"Apparently Boehner's last nite failure to get one piece of legislation onto the House floor for a vote shook up a lot of politicos." It was HIS bill. This wasn't the first time he's had to table HIS OWN BILL in the House he supposedly LEADS. I'm no historian, but I doubt that's EVER happened before, probably because every previous Speaker has been able to count votes and/or control votes. If you don't have the votes, you don't TRY to put a bill on the floor. How could Obama possibly negotiate with a clown like that? WHAT could he deliver? He's truly a pitiful human being. He should step down and end this self-abuse. If he were Japanese, he'd commit Seppuku.
