Inadvertently or not, John Boehner showed the way out of the shutdown on a Sunday talk show yesterday.
Listen to what he said on This Week with George Stephanopoulos:
STEPHANOPOULOS: He has not, perhaps, but I take it from your answer that you're not prepared to schedule a clean bill on government funding.The 2 Word challenge that all Democrats must issue
BOEHNER: There are not the votes in the House to pass a clean CR.
immediately :
PROVE IT!!!
short and sweet, if they are the ones they claim are not being serious and playing games, balls in your court.
John Boehner has now made his own credibility an issue in the shutdown.Americans want the government to re-open. Speaker Boehner is telling us that is not possible at this time and that our government must remain shuttered because the votes simply aren't there for a clean CR to pass.I personally hate to believe that the Speaker of the House of Representatives is an actual liar and yet, I have to believe that he is. I understand that the votes are there.
The only way to resolve this issue - Is the Speaker of the House of Representatives Being Truthful to the American Public is for him to PROVE IT.Offer up the clean CR with the same budget numbers you agreed to last month then count the votes.
they have lied and mislead us forever and really pumped it up the last 5 years, now we are to suddenly except the same lies that have been rebuked the last 100 + times they used them and forget all the heart ache, blood and money that party has caused us, nah SSDD.
i've said let them speak they will eventually let us in on their skulduggery and here's Beohner pulling back the covers.
