I hope you realize the final resolution to this “crisis” will be even worse than the Boehner bill which itself is watered down Cut, Cap & Balance.

2 weeks of political he!! and what the final outcome will most likely be is a net spending increase without an amendment.

What a waste!

Does`nt matter because the Senate will reject it. It`s just posturing.

Passed. Now does Boehner go back to his office and draft yet another bill, one with the tax increases the Dems want in it?

Well good. Let Reid sit on this and kill it and then be forced to come up with something. I really don’t think he can do it by Tues. He is a fairly incompetent person.

Does it still contain the "Super-Duper Congress"?? Pathetic, if so.

How much and how fast can the Debt Ceiling - that the Dims didn't touch the past several years - be raised?

There were several ‘new representatives”, who just couldn’t come to the table with Boehner, even though he went with the Tea Party, by adding Cut, Cap, and Balance the Budget Amendment to this bill.

Reid will table it in the senate to avoid having to vote on it and avoid making Odummy then veto it.

Fox says Boehner could only afford to lose 23 votes, but I saw that 5 Dems didn’t vote, so how do they arrive at 23?

He won’t get even one Dem vote. They’re all in against it. They got their orders.

Certainly makes the Rats look "balanced" and "compromising," now doesn't it?
