“Doing something” would have been defunding amnesty

As I said in my post, how do you defund not enforcing the law? Plus, any funding cuts will result in fewer agents on the border with Obama blaming the Republicans for that.

The cost of Obamacare is spread across multiple federal agencies. Congress can reduce overall federal spending and say the cuts apply to Obamacare, but Obama will simply apply the cuts elsewhere ... and blame the Republicans. Remember ...?

"It’s the eighth day that the U.S. government has been shut down because of Tea Party Republicans’ insistence on defunding Obamacare at any cost. This is having enormous economic impacts on small businesses across the country, including those located near the 401 national parks and 561 national wildlife refuge that are currently closed to campers, hikers, hunters, and anglers."

Quoting Think Progress here? Are you a Democrat? You sure seem happy with the Obama-Boehner amnesty quid pro quo.
