Speaker Boehner is 'flabbergasted' by White House proposal to avoid fiscal cliff

Speaker Boehner is understandably frustrated by the absurd proposal put forward by Tim ‘TurboTax’ Geithner and the Obama administration.

"The president's idea of negotiations is roll over and do what I ask," says Boehner.

Did he really expect anything different from this administration?

Here’s more from Boehner this morning:

Boehner sternly tells Chris Wallace, "We are going to solve this debt problem…We are not going to kick this can down the road again."

On Fox News Sunday, Boehner says the proposal put forward by Treasury Secy Geithner is "nonsense."

What’s the point of having negotiations if Boehner is expected to give Obama everything he wants?
