They're still at it, apparently.
Despite all of House Speaker John Boehner's
bluster on Tuesday, he's still at the table with Obama, and apparently made
another offer, which might actually be essentially the same offer as last time: $800 billion in unspecified revenue.
The speaker's office isn't saying specifically what's in the offer, if there is anything specific in it this time around. Here are the questions they are refusing to answer.
The Huffington Post posed several questions to the speaker's office: Did you give the White House a menu of cuts you'd accept and ask them to pick from among those? Or are you still asking the White House to propose the cuts? What if the White House doesn't want any cuts beyond what it has proposed?
"We will not provide further information," Steel said.
There we are. Where that is, who knows. But it kind of makes a liar out of Boehner, again, since he just said hours before that the president was "slow-walking" the process and nothing was moving in the talks.
