My gut tells me they “bonded” on the golf course last week and have cut a deal. It’s pretty ez to read the tea leaves. Clinton played Newt like a cheap violin and Obama is doing the same with Boehner. What is it about GOP House Speakers that allows them to be dominated by Dem Presidents? That said they still have to come up with enuff votes to pass the darn thing which nobody will read completely.

This has gotten so bad I’m not convinced he even cares about himself.

I read from another freeper’s comments once that Boehner likes to drink......overly....and considers Pelousy his friend. (sounded like a Freeper “in the know”, concerning DC dirt.)

Boehner needs to be given a REAL reason to cry, soon—loss of position.

The Congress neither works for, nor takes orders from, the Executive Branch. The Congress has the purse strings and the Executive spends the money and obligations that the Congress authorizes.

CONGRESS (House in particular)- GROW AND MAINTAIN A PAIR - THIS IS THE TIME FOR THE FIGHT OF OUR LIFE.

Tammy Faye will come out to the microphone and sniff into his hanky and say “thats all we could get” one more time. What else is new? They are going to cave just like they always do.

Has Boehner made a deal with Obama?

Why speculate when you can call him up and ask him?
