re: #164 dog philosopher

i can’t really bring myself to believe it

boehner is i think facing a ‘profiles in courage’ moment, where he is faced with preserving his own job vs bringing a clean CR and a clean vote on the death debt limit and saving the country from a serious crisis

i want to believe that in the end he’ll do the right thing

Well, if JFK purposely piloted PT-109 into Tokyo Harbor and then said “We’re not leaving because Ensign Frank is pissed he wasn’t made Admiral”, then, yeah: Boehner is just like JFK.
