NRO: “Even as the White House quickly rejected it based on leaked details, House conservatives are calling a proposal unveiled by Speaker John Boehner at this morning’s conference meeting a “working document” and saying they expect several additions to enhance the leadership’s bid.
“That was a framework from which to build from,” says Representative Tom Graves of Georgia, one of the leading architects of the push to defund Obamacare in the House.
“We gave a bunch of different options” in the meeting, says Representative Mick Mulvaney of South Carolina, referring to conservatives, “the bill probably will end up being tweaked a little bit before it gets to rules.”
Members described a vigorous, “family discussion” in the meeting, which went one hour beyond its scheduled time. Representative Joe Barton, who has previously complained about proposals to end a special Obamacare subsidy for Congress, demanded “anyone who wasn’t elected” leave the room, referring to staff.”

Thanks for the additional info in this post and your previous one.
Have to leave now and go with other news sources until I can get back here...
I hope that Obama keeps rejecting Boehner's cave proposals. That strengthens Ted Cruz's argument that the Republicans need to stand firm for at least an individual mandate delay and tough it out through the supposed 'default'.
Anyone who shouldn’t have been elected should leave the congress.
