NewsBreaker @NewsBreaker 5m JUST IN: Per Sen sources, Boehner has agreed to take up the Senate's plan and allow it to pass with Dem votes - @robertcostaNRO
The man is a joke. Flat out joke. This was pointless.

No, Senate Republicans are the traitors... for accepting a plan with no real change in the first place. No way anyone was going to let the government not pay a bill.
Tea Party needs to focus on not only increasing numbers in the house, but taking back and increasing its caucus in the senate next election
Obama must be a little bit disappointed by this last minute deal. Its passage negates his plan for a complete takeover by simply declaring martial law. Eerything was conveniently falling into place for him to do that.
Now he’ll have to manufacture another crisis to accomplish this. Just a slight delay, but it did temporarily side track his plans. /sarc
The dow is up 200 points. Life is good. :). We live in a democracy and we’re outnumbered. We have to understand where things are going and plan to be sucessful. Adapt, adjust, overcome, and be sucessful. It is what it is. We still vote and campaign on principle. But we have to understand the reality.
The Republican party just committed political suicide

At last, they finally succeeded at something.
He has already said he would not seek another term as Speaker. Nothing to lose.
Nice rant. So what’s your plan?

The defeatists I was talking about are all the inside the beltway “conservative” intelligentsia who will claim that Cruz’s strategy was bad. It was not. I am supporting Cruz and defending his actions. It has had an enormous benefit to the conservative cause, not a bad one.
And that is how America and Americans are SOLD OUT.
Governing by crisis! What a way to run a country.
The shutdown and debt ceiling are good for one thing: showing low information voters that their god is fallible. The checks may indeed stop. They are waking them up to the fact that government cannot always take care of them so they should not be dependent upon it for forever.
Did the Dems preemptively surrender when they were in the minority? No, they fought for every inch of political turf. Only the loser GOP runs from every battle. Stop excusing their pathetic and invisible leadership.
“Not being blamed for default.
40% of the population not rioting come November 1’s EBT shutdown.”
You’re wrong on both counts.
Not raising the debt ceiling will not cause a default.
Nov 1 will not shut down the EBT system, -or even Dec 1st, unless the Dems choose to do so.
Lies and liberals.
