Did Eric Cantor have anything to do with another group being throw out of a Holiday Inn??

Multiple sources

Eric Cantor's message to the people, "Try to find me, losers!"

Cantor held an Advisory Council gathering, closed to the media but open to constituents who registered ahead of time, at the Holiday Inn Koger Center in Richmond. A coalition of progressive Virginia organizing groups — Progress Virginia, OurDC, and Virginia Organizing — had booked rooms and a separate ballroom in the hotel to hold a “jobs rally” countering Cantor’s event. According to organizers, the groups planned to invite Cantor to attend their rally after his own event, in the hope that he would listen to their concerns regarding job creation and unemployment.

But just hours before the events were set to begin, the Holiday Inn canceled the groups’ ballroom and room reservations and ordered the groups to remain off of hotel property during Cantor’s meeting. According to organizers, hotel management falsely accused them of smoking in their rooms and used that as justification to cancel their reservations. A representative of Holiday Inn who only agreed speak on the condition of anonymity, however, said the hotel was seeking to avoid confrontation between the progressive groups and those attending the Cantor event. He would not comment on whether the hotel had any communications with Cantor or his staff regarding the progressive groups.

Another Tea –bagger brought Congress-asshole, thinks he doesn’t have to listen to the his constituency at all. Unless they are those who give large amount of cash, and 100% agree with every damn stupid thing that comes out of his mouth.

After their reservations were canceled, the progressive groups assembled across the street and began marching to the hotel, where they were met by Virginia state police officers and hotel management demanding that they remain off Holiday Inn property. The protesters remained assembled between the Holiday Inn and the street, where they held signs protesting Cantor’s record on job creation and his legislative priorities and chanted that they wanted Cantor to focus on jobs. Multiple protesters told stories of their unemployment over a megaphone as police and hotel management looked on.

Ray Allen, a political adviser to Cantor, insinuated that these folks were organized “out of Washington”, as if Cantor has no constituents out of work in Virginia.

It doesn’t matter where they Organized the event, those that showed up for the event were from his US District.

Eric Cantor just don’t care about the folks that he was elected to Represent in Washington. Hell, he can’t even pretend to care at all, unless you are bagger.

Cantor is busy finding another phony “issue” to sell on Fox News to the cult. The cult are always invited to Cantor’s meetings because cult members don’t ask questions and they make excellent foot soldiers.

What a great few years, We have one Congresswoman, who held open meeting with her constituents, whom sadly got shot, but thought it was her job to listen to all those whom she represented in Congress. While others whom hold these Town Halls now, charge, block people from recording them, and not no admit lists, simply because they don’t want to face those whom are fed up with them putting big oil,and big business in front of what the people need..
