Sorry. "New Revenues" not "New Taxes". My mistake. Here's a hint "New Revenues" is nothing more than political euphemism speak for NEW TAXES. Don't take my word for it, we'll all find out soon enough.
I lost any respect for Boehner a long time ago, and I suspect he is a large part of why no one respects congress, and especially the GOP.
Obama is the first president in over 70 years to be re-elected with fewer votes (9-10 million). That right their shows Obama does not an overwhelming mandate this time. Boehner does also not have to worry about hurting a presdential canidate.
