Washington Junior High

Russell Berman and Sam Youngman at The Hill:

Republicans said tense negotiations over raising the $14.3 trillion debt limit at the White House ended when President Obama stormed out of the meeting with a stern warning to House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.): “Don’t call my bluff.”

…

Democrats immediately disputed the GOP account, saying Obama had sought to end the meeting when Cantor interrupted him to get a final word.

Is Washington D.C. some sort of giant middle-school/middle-finger combination?
