I’m watching CSPAN and it does not appear that the House is likely to pass the Senate’s POS cliff bill anytime soon. Plus they are negating Obama’s EO giving the Congress and all the Federal employees a raise.

So little spine, so little time.

Well if they don’t pass it by noon on Thursday, it amounts to the same thing as adjournment. All pending bills from a previous congress die. And the Senate cannot just repass it becuase all revenue bills must originate in the House (the Senate last night amended a pending House bill).

The House can then actually legislate, not be forced into an up or down vote at the very last minute.

Bonehead and Cantor are working with Pelosi to determine how many
Rat votes she can supply. Then Bonehead and Cantor will strong arm
the rest from the Rino Monkeys. I am hoping many Rino Monkeys
vote for this bill. Especially southern Rino Monkeys.
Can u say primary opponents in 2014?
