To correct the earlier post to Front Page News here, "Senate won't Pass Military Pay Protection Act." There's also

Ha! BHO2 is just the type to veto this bill. I wonder how long it would take for an over-ride vote in Congress?

If this is correct, it means the dems and traitors in the US Senate are getting the message. Next, they should send the bill abolishing the medical device tax.

The feds should not be able to close national parks...those are public lands, not federal assets.

And why shouldn't our guys in uniform get paid? Taxes are still being paid.
What does the government do with the cash? Pile it up until everything starts back up?

If BHO signs this, Boehner should put the House in Recess for a few weeks... Let’s see if anyone notices that the govt is shut down.
To: familyop
I dont think it makes it easier for the Republicans to shut down the government over us not agreeing to repeal Obamacare after we had an election last November that decided it, McCaskill said.
What the heck? Election decided Obamacare?
What universe are these critters living in?

That would be funny. It passed unanimously in both houses, though, so the military and its contractors will be paid.

Game over. The Dems have lost any leverage they might have had.
Let the next round begin!

If the financial guy on the radio last night was correct, it will take about 2 weeks before we see or feel anything.

Yep. Recess the House until the Fast & Furious scandal, IRS scandal, DOJ spying on Fox News scandal, Benghazi cover-up are all resolved and accountability realized with criminal prosecutions and ERIC HOLDER LOSING HIS JOB.
Or maybe keep the gov't shut down until every single tax-exempt status application submitted by Tea Party groups is APPROVED by the IRS.

And civil service employees. They’ll be paid, too, as per the article.

We need citizen journalists to use their webcams to record what RAT senators and administration fat cats are doing during this time. Will the White House shut down media access to the White House?
To: familyop
CNN just mentioned the possible “historic government shutdown” tonight suggesting it was novel, unique. Another channel reminds that this has happened 17 times since 1976.

Wonder if I’ll get my S.S. check tomorrow. Obama probably personally stopped mine and every S.S. recipient on this forum.
