yo, the house has passed a bill....if Harry wants a shut down, all he has to do is table the bill
The voters are at fault. Everybody knows this is how the GOP plays ball. If they don't like something, they use the threat of shutdowns as leverage. Something to keep in mind for 2012.
yo, Harry from NV is the one who has this week been threatening shutdowns...during the debt talks, the Dems avoided a shutdown because they didnt want the economy to go into recession....but now that it is pretty clear we're going to double dip, the Dems know they're screwed and will attempt a shutdown in order to blame the GOP. but the Speaker knows this
And of course, jmfcst immediately jumps in to blame the Democrats for not passing the POS Speaker Orange calls a stopgap bill.
He blames the Democrats for not wanting to send the economy to hell in a handbasket.
At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if this idiot blamed President Obama and/or Congressional Democrats for the Fukushima quake, Hurricane Irene, and other natural disasters.
Amusing how an offsetting of a minute fraction of spending will 'send the economy to hell in a handbasket'.
But as usual, you people are all talk. The Senate has not passed any bill.
