One step at a time. Give him support, it is hard to be called called down for ever forward move. Of course, the republicans do not have the power to make these changes , they are not in power, they only have the house, if all stand by their party. Criticism comes easy. Change is difficult and hard won.

Get behind John and pray for his strength and success in this endeavor. Ask God to forgive us our wanton ways and to block funding of planned parenthood. Which is a huge expensive death machine to our population growth in America. Wrong on any level. Rare is it that a woman might die because of childbirth. It is a risk of being alive. To abort millions of babies is sinful, before God and we are receiving troubles caused by it. MO

Hey, hey, hey! Do you want John Boohoo to start crying again?!? It took us two days to get him to turn off the waterworks the last time. Take it easy on the big fellah!

Why don't you go and try and do his job....you are just another armchair expert without a clue what is taking place...

All military personnel were issued checks or vouchers dated from April 1- April 8th and told that would be the last check they received if Congress did not pass a bill to extend the budget. Most other Federal employees didn't receive these checks/vouchers, just the military.

Congressional offices were overwhelmed with calls, emails and face to face confrontations from military personnel and families pleading with the Republican Leaders to cut a deal.. So Boehner took as much as he could get and made a deal, not because thats what he or the others wanted, but he, nor our party, wanted to stop the military from receiving their pay.. That was the deciding factor.

Here is what a young family member said while serving in Afghanistan: "I am being paid from the 1-8th of this month and no more, yet I will continue to serve my country to the best of my ability. Just please don't ruin my credit!!!!"

Here he is serving in another foreign war and he has to worry about this...the left is holding our military as a hostage...

I just thank The Lord for Boehner and his ability....
