He didn't cave.

He postponed the debt ceiling fight so he can win the CR fight, first.

Perfect strategy by Mighty John Boehner.

Question--After all the verbal BJ's and game playing when both sides declare victory do you think gov will spend less this year--do you think gov. will reduce in size--do you think they will reduce your taxes--do you think they will get rid of burdensome regs--If you do than you are a fool

Too easy Eglman. No fools here if that's the test

Ok..so I did some more reading on this and you guys are right. This is a good idea because it doesnt lump everything up together..they get rid of this for a while..and can then concentrate on the obamacare/shutdown thing, without this hanging over their heads..and grouped together by the dems.

Ya know..people just dont listen. Even ones that listen (like me) jump to the worst conclusions. In reading article comments..either these people are just reading headlines..or something, because they also think that this includes everything (obamacare, shutdown) and that doesnt seem to be the case.

But....I have a feeling Obama wont accept this.....however...if he doesnt..he isnt going to look that great.

The GOP is folding fast. Just listened to some dim bulb woman, Rep Lynn Jenkins from KS, on Kudlow that basically said they are opening the govt' Monday and probably taking everything off the table that means a shit so that Zero will be happy. Zeros man at National Review, Bob Costa also was talking like this thing has all the GOPe so uncomfortable, they are scrambling for a deal no matter how terrible.

Way to go Boehner. Way to fold on a winning hand. Good luck getting your majority back in power when the base totally gives up on your clownish candidates.
