I think the house should break down the funding bill and pass it is separate chunks

The first stand alone chunk... funding for all social service programs, medicade, medicare, social security, ect.

I DARE Harry to table THAT!

Then if Harry does pass that, the I would send him a bill funding the military, and dare him to table THAT!

and just keep doing this over and over, until every important function of government is paid for and wont be shut down, EXCEPT Obamacare :)

-
The bill would then go to the senate, where
Reid would hold a vote on cloture, and get it.

He would add an amendment to include funding for everything else,
get his 51 votes to pass the amended bill, and send it back to the House.

If the House would not accept the amended bill from the senate,
the House would get blamed for not being willing to negotiate,
and therefore shutting down the government.

Just like the senate did with the first continuing resolution.
The senate mafia can do this over and over again.

I agree! Every funding bill will then be "clean" as King Obama and his court jester Harry Reid demand.

"We caved," the House GOP can say. "We gave them everything they demanded. They wanted clean funding bills and we gave them clean funding bills."
