Boehner to ruin Halloween!!!!!

  In response to John Boehner's attempts to temporarily lift the debt ceiling as opposed to White House wishes that the whole dang thing be moved past the Obama re-election hopes, the White House is again resorting to lofty arguments and intellectual logic to make their point that the debt ceiling needs to be raised permanently.
  They are doing this by complaining that Boehner will be ruining the Halloween (aka holiday) season with nasty disagreements about how much more debt we should go into as a country.
  Here's the quote:
Happy Holidays America: Boehner plan would have the debt ceiling all over again during the holiday season, which is critical for the economy,” White House deputy spokesman Dan Pfeiffer declared today at 9.50 a.m
  And this from the WaPo:

Under the Boehner bill, we will be right back into this debate during the holiday season, which is the most important time in the year for our economy.
On MSNBC this morning, top Obama adviser David Plouffe made a similar claim, pointing out that the Boehner plan would ensure that “this whole debt ceiling spectacle” will be “repeated again a few montsh from now over the holidays.”
“The debt ceiling debate would ruin Christmas,” Plouffe said. He was apparently ad-libbing the line, but now it’s found its way into the White House’s official talking points.
  We tea partiers cannot bear the thought of ruining Halloween for our White House friends.
  We know their costumes are already ordered.
  Complete with masks and all.
