Tell it, Obama

"The only thing that is keeping the government shut down, the only thing preventing people from going back to work and basic research starting back up and farmers and small-business owners getting their loans, the only thing that's preventing all that from happening right now, today, in the next five minutes, is that Speaker John Boehner won't even let the bill get a yes-or-no vote because he doesn't want to anger the extremists in his party," Obama said.

"There will be no negotiations over this," the president said.
