“They need to get moving,” House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) said Thursday.

Boehner accused President Barack Obama of preventing Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus (D-Mont.) from cutting a deal with Republicans – echoing similar concerns relayed by Rep. Dave Camp (R-Mich.) to House Republican leadership.

“Right now the only ones blocking an agreement are Democrats and the president,” Boehner said. “It’s time for them to act.”

 

 
Oh, they're moving all right. Right outta town.

Tom Coburn threw them a curve on Morning Joe this morning. Following Obama marching orders, the MJ team was pressing Coburn on the possible political backlash of forcing Catholic entities to pay for contraception.

Coburn said that he wasn’t good at judging the political implication of things. And that what he found distressing is that we are focusing on this issue and ignoring the debt and deficit issues that will sink us all.

Poor Mika didn’t know whether to poop or wind her watch.

Stupidity and cowardice on parade. Boehner should pass a clean one year extension, period, kick it over to the Senate, and adjourn the House. Let the senate pass or table it, and take the consequences.
