In what has to be causing angst and flying spittle amongst the knuckle dragging Neanderthals that make up the base of the Republican Party of Virginia, Diana Fine Cantor, wife of slimy and, in my opinion, ethically and morally challenged, GOP House Majority Whip Eric Cantor, has come out as pro-choice and pro-gay. No doubt Cantor will be faced with doing damage control with the gay hating Christianists at The Family Foundation and its network of objective reality denying - and equality denying - churches across the Commonwealth of Virginia. Diana Cantor's comments came out during a Sixty Minutes segment on her husband who continues to defend DOMA and otherwise carry water for Christianists in the Republican Party who not only hate gays, but also Jews like Cantor. HAPBlog described the interview as follows:60 Minutes sat down with Majority leader Cantor tonight to mostly grill him for being an obstructionist to president Obama. But during the interview, Leslie Stahl meets the family at the congressman's home, they talk to his wife who is a political polar opposite to Eric Cantor. Pro choice and pro gay marriage. They also interview Cantor's son Michael who says dad likes to listen to Jay-Z and Lil' Wayne, no kidding. Here's video from tonight's interview. Very interesting:
Blogger friend Jeremy Hooper at Good As You had these further thoughts:
Continuing a trend we've seen from Laura Bush, Cindy McCain, and other prominent political spouses, Diana Fine Cantor, wife of House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, has revealed on last night's "60 Minutes" that she breaks from her conservative husband on the issue of same-sex marriage
It's too bad that the women in these marriages are not the ones holding public office. I suspect the nation and the world might be a better place.
