John Boehner: “We're talking about real spending cuts here, no smoke and mirrors.”

For a bill that was supposed to be about jobs, jobs, jobs, has turned into a bill that`s all about spending, spending, and spending.

I'd rather set myself on fire than to run for office again.

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 want to work with you. But I`m just stuck.
