No More Short Term Continuing Resolutions
Posted on 03/14/2011 5:19:29 PM PDT by Qbert
Today more congressmen and senators are joining in not supporting the continuing resolution.
Senator Marco Rubio announced today that he did “Not come to the U.S. Senate to be part of some absurd political theatre.” He said he’ll vote against the continuing resolution because he is sick of the games being played.
And Rubio is not alone. According to Politico, Rep. Allen West is also against funding the CR.
More from Politico:
Last week, freshmen Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) also said he won’t support the bill and implied that a government shutdown might actually be good for the budget debate.
“I will NOT be voting for another short term CR,” he tweeted Wednesday. “There is a confrontation coming on this budget and the sooner we get to it the better.”
West added:
Rep. Allen West of Florida said it isn’t playing well back home and that constituents “are tired of half-measures.”
Warfighters.
Government shutdown - a temporary relief from institutional insanity.
Yay Allen West!
Rubio: my senator
West: my representative

Allen West is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN unlike Comrade Barry.
Of course he is not. Woo Hoo
I guess Allen West is in no mood to play games with the critical budget SNAFU. More power to him.
Two great men on the right side, as opposed to the weenies in House “leadership”. Bob
WEST in the West Wing 2012!
I’ve got Lou Barletta and Pat Toomey! Not shabby, but I’ll take your guys any time as well. Now that’s some representation you’ve got! Two of the very best. Bob
Good put Obotulism in his place.
Absolutely! Shut it down. The freaking Democrats and Keynesian Economics worshipers think that the only way to fix things is to break them and go to war, well, let’s try it out on them. Shut down the stupid federal government. The only thing we really need is the military and the FAA. And, the FAA could be done by the military.
Shut down the Fed! Save the Tax Payers!
I would vote for West for President over all other candidates, including Sarah. I wouldn’t mind a West/Palin ticket.
LUCKY!!!
Called Rep. Allen West’s office last Friday and was told after saying my piece that AW would not vote for the CR.
WE WANT THE $105,500,000,000 CONCEALED IN THE JOHN BOEHNER / BARACK OBAMA DEATH TO AMERICA HEALTHCARE BILL BACK !
VOTE: PALIN / WEST, CRUSH THE LEFT !
No More Short Term Continuing Resolutions
I think it is safe to say that 100 percent of all Freepers “LOVE” Allen West. This man is the one of few people in congress that is a true clear voice of “WE the PEOPLE”! This is a good example of how much better our 2nd tier canidates are than any of our so-called front runners.
You guys are really lucky ~ I now have Representative Cannoli, and used to have Moron!
