Things are going from bad to worse for Speaker Boehner and the House Republicans.
Eric Cantor seems to want his job and is coddling the conservatives in the caucus.
For Speaker Boehner this is like herding feral cats that are getting increasingly wild.
The House rejection Tuesday of the bill overwhelming agreed upon in the Senate (89-10) to enact a compromise on the extension of the middle class tax cuts and unemployment payments was a shock—maybe even to Boehner when his caucus revolted over the weekend.
Hiding behind a conference committee or talking about a year extension is simply hogwash—the Tea Party House members want to kill it, pure and simple.
Republicans cannot make the argument that they are so concerned about the deficit that they want to shackle the middle class but let the wealthiest of Americans continue to get hundred of thousands of dollars in tax breaks that "are not paid for!"
