He is wrong.
His position is purely political amounting to letting the prez swing slowly in the breeze.
The effect of the shutdown has been to give O the rope he needed to make a noose for himself. Calling him to task for his demand to be given full authority for everything has resulted in an explosion of epic proportions. O is slaying himself every day. It was bad for him before. Now it is untenable. Sticking it to the vets and Srs is always bad business. O is too immature to understand the impact of his temper tantrum.
By sticking to Constitutional principle the House leadership has proven themselves statesmen, not mere politicians.
Kudos, Boehner, for as long as you are able to keep your spine erect.

The House is on the verge of caving

In a year what will be remember by non red districts in America?

That a few hundred vets couldn’t visit the WW2 memorial, or that GDP shrunk and the debt ceiling was very close to being breached?

Again, conservatives will vote for tea party folks regardless. But we need the Senate, badly, and had a damn good chance of getting it until 10 days ago.

When the House caves this will be an epic failure.

Totally agree with you. Now the uninformed can rest easy that the world won’t end...at least for a couple of months.
By then, the government computers will be back on line and the freebie seeking Obamanites will get religion.
