You know how all the Republicans over on Fox News are whacking squalling that we need a damn investigation of everything that has happened in the past 4 years?

Well, how about a little Eric Cantor investigation?

I do not want to speculate what Cantor was doing playing footsie with an FBI agent who likes to send shirtless pictures of himself around, but whatever Cantor was doing, it wasn’t pretty.

Cantor’s inappropriate meddling into an FBI investigation for opportunistic political purposes — likely aimed at influencing an election — simply failed.  Cantor took the risk of assisting a rogue FBI agent to make an end run around his superiors, without even informing his fellow Republicans on the Hill.  He thought he would end up a GOP hero, but he really just looks as seedy as the whole lamentable saga.

If this mess gets any more tawdry and goofy, Disney is going to have to team with Larry Flint to make the movie.

Thanks to everybody for the heads up.
