Hold the line in the House. That’s our best shot.

Exactly. It doesn't matter WHAT CR passes or what the CR "says" it will fund. At the end of the day, the House of Representatives is responsible to "cut the check" for all expenditures.

Will the House of Representatives have the balls to simply "not cut the check" for Obamacare?

BTW Jim, why is it everyone's focused on the CR and what the CR says, RATHER THAN what the Constitutional Responsibilities of the House of Representatives is?

It's simple: No matter what CR passes, DO NOT PAY FOR OBAMACARE. It's really that simple. Will the Republicans stand together on this one, or will they collapse like a cheap suit bag?

Given Boehner's in charge of the House and Eric Cantor has exposed himself as a STATIST RINO, I'm not terribly hopeful - however I'll be ecstatic to be proven wrong!

Keep up the fight!

Yup. The House controls the purse strings per James Madison and the Founding Fathers. They as the representatives of we the people have the constitutional authority and duty to rein in runaway government by simply not funding it. We the people are the final arbiters. If the congress fails to do its constitutional duty, then its our duty to send them packing in the next election.
