Zerohedge ^

S&P futures are now over 15 points off the day's highs, as it seems equity investors were hoping for a Cumbaya moment after the White House meeting today. However, as Bloomberg reports,

•*BOEHNER LEAVES OBAMA MEETING WITHOUT SPEAKING TO REPORTERS •*REPUBLICANS LEAVE WHITE HOUSE WITHOUT MAKING STATEMENT •*OBAMA REJECTS REPUBLICAN PROPOSAL FOR SHORT-TERM PLAN: NYT It would seem that Obama's "unconditional surrender or default" position has merely placed the pressure to act back on Boehner's shoulders.

It makes perfect sense. Obama want to precipitate a crisis because...........You fill in the blank. He wants fundamental change from a coutry relatively prosperous to everyone being broke.

I think it’s time they vacate DC and let it be the capital of the blue states. Let them do whatever they want.

Why doesn’t Boehner hold a presser and say: We Republicans have repeatedly offered to compromise, and offered specific continuing resolutions. The POTUS has consistently refused to negotiate. When and if the president wants this resolved by holding meaningful negotiations he can call me at the Capitol’s switchboard #(202)xxx-xxxx, as millions of Americans have in the past 10 days. Or Americans can call to demand the POTUS negotiate at the White House (202)xxx-xxxx.

The markets (and big business) want Obamacare. It will drive out the small business owner, and lead to true socialized medicine. Make no mistake, you will see the GOP cave, or drive the TEA party out.

Well let’s see if Boner’s half-assed surrender now turns into full-fledged surrender.

Republicans: The Other Democrats.

The GOP has completely caved and will get nothing out of this other than a “promise” to talk. What a complete waste of time. Destruction of the GOP and Tea Party brand in exchange for nothing. Sounds like classic Stupid Party tactics to me. Good grief...
