This is what I think the Republican House ought to do. Pass a CR with wording that no one can be exempt, and that exemptions could not be granted under any circumstance. Then we would get to watch the Democrats in the Senate go through contortions as they reject that CR. Accomplishes numerous things, it shuts up the stupid moderates, like Peter King, and it exposes who really wants to shut the government down. The extra added benefit is the unions would be against Obama care and shouting at the top of their lungs against it. It would also put the press on the spot. Absolutely the best maneuver Republicans could employ.
O'Reilly had an interesting proposal; pass a CR for each essential category of spending, separately. Send them on to the senate, and let Reid and his minions twist in the wind trying to say no to funding the military, homeland security, social security, medicare, etc.
