Boehner is a Democrat, and this is hot air.
Boehner SUPPORTS ObamaCARE and Obama and open borders

In Boehner’s parlance, a “whale of a fight” = lots of tears and hand-wringing, followed by a “deal” that benefits no one but Obama.
We’re wise to your posturing, Boehner, so STFU.

These supposed debt-limit fights couldn’t be more phony. Congress should be cancelling unnecessary programs, not approving new boondoggles, and not appropriating funds at nearly the level they do.
Battling about the debt numbers, which are rigged anyway, is just a setup to supposedly cow the GOP into legislating less conservatively.
Unfunding Obamacare and acting only to assure current immigration laws are being enforced should be the two big items on Congress’s agenda.

Bohner appears to be saying this to get a budget passed out of house that Senate will accept (I assume he will use Dem votes to pass it) to avoid a shutdown.
The problem with his claim here is that Obama already has claimed that he will not negotiate at all over the Debt limit. And so the debt limit was expanded early this year by House without a fuss. So what has changed?
And exactly what cuts is Bohner talking about anyway.

...what Im trying to do here is to leverage the political process to produce more change than what it would produce if left to its own devices.Puke...what a bunch of Beltway Blather.
More like a minnow talking like that.
To: ClaytonP
This is how the big government trained elites have rammed through all of their agenda folks for decades, by blackmail and a gun to the head by putting the entire budget in one pot and threatening a shutdown if Congress holds the purse on anything.
Ask yourself...Why did the Republicans not change this procedure by now?
The Purse is what gives the people's house power and keeps balance in the Republic. Answer..the GOP-e supports a dictatorship that makes 'WE THE PEOPLE' irrelevant.

RE :
Let me reiterate what our position is, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said. And it is unequivocal: We will not negotiate with Republicans in Congress over Congress responsibility to pay the bills that Congress has racked up. Period. Of course if they dont pass a new budget or CR (by Oct 1) then that argument is moot. (Debt limit T0 ~ mid Oct)
Obama is demanding that they spend MORE $$$$ by passing a CR with O-care AND at the same time that they pay the bills for it claiming its past authorized spending, which only the emergency critical services exempt from a shutdown would be in a shutdown.
Example :Obama-care . The Dem congress 2010 passed that.
Its exempt from shutdown. So assuming a delayed CR then Obama claims that this congress has to pay the bills for Obama-care because it authorized that spending.
