Since that action has been put on hold by this judge, Boehner has now been given an "out" from this impasse with his Teahadist wing. A savvy, competent politician and Speaker could avert the shutdown now.

Some people say it's foolish to worry about soulless creatures overtaking the earth and devouring our brains. I say they've already won.
The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.
H.L. Mencken
