To me what matters is that first year cuts are measly $6 Billion. You're right - out years may as well be 275 gazillian... they don't happen.

But it doesn't make sense that Boehner would say he had the votes - he has not ever said that before I don't think.

Then for Cantor and West to come out, before they see the plan... it's very strange.

I continue to hope that there is a plan that is not yet evident.

I suppose if something bad does pass that it can be pinned on dems and we still have upper hand in nov 12.

Whats strange is that u (Bonehead and Cantor)would come out and strong arm conservatives before the CBO scores came in. Plus he wanted the bill voted on tomorrow. Where is the time for the debate?
Why is he acting like Nancy Pelosi and rushing this bill through? They have had months to prepare these bills. I agree. Strange, very strange.
