re: #417 Targetpractice

This DL extension seems to be Boehner’s 4am craps table final throw, the desperate gamble in the hopes he can at least leave with his dignity intact. But the White House will pan it, the Senate will either pan it as well or send it back amended, and the TPers who seem to be going along are doing so only because they’re being promised some big payoff on the budget that’s never going to come.

And it still enshrines the DL as an incipient threat, an ‘or else we’ll default’.
