Any veto would be a high-risk step by Obama, because it would brand the Democratic Party as willing to shut down the government to aid several million illegal immigrants.

Yeah, I'm sure the drivebys will report it that way. </sarc>

[Chickensoup]

Wonderful idea!

[ctdonath2]

"Your proposal is acceptable."

[Bubba_Leroy]

Obama will shut down the government. The Repubs will get all of the blame.

DO IT! Not only is a shut down a good thing for everyone, the polls show the majority of Americans are against oboma trying to become our new king by not enforcing our laws! Add putting illegals first on top of that- we on the right start to look really, really good.

Yeah. Go for it. Shut that monstrosity down.

[NorthMountain]

Bring it, Barry, ya miserable poofter.

No risk to the D's. They were 100% responsible for the last shut down, but did they get the blame? Nope. And they won't this time, either. And the GOP is too weak and too buys playing defense to get the real message out there. We know the GOP was NOT responsible for the last shut down, and we know they won't be responsible for this one if, in fact, it gets to that point. But midstream America doesn't know, won't be told by the midstream press and wouldn't listen even if they were.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Well, that settles it. The GOPe is gonna cave. Again.

[SpaceBar]

The Repubs lack any deftness with propaganda (not necessarily a bad word btw). Paid spots on primetime TV for weeks explaining in plain easy-to-understand language what Omoeba and the marxocrats are doing would be very effective. Lather, rinse, repeat until the message sinks in.

mcconnell has already said the job of the US Senate is to fund government, cochran has said, when asked about withholding funds from obama’s illegal, illegal immigrant amnesty executive order, that he would not withold funding.

[oblomov]

Just pass separate appropriation bills for each agency.

Damnit . . . I just don't get the whole dysfunctional way that the media and the left view the word

"ILLEGAL"

. . . it's like it's invisible to them.

[VTenigma]

Shut’er down, works for me.

[mom.mom]

Yes! He’s all in. Take him out!

[dirtboy]

Barack Obama. More interested in walling off DC war memorials than walling off our southern border.

[GSWarrior]

Finally, an Obama action that I can rally behind!

[hawkaw]

My advice is similar to what the one congress critter suggested. Fund everything long term but fund the immigration portion for only a few months. Then let’s see what happens. After a few months you can shut down the immigration part while the rest of the budget remains.

[Ghost of SVR4]

Go for it...Also, since we are doing things by fiat these days, the House should not fund ANY back pay either. NONE. (I know, wishful thinking considering the drunk is running thigs over there)

[smoothsailing]

Shut it down, plow it under, spread lye over it, never let it rise again.

[skinkinthegrass]

please..DO! IT!

[ßuddaßudd]

please do
