Surprise, surprise. Way to go House GOP. You got republicans and conservatives fighting with each other over a bill that will be tabled in the Senate.

That was going to happen anyway, so what is your point?

That's because Obama has another plan already up his sleeve. He's waiting until the 11th hour so that when the Republicans vote against his “genius plan to save America” they will be blamed for whatever happens on Aug 2 (if anything does happen).

Notice they will table it. Not vote it down. If the Senate GOP hangs tough and blocks Reid’s bill they may just have to take it up again. I would have thought the Dems would just amend the heck out of it and send it to conference.

Did you think there would have been a bill that wouldn't have been tabled in the Senate?

Why exactly are you blaming the GOP for that?

The WH is playing a huge game of chicken. They know they’ll have their maximum leverage on Aug 1 at around 1130PM. They think that when it comes down to it the GOP will fold, just as they largely did in April over the CR.

I don’t knwo what will happen but it won’t happen until the very end. I think there’s a good chance we go past Aug 2.

If they vote it down it returns to the House and can be resubmitted. By tabling it without action it remains alive but sealed in the Senate,forcing the GOP to develop, vote on and submit a different bill

And your point is??????? You want them to pass a blank check to 0bama and no budget reforms? ANYTHING short of that was going to get tabled by reid - you expected more?

I wish a really knowledgeable parliamentarian would tell me and the GOP what the options are in the Senate if the House bill passes today. I want somebody on our side to come up with some of those “deem-it-passed” maneuvers. We can wait to vote out the Senate Dems at the ballot box, but it would be so much more fun to bamboozle them for a change.

On the other hand if all the senate pubs just vote present not no and it gets sent back to the house and the house pubs vote present not no here either, Guess what they have then. The demons definitely own the whole thing and no claims to bipartisanship.

A tweet is worth what ? Just a contest to see who can be first in the echo chamber.

And that is EXACTLY what will happen.
