In my optimistic moments, I predict that life will imitate art...

Boehner: After much thought and consideration, I have decided to make a concession or two. First, I will allow the debt ceiling to increase.

Reid: Oh, you got that right!

Boehner: But I demand that we have another crisis next Thursday.

Reid: No.

Boehner: Accepted. In addition, I demand that Obamacare remain defunded.

Obama: Absolutely not.

Boehner: Then can I have your pen?

Obama: You mean this cheap White House commemorative pen we have millions of back in the office?

Boehner: Yeah.

Obama: No.

Boehner: Oh man. So after all this, I end up with nothing?

Ghost of Lincoln: How about this: Every night I'll visit you in your dreams and tell you that you showed true leadership, and probably saved the Republican Party from total collapse.

Boehner: Aww, Abe. . . . Will you call me Big Orange while you do it?

Ghost of Lincoln: No.
