Boehner apparently walked out when Obama demanded millionaires pay more
The cost of making millionaires pay the Clinton era rates is $400 billion--exactly the amount Boehner referenced.

6. Who said Obama stormed out? My point was GOP protecting millionaires.
They're not working for the 'working stiffs' who President Obama said should be the concern of all of Washington every day.

3. Yeah, no kidding.
Sort of like that image during Katrina, when a news article showed an image of a white couple "finding food," and a black couple "looting food."

5. Eric Cantor was cooing commands to Boehner in a hidden earpiece.

11. They're not "millionaires."
They're "job creators." Funny how we haven't seen one job out of them since they started using that meme 30 years ago. :eyes:
