Nah, Boehner will find a way to hang it around the GOP’s neck instead. After all, he wants to liked by his democrat buddies.

Obama’s union handlers won’t accept anything less than higher taxes funneled directly to them.

Let the Democrats write a bill and let it be passed with all Republicans voting "present."

Let Ubama and the Democrats own it.

Does Plan B include dividend taxes, estate taxes, etc.

I'm assuming this is just the income tax rate stuff...just an emergency measure in case The Won can't get his stuff together to make a larger deal.

Obama and Boehner both need to realize that Obama is holds one position in government. He was reelected in 2012 but 435 House members were also reelected and they were elected as well.

Those 435 people were put in office to represent their constituents. Someone needs to remind the Dicktator.

He’s looking for more ways to compromise and capitulate rather than being hung with the “repubs fault” we drove over the cliff. Hey, maybe he could throw in some verbiage about banning high capacity magazines for people making less than 100k per year. (is that magazines over 100 pages?)

Share the lead.

This is why the bill Bohner is passing is important : extending rates for below $1M.

That allows him (B) to point out that now O is rejecting tax cut extensions for 99.9% of voters until he gets increases in the debt limit(without spending cuts) , meaning he is holding our taxes hostage, instead of Republicans falling into that trap.

That is how you play the game O usually wins at.

No, my family and myself should not suffer to make a political point. That is pure evil.

Screw it.
That's going to happen no matter what the hapless Boehner does or says.

I agree with telling Barry, "OK, Merry Christmas!" and then just turn out the lights.

The gutless old party SHOULD be screaming every day about how many days it’s been since America had a BUDGET.

Hey, Boehner, How is this all working for you? Keep banging your head against the wall until it stops hurting.

I wrote to my congresscritter — Griffith, 9th VA — to take the lead on conservative issues in the House via email.

I did not even get the pro forma auto response that is normal for most congressional offices.

Instead, I was automatically signed up for his E-newsletter.

There has to be some serious reform in the House. Congress can no longer be seen as a career, but rather a temporary job that lasts 4-6 years and you’re gone without a pension.

Just my opinion on the subject.

You're going to suffer anyway. Ubama is going to get his way.

You think Obamacare is going away? You think jobs are coming back?

President Cloward-Piven's only goal is to "overwhelm the system," and we have already passed the point of no return.

The sooner it happens, they sooner we can start on the reconstruction, after the guilty parties have been dealt with, of course.

Out of 20Trillion in added debt, one side wanted to cut $1.7T and the other wanted to cut $1.2T

We are dead

Boner will go down in history as the most useless speaker ever. Gingrich should go and show him how its done.
