After passing this surrender bill, they leave the lion’s den of Washington... straight into the arms of the base, who are mad as hell.

Can a branch, Senate or House, adjourn without consent of the other branch? I know they can go
into recess but adjournment I’m not sure.

Maybe someone can explain......

If we hit the technical default wall with Republicans effectively AWOL

Any article with the word 'default' used in any sense other than 'Debt ceiling does not equal default' is not worth reading.

If the GOP fails to kill Obamacare, they might as well go home.... and stay there.

Luke 9:3-5
New King James Version (NKJV)
3 And He said to them, “Take nothing for the journey, neither staffs nor bag nor bread nor money; and do not have two tunics apiece.

4 “Whatever house you enter, stay there, and from there depart. 5 And whoever will not receive you, when you go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet as a testimony against them.”

1) Republicans adjourn the House.

2) Democrats show up and unanimously "deem" that a quorum is present.

3) They pass Obama's agenda.

4) Reid exercises nuclear option and quickly passes the bill in the Senate.

5) Obama signs it, and tells Boehner "It's done. Whatcha gonna do about it, beoch?"

Hary Reid may find his “No Negotiations” rallying cry coming back to haunt him.

RE :”This would be a highly risky take-it-or-leave-it strategy. The GOP would argue that they gave Senate Democrats everything they asked for in their latest deal, but added a delay of a job killing tax that 79 Senators have already voted to repeal altogether, as well as a somewhat stripped-down Vitter Amendment. This would force members of Congress, but not staffers, to forego the president's special subsidy carve-out. The bottom-line message: “We've agreed to Harry Reid's plan, plus a few small additions that the American people support. We've bent over backwards to accommodate the other side. We've done our jobs. And we're outta here”

I like it!

Tell them:

“Take our deal or live on our income only....which we should be doing in the first place.”

If true, this is actually some good news. Time to let dingy hairy and His Petulance speak to the hand for once.

NBC's Obama sycophant Chuck Todd's take:
Chuck Todd         @chucktodd

Really surprised Dems are trying so hard to trash this House GOP plan as much publicly as they are. Again, not that diff from Sen compromise

Yea, but it's coming from the GOP so they cannot like. Harry Reid is a smarmy snake worm, so is his girl Pelosi et al

LOL Todd wants the dems to trash it behind everyone's back.

Sorry Chuck, the dems are bold these days and think they can get away with anything.

They might as well go home. How hard can it be to to sumbit a “Continuing Resolution.” First Graders could do this for a whole lot less and without a staff.

We are paying them to do nothing. As far as staffers - who writes the rules for these bozos? Staffers should not be entitle to subsidies. These morons have their staffers write their speeches, make their appointments and tell them what they need to say. They are the as responsible as the elected officials.

The spending bills are already in the Senate. Each time they refuse to negotiate, make the next bill even more conservative. Start taking stuff out of the budget instead of negotiating.

To default on the debt is going to be ugly and will ruin us - but so will Obamacare. The difference is the speed.

Yes, they should. There is no need for them to pass a spending bill just because it will pass the prez’s desk.

That would mean no immigration bill, which would be a VERY good thing.
