@BuckMcKeon on how Boehner’s plan went out of whack [audio]
Rep. Buck McKeon (R-CA), Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, joined Brian and gave him a first-hand account of what went on at the meeting yesterday with President Obama and other Republican leaders. He said it was a serious and substantive meeting.
Chairman McKeon went on to talk about how Speaker Boehner’s plan got out of whack after the August break. He said because of what went on during August with Senator Cruz (being out there with his ads and his fight on Obamacare) it switched the whole debate and they got sidetracked into that. The debate became on the CR rather than the debt ceiling and it kind of threw everything out of whack!
