“Assume Boehner’s plan passes.
- The GOP looks more reasonable, in bending to avoid default.
- Obama will have to go through this one more time before the 2012 election.

Sometimes pragmatism isn’t all bad.”
Or maybe the marxist vetoes Boehner’s bill, leaving him holding the bag for the ensuing mess (and there would be a mess, driven by fundamentals, and exacerbated by fear and greed). Pragmatism won’t permit him to risk the consequences, so the Republicans would win this particular skirmish if the bill makes it to the marxist’s desk. Which is why Obama, Reid and Pelosi want to kill Boehner’s bill.
Have we learned nothing? The Lamestream Media, that is to say O-bozo sycophants, will fall all over themselves to make him look like the victim of the mean old GOP.
Worse yet, all the sheeple who appear on Jay Leno's 'Jaywalking' epsiodes will buy it hook, line and sinker.
