Okay, where are we now?

Obama's indicated he'd sign a compromise and not use the 14th Amendment.

I haven't been shown that the compromise bill will pass in either the House or the Senate.

Do I understand the situation as of right now correctly?

2. They are all trying to grease the skids so that something will pass

It's all smoke & mirrors, and in the end the press will spin it as a magnificent victory for the republicans. and we will have even MORE teabag people showing up in congress:puke:
