Nonsense. The Senate and the President can't spend money unless appropriated by the House. Let the House zero out the appropriations for Education, Commerce, Energy, and several other useless departments, then sit there on that position while the Senate and the President huff and puff veto until they're blue in the face. Refuse to budge. SHUT. IT. DOWN.
Sure the media will unleash an unholy assault. They'll do that whatever conservatives do. We have to fight to win.
