Unless you can answer that question, it appears you’re the one who’s been brainwashed.[/quote]
Already did.
The House has sent CRs forward to fund everything funded only needing an one year moratorium on the individual mandate. Not gutting of obamacare, not a defunding.
They also sent separate ones forward, such are funding the death benefit. Oops, looks like that ones blowing up on the chosen one.
Or maybe funding the NIH Child Cancer research, Nope, in the word of Harry, why would we want to vote on that…
Your position is the partisan sound bite of ‘clean CR’
meaning, lets continue to spend without any controls.
Obama and Reid have said they will not negotiate. They will not vote on anything but a blank slate of a CR.[/quote]
This is total fiction. The house didn’t send a CR funding everything the Dems wanted except for whatever. What the dems wanted was a CR at pre-sequester levels. The WH, Reid and Boehner negotiated that down to a CR funding at sequester levels. Read that again. The WH and the Dems in the senate negotiated that CR DOWN to the sequester levels. And Boehner agreed to it.
And then the House republicans wanted more. First defunding of all of the ACA. Then defunding bits and pieces of it.
And the separate one funding military benefits, that originated in the house, was passed in the Senate, and signed by the President? That would be the bill that omitted funding military death benefits. It’s a nice story that it was Obama that failed to fund the death benefits. But it never happened. That bill originated in the house. Written by house republicans. Why do Republicans hate the widows so?
Obama and Reid already negotiated, and gave up a lot. And had an agreement. And then the Republicans decided to shut the government down. After getting the concessions they wanted. It’s the Republicans that keep moving the goal post and then whine that there is no movement.
