He should have got it over with and moved on soon after the election. Dragging it out just made the GOP the crisis story for 6 weeks :
“Will Republicans blow up the economy to spite Obama?”

Ending with a big inter-party fight

Oh--please. Boehner is a first-class phony. All of Official Washington has its greedy fingers in the bloated budget pie. Nothing gets done b/c all of the insiders on Capitol Hill are busy salivating over pages and pages of their ill-gotten holdings.

Hannity ran a special WRT Offical Washington living large---Congressmen and their extended families rolling in dough as lobbyists, sipping the finest wines, driving luxury cars, and so on.

One FReeper posted----on a Carribean cruise, a luxury beachfront home was pointed out----supposedly "owned" by Biden's brother----but that Air Force Two is frequently seen flying in. (Remember that Ohaha put Biden in charge of the hundreds of billions in stim.)

====================================================

REFERENCE--THROW THEM ALL OUT (how official Washington gets rich on insider deals). Book by Peter Schweitzer.

REVIEW One of the biggest scandals in American politics is waiting to explode: the full story of the inside game in Washington shows how the permanent political class enriches itself at the expense of the rest of us.

<><>Insider trading is illegal on Wall Street, yet it is routine among members of Congress.

<><> Normal individuals cannot get in on IPOs at the asking price, but politicians do so routinely.

<><> The Obama administration has been able to funnel hundreds of millions of dollars to its supporters, ensuring yet more campaign donations.

<><> An entire class of investors now makes all of its profits based on influence and access in Washington.

Peter Schweizer has doggedly researched through mountains of financial records, tracking complicated deals and stock trades back to the timing of briefings, votes on bills, and every other point of leverage for politicians in Washington. The result is a manifesto for revolution: the Permanent Political Class must go.
