“House Speaker John Boehner said he agrees that the U.S. debt limit must be raised and the government can’t be allowed to default on its debts, but he also said Democrats are not serious enough about trimming entitlement programs.”
I imagine the discussion at the White House went something like this:
I listen to conservative radio all day – every day and don’t recall hearing Mr.boehner say the debt ceiling must be raised. Absolutely the wrong msg to send!!
We need to stand strong and simply stop negotiations,particularly with Mr. Obama. He ads nothing to the conservation except sound bites for the media.
