That's a total lie, Dave. Boner and Obama had a deal, Boner took it to the Tea Party house (R)'s, who told HIM he didn't have the votes if ANY tax increases were included, even though Boner got a great offer from Obama.

Boner isn't in control of the House.

>> Obama had every reason to be pissed.

Obama lied through his teeth. A deal had been reached and Obama tried to demand more taxes and Boehner said no way, we had a deal.


Obama has a base too. He needed to get something back more than Boehner could afford to give up.......because Boehner has a caucus that's pretty much untenable.

No one who has ever negotiated ANYTHING would do that. That is called a lack of good faith.

Oh........please. Negotiations go like that all the time. Try going into RE sales.

And then the bastard came out and tried to lay it off on the Republicans. It was sorry as hell. You don't make a deal and then try to change the terms. Gross incompetence on the part of Obama.


Yes, as if Rs are saints..........and everyone thinks they are the good guys. Please..........check out where R ratings are these days. Then check out at where Bush's and Cheney's ratings are.
