Quote of Note: John Boehner
“The consequences of our not acting are overwhelming.”
House Republican Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio), September 29, 2008, referring to Bailout 1.0 [source]. Contrast this with Boehner's instigation of House Republicans on Bailout 2.0 yesterday -- not a single Republican voted in favor. The bill passed the House 244-188. Here's to consequences.
