Robert Gibbs didn't rule it out.
But Mr. Obama may be running out of time. His press secretary, Robert Gibbs, was asked Monday if the president would simply post his own bill if the House and the Senate cannot come to terms.

They'd really have no choice. They have to get a bill through Congress. However, it looks increasingly likely that the Senate bill with the House fixes will be passed somehow.
