This is a cave pure and simple

It's not a cave since that's been the Boehner-Cantor plan all along.

He got exactly what he wanted. We did not get a tax hike and did not get increased spending over 10 years.

Now we go on to the Ryan plan and push for even more cuts.

It may have been Boner's and Cantor's plan but it isn't why the people elected Republicans into the House in 2010 for, therefore it is a cave. Regardless of what they "planned" if they raise the debt ceiling, especially without immediate cuts in spending, then it is a cave. Planning for a frickin' cave doesn't make it any less of a chicken sh** cave.

We did not get a tax hike and did not get increased spending over 10 years.

We haven't "gotten" anything yet, and BTW, we didn't "get" any spending cuts either.
