In all fairness, the Speaker did not cry today, made a forceful speech railing the Senate and the President, and, as Drudge headlined, put the ball in the Senate’s court.
Now is the time to get behind DeMint and other such Senators and support their efforts to make sure this bill STAYS in the Senate as long as possible. If kept in the Senate past August 2nd, then one can watch as the cracks form in the supposedly impenetrable Demoncratic Party front line. In other words, CALL THEIR BLUFFS OVER AND OVER.
Well...it COULD happen.
He kinda whined, though.
Boehner’s forceful speech was all an act. He’s been in on negotiations behind the scenes on Reid’s bill. This has all been scripted.
The House Freshmen are being used. They were supposed to be our last line of defense, but they sold out.
That’s right Tea Party, they SOLD OUT.
Sounds like a plan. :)
