Got NRO The Corner opened up: Looks likely the Boehner plan is going to pass. Enough reps have caved to pass this turd of a bill.

So it looks like the treasury won't have to chose who not to pay.

I was feeling great that my Rep Andy Harris was being a stand-up guy and now I see he's one of three from this list that surrendered. Shit.

So if I understand it right Dingbat Harry Reid is saying he is going to table the House bill and then send "his" bill to the House for a take it or leave it. I kind of hope he does that or tries to do it. It is going to be a lot harder to play the blame the Republicans game this time around. He and Bambi will own the fallout IMHO.

The media decide who owns the fallout.
