I don't disagree with you at all. I'm not sure where the disconnect between us is.

The congress most definitely may adjust, suspend or repeal various provisions of law passed through prior acts.

Absolutely, 100% agreed. The point of the article is that Congress must take affirmative action (i.e. vote) to "adjust, suspend, or repeal" those various provisions.

Therefore, if Congress doesn't pass legislation that explicitly adjusts, suspends, or repeals Obamacare funding, then it stays funded by means of prior provisions - because they remain in effect.

Ok, and that’s what I said above. The house should reject whatever the senate sends back and pass a new bill funding all but obamacare. There, it’s explicitly defunded. If Obama and Reid wish to cut their own throats by shutting down the goverment, go for it. We’ll have a Republican house and senate in 2014, plus the presidency in 2016. The vast majority of the American people are not stupid. Just the ones voting for socialism/fascism.
