Indignant Eric Cantor: 'House blocked Spotify? This is 2013 ... Let the music flow!'

Aw, it’s a bipartisan lovefest! Nancy Pelosi’s director of new media agrees with House Majority Leader Eric Cantor: Free the Spotify!

I agree with Mr. Cantor. MT @GOPLeader House blocked Spotify? This is 2013. It is a legal service that should be allowed.

Twitter reaction is mixed to the congressman’s plea to “Let the music flow!”

.@fshakir @GOPLeader Why do you two think the taxpayers should be paying for this bandwidth exactly??

Ha! Priceless: BuzzFeed’s Ben Smith has developed a strange, new respect for federal fiscal discipline.

Some suggested that there are more pressing issues at hand than whether the House comes between Cantor and his Spotify.

@GOPLeader Or, you could stop wasting tax dollars and focus on defending the Constitution! Better go tell cons to "get their asses in line"

Perhaps we should negotiate?

Now back to work, Cantor.

Next week, the House will consider the #RequireAPlan Act to require President Obama to put forward his plan to balance the budget. #tcot
