The verdict is in: Team Boehner has taken Round One of the great journalistic reconstruction of last year’s failed debt talks.

obama is smashing EVERY DEAL this year.

Cause he needs to sell the 'get the repubs out of congress cause they pride themselves on not getting anythign done!"

And really, the GOP standard line of "I'm here to do NOTHING" is pretty weak.  So let's see how that works for them in 2012.

Lol 240, what youre describing is EXACTLY what he's doing with Oil (turning everything down but trying to take credit for high production even though it has nothing to do with him), and has nothing to do with what was written in the article. Lol. But dont let facts get in the way or anything.
