Boehner: Obama can help pass Plan B in Senate, or ‘be responsible for the largest tax increase in American history’

The president’s offer of $1.3 trillion of revenue and $850 billion in spending reduction fails to meet the test that the president promised the American people: a balanced approach. And I hope the president will get serious soon about providing and working with us on a balanced approach,” Boehner said in a brief statement to reporters Wednesday. - Alexis Levinson/Daily Caller
