Referring to the need to raise the debt cieling sometime during the 1st quarter:
In his statement, Boehner did not question the need for an increase, but said it must be accompanied by other measures."Spending cuts - and reforming a broken budget process - are top priorities for the American people and for the new majority in the House this year, and it is essential that the president and Democrats in Congress work with us in that effort."
Right... looks like an interesting brinksmanship showdown is coming, huh?
