GOP: ‘Serious differences’ remain, talks may extend past Christmas

By Russell Berman - 12/12/12 10:39 AM ET

House Republican leaders on Wednesday warned their members that they might have to return to Washington after Christmas, claiming that “serious differences” remained in negotiations to avoid the “fiscal cliff.”

“The president seems to be walking us ever so slowly towards the cliff,” House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) told reporters after a closed-door conference meeting.

“We’ve said we’re committed to staying here. We’re going to stay here right up until Christmas Eve and throughout the time period before the new year because we want to make sure we resolve this in an acceptable way for the American people,” he added.

Hope they keep Obama held in up in Washington. Hate to see us have to spend the money to fly him to Hawaii several times.

BS......this is just a ploy to give Boehner an out for giving in at the last minute and "compromise" us into the poor house "to avoid economic meltdown".

I guess she has never heard that it's better to be quiet and be thought a fool than talk and prove you are one
