On edit: Just checked the quote source -- from a 1905 operetta called The Red Mill - makes it even more bizarre. Did he perform that in school I wonder?

Canturd's schooling (Collegiate School, GW, William & Mary, Columbia U) would be out of the price range of anyone making less than $250,000 per year, in terms of real dollars.

Seriously, he's an embarrassment. Gah.

On edit: gotta take back the "similar background." Ethnic, yes. Money and snobbery? No.

Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, which is charged with electing more Democrats to the House, dug up the old nickname used for for Mr. Cantor during his time as a state senator in Virginia.
