Running on an anti-Obama agenda and sticking to their principles is why the GOP was given an increased majority in the House of Representatives and control of the U.S. Senate.

Will the GOP stick to its principles and promises?

What would Rush Limbaugh say needs to be done in this case?

The DHS will not enforce our immigration laws so who needs them? Shut them down and I’ll be happy to CREDIT the GOP with shutting down a worthless agency!

Will the GOP stick to its principles?

What do ALL of the current GOP presidential candidates have to say about this?

"Blame for DHS shutdown would fall to GOP"

says the media outlet that plans to be the center for blaming the GOP for a DHS shutdown.

Less than 10% of the sheeple are even aware of this issue...polling is useless.

But CNN knows what its doing. “Pardon me sir, if catastrophe ______ happens, will you blame the Republicans?”.

We shut them down in 13 and won in a landslide. Alway remember these people believe in global warming with evidence to the contrary.

“Running on an anti-Obama agenda x...x is why the GOP was given an increased majority in the House of Representatives and control of the U.S. Senate.”
fixed it for you

“Will the GOP stick to its principles and promises?”
LOL, rhetorical question right?

“What would Rush Limbaugh say needs to be done in this case?”
Don’t buckle or don’t shutdown but don’t do both.

It's a biased poll:
RESPONDENTS WERE NOT GIVEN THE OPTION OF BLAMING THE DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS

Same trick the media used during Cruz's 'shutdown'.

All the Republicans have to do is AR-TIC-U-LATE a clear, common sense (to borrow a phrase from the Lunatic Left) argument for their position.

If they can’t so that, then they should all commit seppuku in disgrace, because they are useless failures.

I mean really. How hard is it?

Email and Tweet McConnell. Press him to use the nuclear option. Let him know, that we know, he can pass this if he wants.

Translation: Unless the GOP majority goes along with the Dem minority, they will be at fault for whatever ills befall.

Poll: Blame for DHS shutdown would fall to GOP -- and CNN will make SURE that it does.

The GOP is blamed for icy roads, soggy hamburger buns, toads, and burnt out street lights. I think the GOP can stand this lie.

The survey finds that 53% of Americans freeloading, low information commie DemocRAT voters would blame the Republicans in Congress if the department must shut down...

2013 - GOP blamed for government shutdown.

2014 elections - GOP wins largest congressional majority since 1928.

Yeah, those government shutdowns are just killing the GOP

Obama had to go out of his way to make people notice the last shutdown. It cost more to “close” open air parks than to do nothing.

I expected Boehner to have folded by now. Pleasantly surprised by his last statement. The conservatives in the House are standing strong.
Mitch has already folded. Most of the GOP Senators want to give Obama money to pass out to Fraudulently Documented Foreigners. Sessions, Lee, Cruz, and a few more have been opposing all the Democrats and more than half their own party.
