that there's a lot for him to learn here as far as energy production here in America," Cantor said. "North Dakota seems to have gotten it right." Oh, I see. Cantor couldn't make it to the event on civil rights because he was visiting with oil industry representatives**."
