A shutdown is not necessary. Just do not fund that part of Fedzilla.

Bob Beckel, the Schmekel, said about 5 times yesterday on The Five that the Republicans wanted to shut down the Government, and only on the fifth time did Katie Pavish say “No, they don’t”....all the other times they just let tha LIE lay out there!!

Of course it is a lie but when the Democrats-Obama own the media good luck in getting your message out in a way that can refute Democrat lies and BS

[yldstrk]

I just want it to shut down to stop wasting our tax dollars

Good for Lee

Nearly every time the Dems and Obama aren't getting what they want, they accuse the Pubbies of wanting to shut down the government.

Of course, some of the incendiary remarks from a few Republican commentators, some not actually in Congress, don't help. They have been using the ‘shut down’ mantra for years when they don't get what they want.

Bottom line — the Pubbies always come out on the short end because they have not learned an effective was to combat the charge. Thus, to avoid it, they cower and do every thing they can to avoid a government shutdown, including compromises. Of course, for the Pubbies, compromise means the Dems get what they want, and the politicians call that bipartisanship.

From the article:

“It’s a lie because I’ve never called for a shutdown, I’ve never asked for a shutdown, we don’t need a shutdown, we don’t want a shutdown,” Mr. Lee said in response to that argument, as reported by Politico. “In fact, the whole reason I am bringing this forward is to avoid a shutdown.”

Good on you Sen. Lee. Perfectly put.

Removing funding for nobamacare from the Continuing Resolution has nothing to do with shutting down the government. The pubs need to fight back HARD against those who say they are promoting a shutdown.

Sen. Mike Lee is rejecting the argument that Republicans intend to shut down the federal government over efforts to defund Obamacare.

Agreed!

There are thousands of other reasons to shut down the government.

[Rodamala]

B...but, it was the evil GOP that shut down the tours of the White House.

“..“I need you to help communicate a message, a message to defeat a false narrative based on an absolute lie that has been perpetuated by the political ruling class elite in Washington, D.C., that’s been dutifully reported by an all-too-willing-to-comply media, and that lie that the effort to avoid funding Obamacare...”

We CAN help Mike Lee communicate the message by writing a letter to the editor to our hometown newspaper. If we all did that, and asked that readers call their U.S. senators, and House members, I believe we could make a HUGE difference.

We MUST help our CONSERVATIVE politicians counter LMSM.
