In the most dramatic example of someone give the teleprompter the finger on the debt target (f/k/a debt ceiling, in the pre Federal Reserve days), after earlier it was announced that Obama, so willing to continue the charade, was pushing for a Camp David meeting where the debt ceiling issue would be resolved, bunch-of-fat-old-men-locked-up-in-a-room-nobody-leaving-until-solution-is-reached style, Reuters reports that Boehner has politely refused this latest farcical denouement, and told the White House "that he sees no need to move the negotiations on debt and deficits to Camp David." In other news, it is now 7 days and counting until July 22.
From Reuters:
House of Representatives Speaker John Boehner, the top U.S. Republican, has told the White House that he sees no need to move the negotiations on debt and deficits to Camp David.
"The speaker has told the White House he sees no need to go to Camp David this weekend," Boehner spokesman Brendan Buck said on Thursday.
The White House had been weighing the idea of Camp David talks but no decision had been made and White House aides said there were "currently no plans for that."
Didn’t Stalin ‘summon’ his generals to his palace to ‘dance’ for him, before they were executed?
I like that idea.
I say call a press conference and give it to Mr. Dithers with both barrels.
I like that idea.
Boehner is stepping up - great.
I’m thinking that the interesting thing here is that Camp David is really on the POTUS side of the fence so why go there and be stuck there for the entire weekend?
“The squirrels can’t write notes or speak.”
They can with a squirrelprompter.
Would love to have see zero’s tantrum when he heard NO!
“Boehner is stepping up - great.”
No he is not stepping up. His statement is all defense. What a wasted opportunity. Even Pelosi turned this down. Let’s see what Boehner says after the 45 minute meeting with barry today. Anything less than “The President has no scorable plan” is not good enough.
THAT’S funny!!!
Um, we don't know what Boehner is talking about, yeah, that's the ticket! We didn't say anything about Camp David, yeah... How can he say no to something we didn't even have plans for?! Yeah, that's it! The nerve of the Senate leader inviting himself and then declining his own invitation... yeah...
I think you are seeing the pubbies getting a spine lately because of the following things:
1. The seriously of the situation
2. It is against the their/constituent principles
3. The incompetance of Hussien and his administration
4. The dangerous beliefs of the administration
5. The stability of Hussien
I think that the last 3 items have become more and more clear in the past year and especially since the GOP won the House. I bet Boyner and other Repubs are seeing, first hand, an unstable man in the White House. They should not deal with him.

Probably a fair approximation to the reality of his behavior in der Fuehrer Bunker.
You're right. ZERO didn't like the fact that Eric Cantor spoke to the press yesterday after the One's temper tantrum.
He apparently knows BS when he sees it.
I've always believed that saloon keepers have greater insight into human nature than most psychiatrists and psychologists with all their theorizing.
Actually, I like the word ‘seriousaty’, or ‘seriousatude’, myself.
