Boehner actually is avoiding Obama’s bait & switch offer.

Boehner’s $2 T cut plan is with no tax increases or deduction removals which most of us do not want in any debt ceiling deal.

agree 1000%- there’s to much knee-jerk reaction in many of these threads rather than thinking it through...a shorter deal with no tax hikes is better for the GOP, and the country at this point, versus a longer deal which we know zero will not adhere to...

Finally, a sane comment. Thank you.

Which some here have somehow interpreted as "folding." My big fear is that he was going to accept the deal with its massive tax increases. Instead Boehner has REJECTED them.
