John Boehner: “And he told me it had been taken care of. And -- and in -- in my position, it's in his corner. It's his responsibility.”

I`m a Republican actually, I`m a conservative Republican, but I`m not crazy and then they`ve got, I don`t know, these noisemakers I`ll call them. Ted Cruz, Jim Jordan, I could go down a long list of people more interested in making noise…

Let me just be clear here. A debt limit increase without any reforms to lower our deficit just isn`t going to cut it.

I think there’s a point here where the American people are wondering, is the president above the law? The president could have put this whole issue behind us, not put the country and the world through this misery, if he had just told us…

Even though I didn`t really want to go the direction where the team`s gone, they were the ones who elected me to be the leader, and I had an obligation to go lead them.
