Wow, those are some HAPPY HAPPY Holiday Faces!

No Holiday Photo for Speaker and President as Fiscal Cliff Stand-off Continues
Boehner came to the White House last night for President Obama’s annual holiday party for members of Congress, but the Speaker didn’t pose for a photograph with the president as he has in the past and as other members of Congress did last night.
So; no moment of comity and holiday cheer. No shake of hands and warm chit-chat. No friendly greeting and moment where each pledged to work with the other to resolve this dilemma.
Bah, humbug?

Gorgeous photo of the two of them.
...he learned in kindergarten.
Hey Boehner, invite everyone but President Obama to your birthday party. That'll get him to fold!
