Republicans planning to fart in the elevator and get off at their floor
Report: House GOP Considers Passing Bill, Then Leaving Town
Their plan to avert default fizzling, House Republicans are reportedly considering passing their bill and then skipping town.
According to Politico, House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH), House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) and House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) are discussing "voting on their bill and, if it passes, leaving town — a bid to try to force the Senate’s hand."
