“House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan lashed out at Senate Republicans for interfering with the House GOP’s talks with the White House to reopen the government”
More like he lashed out at Senate Republicans for interfering with his and Boehnor and Cantor’s ateempts to cave in to the Whitehouse.
In other words, “How dare you interfere in our planned capitulation with a plan of your own!!”
Shifting the fight away from obamacare will be the undoing of the Pub elites. They think they will weather the storm from within the party and maintain their majority with their gerrymandered districts. I don't think so. A lot of Tea Party supporters such as myself will stop doing the leg work for the Pubs and stop voting in the general elections if it's not a Tea Party Pub on the ballot. Forget winning the Senate and after immigration reform forget winning the Presidency.
The article states: “One of the most significant differences between a House framework sent to the White House late Thursday and Collins’ plan is the length of time it would extend the debt ceiling. Boehner has put forward a six-week extension, while Collins’ plan has been reported to extend almost until February 2014.”
you stated: “More like he lashed out at Senate Republicans for interfering with his and Boehnor and Cantor’s attempts to cave in to the Whitehouse.”
The article is stating: “Senate Republicans, led by Senator Susan Collins of Maine, are negotiating with Democrats on a package to reopen the government and lift the debt ceiling into next year with relatively modest concessions for the GOP. “
it appears to me that Ryan is upset because Senate Republicans are offering the Democrats a longer debt ceiling extension [c. 4 months] period before budget talks would recommence than what the House/Ryan was proposing: a 6 week extension.
would someone explain why the carping at Ryan??
should Ryan be pleased that the Senate GOP/Collins wants to give this Administration even more time to extend the debt ceiling than what the House/Ryan was proposing?
what am i missing?
