    WASHINGTON — The family of Gabe Zimmerman, the congressional aide to Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.) who was killed in the Tucson shootings in January, sent a letter to Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) on Thursday urging him to allow a House vote on a stalled resolution that would name a room in the Capitol Visitor Center after Gabe.

    THE QUESTIONS CANTOR WANTED TO AVOID

    Earlier today, House GOP Majority Leader Eric Cantor abruptly canceled an economic speech he was scheduled to give at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania this afternoon after the University refused to limit the attendance of the speech to students and faculty and instead opened the event to accommodate the larger community’s interest:

    House Majority Leader Eric Cantor canceled a speech on income inequality at the University of Pennsylvania Friday morning, after his office was told that the school opened the speech to the public and it was targeted by protesters – including Occupy Philadelphia. [Politico, 10/21]

    Here are a few questions Mr. Cantor was probably afraid of being confronted with today:

    1. Why has the GOP been in charge of the House for 290 days and still no jobs bills?

    2. Why would the GOP craft bills that would potentially destroy 2 million jobs when Americans here at home need work?

    3. Why has the GOP voted 17 times against Democratic jobs legislation, including China currency legislation that would help create 1 million American jobs?

    4. Why is the GOP hell bent on ending Medicare to protect tax breaks for Big Oil, millionaires and corporations shipping jobs overseas?

    5. Why has the GOP spent all of their time in Washington obstructing the President and refusing to work with Democrats to restore economic stability for middle class families and small businesses?

    6. Do you think it’s fair that millionaires pay less taxes than bus drivers, teachers, first responders and other middle income families?

    7. How does restricting women’s access to essential health services make our economy stronger and create jobs?

  3. House proceeds on abortion-funding measure

    The 248-to-173 vote — which saw 11 Democrats join all House Republicans present in voting “yes” with the remaining 173 Democrats voting “no” — came hours before South Korean President Lee Myung-bak was to address a joint meeting of Congress; a final vote on the measure is expected later Thursday evening.

    The House proceeds to vote on an abortion bill but no jobs bill? GTFOOH! The 11 Democrats who voted for this attack on women’s health need to be kicked to the moon.

  4. The republican party has no shame, no morals, no conscience, no soul. Their policies oppress, distress, depress, and hurt people. OCCUPY THE POLLS. Register and vote these mofos out of office.

    i do not envy Obama his position. With the current House, he is having to decide which of his promises to sacrifice so that he can get other promises upheld. I would also add to your “wall of shame” the entire movement of current conservatives, to simply endure Obama’s defeat in 2012, NOT to look out for their constituents. I appreciate your “what has Obama done” page… I found it very useful.
