The liberal media keeps pushing this
the media keep saying the lie that the USA will default if the debt ceiling is not raised and the gov is kept shut down.
Hold the line Republicans. don't fall for the media lies

We agree, now Mr President, stop shutting down the government.

I ma pretty sure the idea now is to shut the House out of it and use some sort of order to override any House objections. Either that or find some way to get the House to cave one very singe demand from the Senate and WH. Once the House GOP stopped making it about Obamacare they essentially lost the war, at least that is what it seems like.

In other words, Reid is the hillbilly and McConnell is Ned Beatty

What is old Harry doing — dealing with himself???

There was some mention of a procedure the House Democrats could use to get around Boehner stopping any vote on something like the Reid proposal....
Called a Discharge petition...Democrats are busy signing up for it...will need a few Republicans to sign up also.
Apparently if they get enough signatures they can force a vote in the House.

And he added that the partial shutdown of the government for the past two weeks was "completely unnecessary," and he blamed the use of "brinksmanship as a strategy time and time again to try to extract extreme or partisan concessions." Declaring your opponents "jerks" on national TV, before the deal is done, is not the best negotiating tactic...

if the deal includes funding obozocare, forget it. The repubs are going to be alot worse off if they agree to fund obozocare than they will be if they don't. The MSM is against them but the people are not and they need to realize that fact and stand for the people.

the “deal” is total capitulation by the GOPe

They are in a panic to “reopen” the government before people figure out that they can live without “nonessential” services.

That doesn’t sound good for the House GOP at all - at this point getting a few Republican Senate votes should be fairly easy for the Democrats. They can sadly probably find a handful of GOP Senators who have caved by now.

I bet that bastard Peter King’s dirty prints will be all over this.

Not so sure they were ever on opposite sides of the issue.
