I can't make heads or tails out of what's going on.

The smartest thing no balls Boehner could do right now is have a clean CR vote.
They have lost the leverage on the debt ceiling by pulling this stunt. That is the only good thing......I do not believe they would be so stupid to pull this again in two weeks. But who knows.

this is what happens when low information voters and plutarchs join together

All of which will be blamed on Obama.

Then she went down on the Mall to get facetime in front the cameras at the WWII Memorial after a busload of vets stormed the barriers to visit it.

Ironic or moronic?

Anyone catch any of the "modest" proposals such as stripping out birth control from the ACA floated by Boehner and the Tea drenched caucus? They also were looking for loosening regulations on the enviroment. Poison pill legislation, anyone?

So much for the Repub's claims that congressional Dems won't deal on the budget. Looks a lot like the "Ryan Budget" to me.
