I tend to believe this above.
Some Dems now see Bohner as their bitch and so he will pass amnesty as he did the bill yesterday
But the attacks and insults made publicly against Bohner over the past few weeks at some times more than Cruz was getting has not put him in a mood to give Reid and Obama anything, and I bet not the others either.
Maybe Reid should have tied amnesty to the debt limit. Too late.
I hope i am right for sure
DEMS PUSH TO TAKE UP AMNESTY, SAY BOEHNER WILL CAVE
And in other news:
The Pope is Catholic
The sun rises in the East
The sky is blue
The grass is green
etc., etc., etc.
Boehner is the Spelunking Speaker. He lives to cave. And cry.
“On Thursday, President Obama took to the White House podium to triumphantly announce the end of the government shutdown. In doing so, he proclaimed that he wanted to push forward with other legislative priorities, including a budget”
Obama is not looking for a budget deal. He already got what he wanted. He’s been given permission for NO NATIONAL DEBT LIMIT until Feb 7th. No matter how much the deficit and the borrowing grows between now and then, he will, as he has done EVERY YEAR - NOT NEGOTIATE, never agree to a compromsie on HIS spending, wait and create another 11th hour crisis, with the simple phony threat - default looms, and his demand to resolve it - raise the debt limit or again have no debt limit.
When Obama says: [I]n the coming days and weeks, we should sit down and pursue a balanced approach to a responsible budget, a budget that grows our economy faster and shrinks our long-term deficits further,, you can translate that as a budget approach that grows the taxes to match his spending - period. AND when he says “shrinks our long term deficits further it is NOT about the revenue side, which is growing in the current tax regime, but that it - revenue - will never grow Obama enough to match the kind of spending his plans and programs are increasing federal expenses to.
Boehner and the RINO’s are making the French look like towers of steel....
Isn’t Boehner French for massive caverns?
The old joke about progress was that it was, “Three steps forward and two steps back.”
The Republican’s new version is, “Ten steps backwards, and then twenty more.”
Comity is the main goal. So after caving the Democrats insult the Republicans at length, and they rather enjoy it.
Oui...
I have nothing to add to my longtime tagline.
I have nothing to add to my longtime tagline.
For probably the first time in history, the Democrats tell the truth. The only question is when will Boehner cave.
