The cynic in me says of coyese he won’t accept a clean bill because the Senate sent back a dirty bill.
All about the word parsing.

Exactly! We have to show our approval when they move in the right direction. Otherwise, they’ll have no reason to keep moving that way.

coyese = course

the House will not approve the Senate version of the bill

Thanks JimRob, and Speaker Boehner!

• Rand Paul: GOP ‘probably can’t defeat’ Obamacare
• Paul: We probably can't get rid of 'Obamacare'
• Paul pushes to restore state felon voting rights as part of push to reform sentencing
• Rand Paul’s immigration speech

  Let’s start that conversation by acknowledging we aren’t going to deport 12 million illegal immigrants... bringing these workers out of the shadows and into being taxpaying members of society. Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers.12 million more people assimilating into society. 12 million more people being productive contributors. [but he’s not in favor of amnesty, snicker, definition of is is]

• Rand Paul: Time for GOP to soften [immigration, gay marriage] stance

  ...by softening its edge on some volatile social issues and altering its image as the party always seemingly "eager to go to war... We do need to expand the party and grow the party and that does mean that we don't always all agree on every issue" ... the party needs to become more welcoming to individuals who disagree with basic Republican doctrine on emotional social issues such as gay marriage... "We're going to have to be a little hands off on some of these issues ... and get people into the party," Paul said.

.........let us hope Bodhner/Cantor put their brains in the freezer and find someone that has one! Then, maybe we will get a “SMART” response for a change.

I like Pat Buchanan’s idea. Send them one CR at a time by department starting with the Defense department. Then dare Reid to stop the military checks.

[Jim Robinson]

Yup. And that was Senator Cruz’s plan all along too.

And before that, James Madison’s (Federalist 58).
