good analogy, Boehner is like a hitter that is only good for sacrifice hits to (hopefully) advance the runner. Too bad all our Republicans on base are like Thurman Munson or Lou Pinella which run like molasses.
Munson was actually pretty fast. John Ellis, on the other hand.
Seems like not too long ago 100 billion dollars was a lot of money. Now it is hardly a meaningful percentage of the total amount of US Gov. spending. When will we ever get back on track?
