Cantor says Americans are ‘better than’ everyone else.

Yesterday at the Heritage Foundation, House Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-VA) delivered a fiery, hyperbolic speech attacking the Obama administration’s national security policies. “America is at risk of slipping into the type of false sense of security which prevailed before that September morning,” he said, claiming that the President is “apolog on behalf of America” and being “naïve.” Last night on Fox News, Cantor continued his attacks. “We’ve done nothing wrong,” he said, adding that the U.S. doesn’t have to apologize for anything because Americans are “better than” the rest of the world:

CANTOR: What the President said in that speech was that he hoped to return to the days when we had a partnership with the Muslim world. That America 20, 30 years ago enjoyed some type of good relationship that now has gone awry. I don’t see it that way. I don’t see that somehow we need apologize for anything that America has done. Are we a perfect nation? By no means. Are we better than any else because of the exceptional nature of who we are? Yes.
