Boehner better not be buying the default-on-Aug-3 scare tactic.
It will be just like the CR....we’ll get the royal screw job and Boner will call it a victory.
Boehner was on Rush. Said: “There is no deal. No deal publicly; no deal privately.”
Revenues...Sheesh, well at least they aren't trying to raise taxes. /s

I wonder if he ever bites his tongue while attempting to talk out of both sides of his mouth.
This article doesn’t seem to tell us anything.
A crystal clear sign the Republicans are gonna cave is that they’re using the Democrat term “increased revenue”, or simply “revenue” to refer to a tax hike. Take that to the bank.
Just like the Republicans to let the Democrats define the terms of the conversation/debate.
Not a doubt in my mind that crybaby and his cronies will cave. Hope I’m wrong.
Wow the LYING spin continues...
We’re getting it from both sides. Flim-flam artists all.
I don’t trust the reports that say there is a deal coming soon. I don’t trust the repubs that say there isn’t. This will all be kept quite confusing until the day they open the box and give us our present. I’m not very optimistic as to how well we are going to like it.
There’s nothing here. More media psyops on conservatives.
Just once in my life, I’d like to see a politician do something radically responsible. We are bankrupting the greatest nation on Earth, and there’s no will to stop it.
Boehner will not be Speaker in the next congress whether he caves or not. One has to read the “tea leaves” Johnny Boy.
If I was trying to buy a used car and the only two salesman on the planet were Boehner and Obama, I’d RUSH to haggle with Boehner.
Boehner: Well here’s the bottom line, friend. My rock bottom price I’ll let this beauty go for is $20,000. Take it or leave it. But, well, if you decide you’re going to leave it... I’ve got a back-up price. But I really really think you should take my rock bottom price... it’s what’s right for both of us! (wink wink)
If you don’t make it clear you’re willing to deal with the consequences of walking away from the table... YOU DON’T BELONG AT THE TABLE!!!
Only losers compromise, John.
Are you a loser?
Demonstrate such, and you will lose, and so will we.
Choose wisely, I expect this is your last chance, and the last chance of everyone in this failing country.
I remember that you cried when you were awarded the speakership.
Is this what you intended to do with it? Compromise with those intentionally destroying our country? If so, that means you are also intentionally destroying it.
Is that why you were crying, John? Because you knew you had your chance to aid and assist the destruction of America?
Sure looks that way to me.
It ain’t over until the big boned lady with thyroid problem sings.
I'm concerned about the nation defaulting on its credit rating.
Boehner did not misspeak. He simply does not understand what is going on; a rough idea, perhaps, but not a firm grasp on the subject. Combine this with the absence of a conservative philosophical foundation and we have a problem.
My only hope is that Cantor can guide this sleepwalker through the balance of the negotiations.
Like I said in a reply I posted on a thread about a month ago; it really frosts me that these spineless pantywaists go through all the phony baloney shadow-boxing for soooo long, only to drop trou, bend over and grab their ankles when the chips are down anyhow!
Why didn’t the sorry creeps just do it immediately on the day they were sworn in and save all the BS and theatrics, when they knew in their hearts that when push came to shove they would fold like a cheap umbrella, anyhow! I hope the good people in Ohio have a good person lined up to PRIMARY against Boner the next time he’s up for reelection.
But, facing reality, I don’t think he or anyone actually cares if they’re voted out. It would decrease the perqs and under the table money they all siphon off over the years they manage to stay in office; but once they’re out, they get a full-salary pension and lifetime free healthcare, etc.
“as an Aug. 2 deadline looms on extending the debt limit.”
Aug. 2 deadline is a crock!
