Boehner looking to move debt ceiling bill soon
Politico ^ | 10/14/15 | JAKE SHERMAN and ANNA PALMER

House Speaker John Boehner is looking to move a bill to lift the debt ceiling before he leaves Congress, a tactic aimed at helping his successor, according to multiple sources with knowledge of internal party planning.

Timing has not been decided, but the Treasury Department says the nation's borrowing limit needs to be raised by Nov. 5, and Boehner (R-Ohio) would like to resolve the issue before a new speaker is sworn in. Boehner expects to step down Oct. 30. His office declined to comment for this story....

Every morning I wake up and ask God to show me a sign that you and I really are as accurate as history shows we are or if it’s just a dream. And the next morning, like clockwork, there on the pages of FR is yet another example of our stunning predictive abilities.

You think our British cousins may have some torches left over from 1812 we could use?

So where are we at? We were at like 38/38 last week. Gotta be at least 41/41 by now.

Do you know any good agents? All my contacts are long past. We could probably get some Clinton cash and just feed her the crap she fed us over the years.

No agents would believe our track record, even though FR alone proves it.

No one ever believes a Prophet/s in their own lifetimes.

No matter. 40+ foot naked and golden statues fanned with palm fronds by elfin virgins amidst a chorus of celestial trumpets will bear witness to the awesome that is su.

Humbly speaking of course. I’d say how divine our grasp of the obvious is but I don’t think FR could take it. Someone might mistakenly accuse of arrogance. ;)

And nothing less that a triple. Most cleared the fence and took out a lib Freeper in the parking lot. In fact we stole home a couple times to boot.

Boner ain’t goin’ nowhere. At least not soon enough. This is all one big ploy to calm things down before he gives Obama everything he needs for the next 16 months.

We honestly try to be humble every day. Problem is, the GOPe commits a daily transgression, and I must admit.....I can’t help myself. Neither can Norm.

It all goes back to what we say. Predicting this stuff is about the easiest thing imaginable. All one has to do is as we often say, “pay attention” and not lie to ones self about what reality shows them.

Anyone could have a perfect/near perfect hit rate because the GOP flat out tells us what transgression they will be fumbling through next. Every time. No exceptions.

They told us they intend to work with Barry ergo they will work with Barry. Look at Barry’s position and do the math on how the GOP can accommodate that in a way that most screws America. There’s your answer. And they do it every time.

Steve knows this and thats why his predictions are dead on every day. So do I. The GOP thinks and acts like a spoiled child or a bratty teen girl. It’s harder to catch goldfish in a bowl than predict their actions on a given subject. It all comes down to one simple and well known formula. “The GOP will invariably find a way to get to the worst possible choice, then take it”.

It’s that simple.
