Boehner’s plan...
A Republican source sends over John Boehner’s “two-step approach to hold President Obama accountable.”
http://www.politico.com/static/PPM156_boehner_conference_072511.html
Calls it "responsible plan" and "sets in motion a process for real cuts."
Not sure who else spoke--no audible intros. Third speaker said Obama "picks politics over people." Fourth speaker said the same. Fifth speaker mentioned the Harry Reid & Senate haven't passed a budget in over 800 days, attacked lack of plans from Obama & Dems, reiterated Obama focused on his reelection. (at this point Hannity lost audio)
Audio returned later. Female speaker, a House member, mentioned poll showed 2/3rds support for "Cut, Cap, Balance", said Senate ignored that and didn't even debate the bill. Says can't, "borrow and spend out of control."
Boehner took questions.
Reid just offered plan, said everything GOP wants, would plan be supported by House. Boehner said Reid's plan "full of gimmicks" and does nothing to address entitlements.
Another asked, "The Cut, Cap, & Balance group" (who are they?) has come out against Boehner's plan, can he get even a majority of House Republicans to go along? (Laughter). Someone else answer, maybe Cantor(?), that CCB was bipartisan so hopes Democrats will join with House GOP to pass this bill to get on the right path.
Balanced Budget Amendment (BBA) question asked. Boehner said this new bill requires a vote to be taken by House & Senate on "A Balanced Budget Amendment" after Oct 1 and before the 2nd package from the "joint selection committee" is voted on. Says it allows time for proponents to unify behind one version of a BBA and to build support across the country. Says it's time for America to help them make ultimate accountability (via a BBA) a reality.
End of presser.
Blah, blah, blah, millionaires and billionaires, blah, blah, blah, revenue increases. Blah, blah, blah, Inherited, Blah, blah, blah red herring, blah, blah , blah, straw man arguement.
That pretty much summs it up!
Cavuto just finsihing up....and dingy and turbin are getting ready to spake...they have two charts...one says something about why Republicans should accept a longer term debt deal...the other one lists reasons why the Republicans should say yes.
We’re going to be here awhile.
I’d like to put up two posters for the Replicans in response.
The first would say..” why Republicans should say NO”,
the second should say “why Republicans should say HELL NO”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He will be scapegoat hunting with his bus.
Today he spoke to the La Raza nation about our problems. The way I view it, that is simply an enemy of this nation speaking to a group of enemies of this nation.
Plain and simple.

The Pittsburgh Pirates are playing on ESPN. I don’t like the Pirates but it’s better than being lied to and having my intelligence insulted.
Yes, I know, the Pirates have been insulting baseball fans’ intelligence for 17 years, but hey, I’m a Cub fan. I’m an expert on knowing when my intelligence is being insulted, even though I have precious little of it.
