Maybe Boehner will get into a crying jag, cave, then give Barry the 'alleged' Bill Frist treatment.

don’t.
That’s what the politicos are concerned about. Pragmatism over principle. That’s what we are up against.
Of course, we do have Fox. If they hammer it hard enough . . . .
“The House, I think, the House leadership, has to consider now what they will do, so we’ll see how it works out.”
