Quick Fact: Boehner Admits Republican Defeat...Budget Deal Will Get a Vote

The deal is done.  Voting taking place today and President Obama is expected to sign it this evening.


As posted by Steve Benen:
"Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), officially out of options, has agreed to bring the bipartisan Senate package to the floor, where it's expected to pass with largely Democratic support.  It will still need the support of no fewer than 17 House Republicans, but that's not expected to be a problem...Democrats will pay no ransom...The Republican Party has absolutely nothing to show for their efforts, except a collapse in public support,"
Please, please, please let the House come to their senses and pass this bill.  
And please, please, please, PLEASE stop this from happening all over again in a few months.
