Since we know the Liberals will not even discuss any Boehner plan, why not use the opportunity to present a consolidated position?

Should have done this right from the start.

Harry Reid will have to take up the bill and the Senate will have to pass it, but not unchanged. The House will probably pass the re-revised Boehner plan today. Then the Senate takes it up, strips out the BBA provision and passes the revised version. The House accepts the change and passes the final bill overwhelmingly with 90% of all Republicans and 60% of Dems voting for it. Everyone saves face and the game goes on, until we lose our AAA rating, our borrowing costs soar and the game shuts down for good.
