Boehner: 'Too many people' in the room (Then leave and take all the GOP with you)

There are some people who have said from the beginning that this is all theater. A made up play to manipulate the markets and crush the dollar. I am beginning to believe they are correct. Why the House just doesn't pass a budget and move the fight to the Senate and on to 0 is beyond me. A straight forward passed budget from the Reps three months ago would of put this in a whole other light. Something is very wrong.
——————————————————————————————There is NO budget for the House to vote on. Only THE PRESIDENT CAN PROPOSE A BUDGET, which has not been done for two years. This country's obligations have been paid through a series of “continuing resolutions”, NOT A BUDGET. I Agree, why negotiate at all?

There will be no default as long as we “make the minimum” payment on our credit card....

“Speaking of ogres”

An apt description, LOL!

Brilliant messaging, Mr. Speaker.

The GOP wants less sunshine and more smoke-filled, closed dooriness to its management of the country’s business!

Actually the Constitution says spending bills originate in the House. They just gave in to 0’s threat to veto.

This whole thing is like offering a junkie some more crack if he would just stop smoking crack.
