The Dems will shut down the government to keep Obamacare (and no one will say that in the media).
We should have made them do it after the 2010 elections.
It would have been clear that was what was happening- despite the media.
Exactly. Either with or without a shut down we are so screwed because Boehner is FUBARing this beyond belief by refusing to fight.
Right now I think this is about more than obamacare. The beltway GOP leadership is trying to blame everything on conservatives while conservatives are using this battle to show that Boehner/Cantor/McCarthy are totally unfit to lead an opposition party. What a cluster.
According to this: http://blogs.rollcall.com/218/cr-fight-about-leverage-for-round-2/
Boehner is being nice to the Dems to get them to agree to a CR at the sequester level.
Which they have to anyway!
Maybe it is all just selfish squabbling- without effective leadership that is the level most groups devolve to.
Not just a cluster, it’s the whole Charlie Foxtrot.
