I don’t know that they’d dare block either, Jim. But I do see your point. Dems will never vote to defund their entitlements.
But putting defense first would give Republicans a chance to counter criticism they have received regarding the balance of the sequester cuts and I have a feeling our troops would appreciate it. I know mine would.
Ok. Whichever they put first is fine by me as long as they follow through.
Heck, maybe they should put funding the congress first. Then the white house.
