So what do you really want, Speaker?
Two months ago, Speaker Boehner said that there would be no reason for the government to shut down or not approve a new debt ceiling. Two weeks ago, he stated that the government might have to shut down so that the Affordable Care Act could be stopped, but that there was no reason not to increase the debt limit. A week ago, the Speaker told reporters that it was true that, in fact, the Affordable Care Act actually couldn't be stopped, and that the shutdown was actually about the growing federal budget. It didn't matter that in the 2014 budget, the Democrats went 90% of the way to the GOP number, and both sides agreed to that number. Then yesterday, the Speaker said that he refused to put to a vote either a clean CR or a clean debt increase bill. So Speaker, this really isn't about the Affordable Care Act, and it can'r be about the budget, since both Democrats and majority of the GOP agree on the size of the budget for next year. Now, would you please tell the American people what you and the GOP really want? Tell the American people what the actually end game of all this really is for the GOP. It's to get rid of the federal government, isn't it? Come on, Speaker, tell us the truth about what you really want.

He is trying to discredit the President so he won't get elected again. Oh wait, he can't be elected again because of the two consecutive term limit. I guess he forgot.
