GOP heresy? Boehner won’t say tax cuts pay for themselves

[Swede]

Asked if he agreed with Greenspan, a long-time fiscal hero of conservatives, Boehner sidestepped the question.

"The only way to get our economy going again and solve the budget problems is to get the economy moving, get more people back to work where they can care for their own families, and begin to expand the tax rolls to bring more revenue for the federal government," began Boehner. "What we have to do is we have to get our arms around the spending spree that's going on in Washington, DC."

"You're not being responsive to a specific point, which is how can you be for cutting the deficit and also cutting taxes as well when they're not paid for?" asked Gregory.
