THE REASON FOR BOEHNER’S OVATION…. John Boehner, last week:
At 10:51 a.m. on Thursday, the speaker of the House took questions from reporters about the tick-tick-tick toward a possible government shutdown. “Democrats are rooting for a government shutdown,” said John Boehner.
John Boehner, this week:
House Republicans huddled late Monday and, according to a GOP aide, gave the speaker an ovation when he informed them that he was advising the House Administration Committee to begin preparing for a possible shutdown.
Maybe now would be a good time to revisit which party is “rooting for a government shutdown.”
