True, and not only do we not have the Senate, we don't have 67 votes to override a Presidential veto, which we also don't have.
Lee, Cruz, Paul, Meadows, Gohmert, and others are prepared to fund all the government spending by the CR with the exception of ObummerCare.
I count 4 GOP Senators and "others." You still don't have enough votes, or the President.
The rub is that McConnell, Boehner, Cantor, et al. are too scared to fight.
McConnell is a jerk who sold out the military during the Sequester. Boehner has no leverage, even with the GOP House members, because he cannot get enough votes. Cantor is another GOP member who sold out the military so it could be raided like an ATM to pay for the Welfare state (Entitlements are exempt from the Sequester, which he not only voted for, he helped negotiate).
In this case (the CR and Debt Ceiling), it isn't that they "don't want to fight", it is the same problem. They don't have the Senate, and they don't have the White House.
We have the House. We don’t need the Senate. We don’t need a presidential signature.
To continue to fund ObummerCare, Soetoro needs both the House and the Senate to vote for it. If the House doesn’t vote for it, it will not be funded.
You are dreaming. The beltway GOP has no intention to repeal Obamacare. If they did the leadership would be actively engaged and pounding the Dems on every bit of obamacare bad news. Why the blackout? Why do they refuse to directly engage obama on kenyancare? The kenyan told a whole pile of whoppers that are now proven false and yet we never here a word about it from leadership. Not one word!
How easily the cut and run crowd forgets that when the GOP had the Senate, House and WH they were happy to accommodate the Dems without regard to conservative principles. W Dropped SS privatization, turned Medicare part D into a monster, etc., etc.
The beltway GOP is just not interested in governing in a conservative manner. I am truly sorry you can’t see that. Bye.
