Your response (defense) of the OBoner and the current GOP House is EXACTLY the hand that OBozo and the Dems would have the media play.

BALLS...is doing the right thing and not worrying about one's political career in DC.

BALLS...is doing the right thing and not worrying about one's political career in DC.

BRAINS...is not handing the House back over to the Democrats by energizing their base and giving the MSM all the ammunition that they need to destroy us!

It seems you prefer Democrats controlling the government....

Perhaps Boehner et al thought in 2011 that “doing the right thing” in the 2011 budget debacle was to not allow obama pelosi and reid to kill the hostages (the US debt rating, social security recipients, MEDICARE patents and military members) and to attempt to craft a “box” deal that would hold the democrats in check if the spending cuts part of the deal did not materialize

I do believe Boner et al always underestimate the depths of the depravity of democrat partisanship ... as a lockstep bloc the democrats have been consistent in putting PARTY ahead of nation, true believers that the PARTY is the best choice for the nation no matter what the PARTY has to do to rule the nation
