Reid talks as if the House sending individual bills is something unusual. Under the regular budget process, which we haven't had since 2009, the House would send individual bills to the senate for passage, conference and signature. What Harry has gotten into the habit of, is bundling all these bills into omnibus bills for one vote. And the continuing resolutions have continued this government funding by one vote business. We need to return to regular order, even without a budget being passed. So the House should continue to pass individual bills as if a budget was agreed to.

I am trying to find the speech where Obama actually said he was going to, "Fundamentally transform America"

Twitter photo by Charlie Spiering, the Washington Examiner.The Obama administration is adding more barricades at the World War Two Memorial in Washington, D.C. this morning, according to reporters on the scene.The reinforcements are being put in place apparently to prevent a repeat of yesterday when WWII veterans aided by several Republican Congressmen pushed aside barricades to visit their memorial.Buzzfeed got no response from the White House last night when queried about the administration closing the memorial to veterans.A report last night claimed that the Park Service would arrest veterans who attempt to visit the WWII Memorial.

Looking at the news this morning, the massive failure of the Clown's web site for NATIONAL Health care is being glossed over, isn't it... I am wondering if the federal government cannot run a mere "registration" web site, how screwed up will REAL health care be with these chumps in charge?

RINO Scott Riggell has surrendered. Calls for clean CR.

Subject: Government Shutdown Day one: I'm not missing government one bit. Keep it shut down.

Surely you've heard... "the end of days"; "prophecy is being fulfilled in our times"; "the time of the end is near"; "Armageddon"; "the mark of the Beast";... and Jesus said in the gospels, "So You, when you see these things happening, know that it is near... at the doors!" Well, human history is replete with evidence of the evils of sin in the heart of man but make no mistake, this history will come to an end. God's word says there will come a Time when He will draw Time to an end and He will set up a new...

I could've swore I heard on one of the news cables that the man-child was going to blubber more bullcrap around 12:30.....did anyone hear that?

Obama and Senate Democrats thought they could bully the House into passing funding for the federal government that did not include a amendment to defund Obamacare. Well that was not the case as the grassroots Conservatives rose up and demanded that the House Leadership stand strong in the wake of phony Democrat outrage. This partial shutdown is direct result of Obama and Senate Democrats wanting to protect the 1%ers that include Congressional Members, Staffers, Unions and Donors, NOT the American People! I say Conservatives must remain strong in the wake of the lapdog press, Democrats and French Republicans!

The House Republicans have grown a spine, and taken a principled stand against this economy-wrecking Obamanation (Which I compare to the Enabling Act of Nazi Germany). Now it up to US to make sure that we support them, even louder than we do when they do something we don't like. Right now, on CNN, they are running a live "Government Shutdown Clock", calling the Republican position "Stupid", and "Silly", while running Democrat quote, after Democrat quote. These people are going to BOMBARDED by a huge wave of liberal/leftist hate starting immediately. The endless media sob stories have already begun, being...

Just heard, just announced. GOP House to the rescue, will send a final CR to Senate to avoid government shutdown.

A little Republican bashing party coming our way.

FR won't let me post the link to Military Times, but the story is there ...

CNN Films canceled a planned documentary about Hillary Clinton on Monday after the project’s director abruptly dropped out of the project and said the Clinton camp had pressured people not to talk to him. Charles Ferguson, who had been tapped earlier this year to direct the film, wrote in a piece published on The Huffington Post that he decided to scrap the documentary because potential interview subjects refused to be interviewed. He blamed pressure from Clinton aides and supporters as well as the Republican National Committee, which banned CNN from hosting any 2016 presidential primary debates over the film —...

We are being told about Obamacare "it is the law, we should accept it". So Americans are being told that they should accept the 29 1/2 work week, that small business should have no more than 49 employees and that many more will be without health insurance shortly. Indeed, many have received notices that there insurance is being terminated due to the Affordable Health Care Act. Many in small businesses are being laid off so that business can stay under the 50 employee rule. And a host of Americans have had their hours cut back to less than 30. Indeed...

I was wondering what the word on the street is concerning Matt Bevin. He is running for US Senate in KY

About 350 homeless Superstorm Sandy evacuees who have been sleeping in New York City-funded hotel rooms for nearly a year may be forced to check out for good. The city has spent $70 million to house more than 3,000 refugees since the storm hit last October, officials said. Each room costs about $266 per night.
