Why not insist he commit suicide too?
Boehner knows, probably more than just about anybody, just how much can be accomplished with the current situation and he probably got the best deal possible.
If you want a better deal, give the Republicans more seats, and in both houses.
Then you’ll get a better deal.

It’s not apparent to me at all that he has a deal. What is apparent, is that he is trying to muscle the Tea Party with hopes of sort of salvaging a deal (incidentally, a deal which is DOA on arrival in the Senate). So...just exactly what has Boehner done here which is so brilliant, and the best of all possible worlds?
“If you want a better deal, give the Republicans more seats, and in both houses.

That is painfully obvious and no one is disputing that.
The only question in front of us for today, is how to deal with the present crisis, and to cause as little damage as possible....including, not whipping the Tea Party Caucus to take a vote that will piss off their constituents and cause them to lose re-election....which would be a real step backwards, seeing as they are the only ones who appear to know WTF is going on in the real world.
Then you’ll get a better deal.
LOL! How soon people forget. The Republicans held all three houses during part of Bush's time in office and boy did we roll back big government then, eh?
Screw Republicans, get actual conservatives more seats.
