Eric Cantor Describes His Extremely Awkward Phone Call With Obama

businessinsider.com - House Majority Leader Eric Cantor detailed what sounded like a rather tense phone call he had with President Barack Obama about immigration reform Wednesday. The call came hours after Obama issued a terse statement attacking House Republicans for failing to move on the issue one year after a bipartisan "gang of eight" introduced a bill that eventually passed the Senate.

"Today, President Obama called me to discuss his desire for comprehensive immigration reform. The President called me hours after he issued a partisan statement which attacked me and my fellow House Republicans and which indicated no sincere desire to work together," Cantor said. "After five years, President Obama still has not learned how to effectively work with Congress to get things done. You do not attack the very people you hope to engage in a serious dialogue."
