Update 2: House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (D-MD) said no progress was made on the talks today.

Update 3: Reuters is reporting that Obama would not back down on a comprehensive deal to raise debt ceiling, even if it jeopardizes his reelection chances.

“Would Ronald Reagan be sitting here,” he reportedly asked. “I’ve reached my limit. This may bring my presidency down, but I will not yield on this.’’

WH spin

Update 4: Democratic aides continue to push back against Cantor’s account, telling NBC’s Luke Russert that Cantor was rude at the end of the meeting, and Obama ended it.

“Dem Aide, no walk out: Cantor rudely interrupted POTUS 3 times to advocate for short-term debt ceiling increases while BO was wrapping mtg,” Russert tweeted.

This clown is so over his head by mentioning other Presidents, and what they would do in his current situation. I'd laugh in his face if he mentioned Reagan in any serious conversation, or any other former President, for that matter. It's YOUR JOB NOW, BARRY. This fool is more concerned with his place in history than actually serving his constituents. The next two weeks will bring the end of Obama’s presidency, for all practical purposes.

The guy isn't trying to help the country; he's trying to force his marxist dreams on the United States.

"Would Ronald Reagan be sitting here?"

America knew Ronald Reagan. Ronald Reagan was America's friend. Barack Obama is not Ronald Reagan.

Ronald Reagen could probably never ever conceive the possibility that DC would ever get over 10 trillion in debt.

Well, perhaps maybe if the US was under attack from space aliens for years and fighting for its survival. :>
