Cantor is 100% with Boehner on this. These are the numbers they've been putting forth for months.

Nice way to throw the Speaker and Cantor under the bus, boys. I don't know how they think they can leverage control of one institution into getting everything they want. This doesn't look principled--just amateurish.

CHECKS and balances.

There is one principle that the 'rats cannot evade: revenue bills MUST originate in the House. If the House doesn't pass it, the Senate and President are irrelevant.

This is Boehner's trump card and he knows it very well, as do everyone else in Washington.

So you endorse Boehner’s telling us his $1B in actual cuts is $1T in cuts? That’s more principled and professional to you?
