"New entry into the Jumping To Conclusions Contest."

Yes, and notice how the author merged her opinion with the short quote to make it appear he actually said this.

thus indicating that House Republicans do plan to fund implementation of Obamacare past Sept. 30.

At his press conference on Tuesday, CNSNews.com asked Boehner, “In whatever legislation funds the government after Sept. 30, will House Republicans permit funding for the Affordable Care Act?”

Boehner said, “I expect that we’ll have an agreement with the Senate on a CR [continuing resolution]. As you all know, CR’s do contain some changes but usually not many changes. And considering that we’ve been fighting--the House has voted now 33 times to defund, to repeal and change Obamacare. Actually, about seven or eight of those votes have become laws, so there have been changes.” “But our goal would be to make sure the government is funded and any political talk of a government shutdown is put to rest,” said Boehner.

Let me translate that into English: "We'll cast symbolic votes against Obamacare from now until kingdom come, but a real vote against it? Never. That would actually involve risk to the most important thing in the world. Our political careers."

These slimy stunts by the Treason Media trying to divide the Right almost always work with some around here.

Thanks for your post.
