Obama is the matador and a government shutdown is his cape. Now why should the Republicans play the part of the bull? We all know how the bull fight ends, don’t we?
Yes, we do. But Congress can take its time, keep its eyes open, and just push rather than charging. Then when Obama tries the footwork, watch the feet rather than the cape.

Agreed. But that strategy relies upon the matador making a mistake. Not a bad strategy, especially with Obama. But that’s not the strategy advocated by the majority on this board that want to shut the government down this week and keep it shut until Obama resigns and his successor agrees to repeal Obamacare and the amnesty.
