No rational person can possibly believe that.
Maybe you should look back on the negotiations on the 2011 budget. Conservatives were assured a $100 billion cut. Boehner was going to stand tall. As negotiations went on, Boehner negotiated down to a $60 billion cut. He was going to hang tough here. With more negotiations Boehner got to a $30 billion cut. Boehner assured us this was the last compromise. When all was said and done, the Crybaby had given away the farm and there was less than $1 billion in cuts. Boehner told us this was unimportant because the real cuts would be made when the debt ceiling bill was negotiated. Now here we are again with the same mealy mouthed crybaby negotiating away our position of strength to capitulate to Obama, Reid and pelosi.
My feelings are of sheer disgust.
Democrats have controlled the Senate and the White House since the election of 2008, and the House of Representatives up until this year. Certainly they could have passed any budget they desired, including one with tax increases and spending increases. But they chose to ignore the 800-day gorilla in the room because they don't want to be on record supporting a budget that actually does what they want. Then the public could hold them accountable for their cowardly and irresponsible behavior in the face of national fiscal calamity.

The point is, with each deal Boehner eats away more and more at the way the Dems do things. Why do you think Obama is so mad at him
No need for your disgust...this is the way forward.
This current deal will eat even more of the Dems' platform from under them and make no mistake...if Boehner's deal passes it would be a very large defeat for Obama.
Boehner would be stronger going into the Ryan negotiations and we would get more there (though no doubt not nearly enough for many conservatives). We just keep chipping away until we win senate and WH. Then obviously we have the majority of power and can have much larger wins.
It's the way forward. And it will win the war.
This is sarcasm.....right?
In actuality, the last deal got us further down the road (Obama didn't get the spending hikes he wanted), this current deal gets us further, Ryan's plan will take us more in the right direction, etc. etc.
That's IF we can defeat Obama this time (remember he's not getting anything he wants under the Boehner plan and the left HATES it) and thus keep momentum on our side.
Hanging on to disappointment over the last deal doesn't help in this scenario...it's self-defeating.
Poor Nancy, if she had only listened and not rammed obama are through over the citizens objections she wouldn’t be in this position now.
I dont feel sorry for her at all, she made her bed, now she can lie in it
Nancy Pelosi = tub girl.
For those doubting I would follow through:

Nancy, It seems we once again have a bill I don’t need to read. Seeing your hysterical reaction tells me Boehner’s bill is exactly the right Bill for America. The attempt by you, Harry, and Barack, to destroy this Constitutional Republic, will simply have to go on hold.
Who you callin’ ‘we,’ b!tch?
They really have no excuse - they know exactly what they are doing, and what it's intended results are.
They are vermin.
