Ordinarily, yes. But the problem is that thanks to caving, if this is true, Boehner will place his entire caucus at risk. This was a fight that, once begun, needed to be fought to the finish. Democrats will be energized and the Republican base has been told, once again, to take a flying leap. It wouldn't surprise me if large numbers of conservatives either stay home or vote against their RINOs. How will Republicans hold the House under those conditions?
It was always just a game. There was never hope of Obamacare going away. There was never hope of them not raising the debt ceiling.
The debt ceiling will be raised - forever.
The America you once knew is gone. It ended awhile back. Some know this. Some are still learning.
This is all just a bit of theater. Obama has won. Dare to take it back? Good luck with that. Lazy Americans will never rise up and take their country back.
The entitlement masses will rob you blind if their checks are ever cut off. Sure, you might get some shots off but in the end they will overtake you.
Game is over. We lost.
Think differently? Just look around you. What hope do you see? A few Tea Party members? Not enough.
NSA will make sure the trouble makers will never get out of the gate. You are being monitored. Everything you say and do online. Every phone call you make. Every email you send. All monitored.
Rise up? Good luck with that.
Defeatist? Maybe. Realist? Likely.
