http://mildlyrelevantthoughts.com/2011/07/boehner-keeps-blank-check-away-from-president-obama/Much has been made of President Obama’s “blank check” by Republicans looking to snap the nation’s credit card as if Uncle Sam is nothing more than a Hilary Banks ripoff. Speak Boehner brought “blank check” out again Monday night during his response to President Obama’s response to being “left at the altar” by Republicans several times on debt ceiling talks. “The sad truth is that the president wanted a blank check six months ago, and he wants a blank check today,”said Boehner. And then it hit me. The reason why Republicans are having the damnedest of times negotiating with this President. It must be because they’re confusing him with the adolescent child who was given a “blank check” after his bicycle was run over in 1994.
