Charles Krauthammer proposed an interesting solution last night on Fox. He suggested that Boehner leave the Bill intact, but just change the expiration date from February 29, 2012 to December 31, 2012, send it to the White House, and dare Obama to veto it.
If Obama is in Hawaii he’ll have to return or the Bill becomes LAW in ten days. Hope Boehner was watching Fox News.
Dear Mr. Speaker: Shut down the House and go home for the holidays. Resume the rhetoric in January.
