A very stupid move IMO.

I think, after the House dug their heals in and decided to completely vote against it, he should have just taken out everything he didn't want, and put the stuff back in he DID want that they took out for republican support. Fuck them. He will not get any support from them. That is pretty obvious.

Politics as usual, none of that surprises me. Obama and the Dems will still hold the bag if this fails.
