This clearly shows you know nothing about civics. Congress spends the money, makes the laws and tax's, not the president. The president either signs a bill that congress comes up with or veto's it. The republicans had a plan b in the house and john boehner couldn't even get the republicans to vote on there own bill. Not sure if you have noticed but the republicans are having a civil war.
However lets also add that republicans only keeped the house because they won a lot of state legislatures in 2010 and redrew congressional districts way in there favor, So much so that democrates had 500,000 votes more in the house and republicans still held onto the house by 17 seats. The republican party is in massive decline.
Oh and democrates passed a plan in the senate months ago and John Boener won't put it up to a vote in the house because it would pass and he is scared to loss his speakership.
It's nice to know that you watch corporate news and don't even understand the order of things in the goverment. Have fun being mad when it's the republicans blocking everything because there scared of grover norquist threatening to beat them in primaries if they don't do what he says. So it's great you got a guy not even elected owning the republican party by the balls. LOL
