Pathetic Boehner to add balanced budget amendment to get support of teahadists

[There Is No Spoon]

What a pathetic, pathetic action.

Instead of being just DOA, it's now double dead on arrival in the Senate.

What a buffoon.

Do Republicans have 3/4 of state houses?

Everything they do is for show.

The teabaggers will vote for the bill with the crap added on and make Boehner look like he got something done. When all it really shows is that those mad hatters now own the repub party. Crush them!!!

[Cha]

Orange got crushed.

A deal is in the works. This is for political cover for repugs. As said above, the amendment won't go far after this.

Wall Street seems convinced that a deal is in the works, so you certainly may be correct.

Let them have their vote on the BBA. Like everything else, it won't go anywhere fast. He can only promise to hold a vote but he can't promise to deliver the votes because that would require Democrats none of whom AFAIK would ever vote for it.

You know, Boner has been talking to the President more than we know...

Yes, I think I see some of our president's political genius going on right before our very eyes...

Hmm...
