John Boehner just got played for a fool. Headlines are Harry Reid is offering bigger cuts than Boehner and no tax increases.

@JRubinBlogger @jimpethokoukis No doubt they are a scam, but he’s beating Boehner in the dumbed down headlines.

@JimPethokoukis @EWErickson but Reid cuts are a scam..details to follow
It doesn’t matter what Obama says or wants anymore. He has been dealt out of the game.
Second, it doesn’t matter if Reid’s cuts are real or illusory. If they are real, then Obama/Reid infuriate the Left. If they are a sham, then the credit agencies will step in and downgrade our debt, thus further weakening the economy.
Frankly, if the Reid plan is a sham, I don’t think it can get through the Senate itself, anyway.
What we need most today is for Reid to make his plan public. Boehner should wait on his plan until Reid issues his.
So Boehner has to control the headlines from the Lame Stream Media, or he’s played for a fool??
That’s a no win, eh?
The day Boehner can control the headlines of the LSM, that’s the day pigs will sprout wings and fly to Mars.
LOL
