House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) and a friend of GING-PAC

House Majority Leader Eric Cantor has been called one of the “Young Guns Of The House GOP” for his exceptional leadership abilities in defending the conservative economic and national defense agenda in Congress. He’s also a social conservative who is a defender of the right to life of unborn babies and is a committed defender of Israel.

Rep. Cantor earned his law degree from The College of William and Mary and also has a Master’s Degree from Columbia University in New York. He represents the 7^th Congressional District in Virginia.

The National Right To Life Committee has given Cantor a 100% positive rating. The abortion lobby NARAL Pro-Choice America rated him at 0%.

In March, 2012, Cantor gave a keynote speech at the American Israel Public Affairs Committee Policy Conference.

During that speech, Cantor told the audience: “You have gathered here because you have faith, because you have commitment, and because you have love for America and her great friend, Israel.America and Israel are two lights among all nations. They are envied by many, but known for their dedication to human freedom, opportunity and growth.”

In discussing Iran and Islamic terrorism, Cantor observed:  

“For years, Iran has been scoffing at the United States and Israel, signaling that it believes it has nothing to lose. America and Israel must now demonstrate that we do have the intelligence, capability and will – both military and moral – to persuade Iran that we will meet its folly with force.

“I, for one, do not apologize when I say that Israel and America, while not perfect, have the two most morally responsible militaries in the world. Might exercised with righteousness is might that makes right. The soldiers of Israel and America are trained to be moral and responsible, and are held to the highest ethical standards. Our militaries operate at great expense and with great risk to conduct operations that place a premium on avoiding collateral damage. By contrast, many of our adversaries intentionally target innocent women and children. 

“When it comes to Iran, Al Qaeda, the Taliban or any of our other enemies, it is not true that one man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter.

“It is not liberty or freedom that our enemies are fighting for. Our enemies have made it plain that they oppose the freedoms that Israel and America uphold.”

Rep. Cantor deserves our support and should be re-elected in 2012.
