RE :’“President Obama and Senate Democrats haven’t done much of anything,” Boehner said during a Capitol Hill press conference today. “Their Plan B is to slow walk us over the fiscal cliff.”
“For weeks the White House has said that if I moved on rates, that they would make substantial concessions on spending cuts and entitlement reform,” Boehner said.
“I did my part,” he said. “They’ve done nothing.”

This is a good start but Boner needs some drama school. Quick tips:

1) Show distress, and emotion
2) plead with O to stop playing with peoples lives on taxes
3) Talk about how it will hurt ‘the children’
4) Explain how Democrats wont take YES for an answer
5) Splane how they are holding our taxes hostage for a even better deal then they demanded on raising taxes (punishing job creators).
6) Send House members to drama school crash course for their TV appearances play up 1 to 5 above

#7 is the most important:
Tell certain clueless Republicans to STOP CALLING FOR HOUSE REPUBLICANS TO DRIVE US OFF THE CLIFF!

It would be a better idea to define what "the cliff" actually is. The only cliff here is the same cliff we saw 16 months ago. The cliff has nothing to do with tax rates or spending cuts. The only "cliff" here is in regard to continuing to print up more money to fund government. If Boehner would simply announce that it is time to cut up the government credit card, he would have the support of the American people. Instead, he allows Obama to define it as something that it is not.

This whole charade is cover for the biggest tax increase of all - the devaluation of the currency. Give Obama anything else, but DO NOT give him the ability to expand our money supply by another $5 trillion.

Better hold one cause that’s exactly where we’re going.

I called and wrote my congressman today to tell him not to vote for raising taxes.

The better course is to let Obama own it.
