Yeah, the Republicrats are great at holding the line on spending, aren’t they?
And if Hal Rogers, king of pork, has anything to do with it this bill will be a real stinker.

Democrats are using McConnell's promise to not shutdown the government as a weapon against him by delaying, opposing, and filibustering until the deadline approaches? Then McConnell will give them everything they want?

That is the narrative.
However McConnel hasn’t made, and apparently won’t make, the Dems DO their filibustering and vetoing to shut down the government.
So: the RINOs say that shutting down the government has hurt them BUT here’s a chance to let the Dems shut down the government- and unavoidably get the “blame”- and they run from it.
My opinion is that the plan all along was to have this excuse to break the sequester and the narrative we’re getting is just a cover story.

I don’t see where there’s a problem here. The House can use reconciliation to send the Senate a bill which can’t be filibustered. It’s how the Democrats gave us Deathcare.
Let Barack be the one to cause a shutdown.

Exactly.
And if the GOP surrenders without doing that one has to assume they always intended to surrender.
...”Oh please don’t make us break the sequester!” said Briar Boehner and McConnell.

“With there powers combined, they are, The Uniparty!”
McConnell to Reid: “ OK, this week you get to scream “ I am outraged”, and we will sit quietly, while you trash us”
