Threatening a Meltdown - By Robert D. Novak

Excerpt:
"Republican Leader John Boehner, in a private conversation on the House floor Wednesday, warned his Democratic counterpart, Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, of a legislative "meltdown."

Hoyer earlier had threatened rules changes limiting efforts of the Republican minority to alter legislation through "recommittal" votes at the end of debate. If that happens, Boehner told Hoyer, look for Republicans to delay the appropriations process and bring the House's work to a standstill."
