Yesterday, the Senate voted down a House joint resolution entitled Honoring our Promise to America’s Veterans Act.
Today, Democrat Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said they will also vote down the bill to provide funding to NIH which helps children with cancer:
Reporter: But if you could help one child who has cancer, why wouldn’t you do it?
Reid: Why would we want to do that?
Please keep in mind that:
A. Democrats have flatly refused to negotiate in any way whatsoever, despite the Republican “obsession” with this bill that a majority of Americans did not want WHEN IT WAS PASSED and which a BIGGER majority of Americans do not want NOW.
B. Ever since Obama first took office in January 2009, Democrats have blocked every attempt by Republicans in Congress to fulfill the ONE JOB the Congress is legally required to do … PASS A BUDGET.
C. All this haggling over Continuing Resolutions is about keeping the money (debting) flowing at the ridiculous rate that Democrats established in 2009, a rate that is very rapidly sending the United States of America into bankruptcy.

What You Need to Know About a Government Shutdown by Congressman Jack Kingston (GA)
Why Are We Here?
In accordance with Article I, Section 9, Clause 7 of the United States Constitution, “no money shall be drawn from the Treasury but in consequence of Appropriations made by law.” The law under which government is currently funded expires at midnight on Monday, September 30.
What Has the House Done?
The House, committed to preventing a government shutdown, has passed three temporary spending measures called ‘continuing resolutions’ which would keep the government open. The first continuing resolution repealed Obamacare, while the second delayed the plan for a year and included conscience protection. The House passed a third compromise measure including a one year delay of the individual mandate, pushing the President, Vice President, and political appointees into the system and removing all taxpayer subsidies for the President, Vice President, Members, and staff.
What Has the Senate Done?
The Senate refused to work this weekend while the House remained in session and Senate Democrats have refused to work with the House to reach agreement. Instead, they have flatly rejected the House’s efforts to prevent a shutdown and refused to offer compromise.
What Has the President Done?
President Obama has refused to engage in negotiations with Congress, opting instead to golf on a taxpayer-funded course over the weekend. While his own Administration has exempted several portions of the law by executive fiat, he refuses to extend those same protections to the American people.
What Shuts Down?
“Non-excepted” parts of the government will be closed, including the Smithsonian museums, national monuments, national parks, and Capitol tours. Certain services such as the expedition of a passport would also cease.
What Stays Open?
Sectors of government deemed “excepted” will continue to conduct business. Therefore, programs written into permanent law (Social Security), functions pertaining to national security or public safety continue to operate.
Does Congress Get Paid?
Members of Congress are paid under constitutional law, and “excepted” congressional staff members receive payment in the form of back pay once the shutdown is over. Other essential federal employees continue to work and have historically received payment after a delay, although it is not guaranteed.
What About Our Troops?
On Saturday, the House unanimously approved a bill proposed by Congressman Kingston along with Reps. Mike Coffman (R-CO), Louie Gohmert (R-TX), and Tom Latham (R-IA) to ensure the payment of our troops and supporting civilian employees or contractors in the event of a government shutdown. On Monday, the Senate followed up with passage by unanimous consent.

The fund-raising arm of the Dem Party — the Democratic National Committee or DNC – still owes $18.1 million to various vendors and suppliers for the 2012 election season.
Its GOP counterpart – the Republican National Committee or RNC – has $12.5 million saved up for the next campaign cycle.

Pfeiffer also said the White House will not negotiate “with people with a bomb strapped to their chest”, called Republican add-ons to a debt-limit bill as “ransom demands,” and declared “it’s not a negotiation if I show up at your house and say give me everything inside or I’m going to burn it down.”
Seriously. He actually said all that. Because like wow man … anyone who disagrees with Obama politically is EXACTLY like a suicide bomber who shows up at your house with a flame thrower!

Obama says Republicans are forcing an “all or nothing” vote on Obamacare and the federal debt.
That’s a blatant lie.
- The Republican-majority House voted for “all but Obamacare.”
- The Democrat-majority Senate voted for “all or nothing.”

Does it seem to anyone else that the more the dems get,the angrier and greedier they get?
They had it all after the 2008 elections and still behaved like the ill-mannered louts they are.The GOP became the majority in the house in 2010 and instantly became the scapegoat for every government failure.With the shutdown looming tomorrow the libs show no indication of negotiating with republicans whatever.They don’t have to.Just shut things down,trot a few public union ‘victims’ in front of the cameras and let their propaganda machine batter the republicans mercilessly until they submit.I put the over/under on capitulation at 3 1/2 days.
There was so much venom spewed over the weekend,I had to put it in a separate post.Were I as talented as Chrissy,I could just post pictures alongside the bile that they disseminated.I’m not,so I have to C&P links and some youtubes for you to look over.If you don’t want to bother I can’t blame you.I just did it to lower my blood pressure.Anyway,it’s done.

Both Senator McCain and SecState Kerry cited this “expert” woman’s opinions during their congressional testimony justifying Obama’s plan to bomb Syria.
SEN. MCCAIN: Secretary Kerry — John, over the weekend, the Wall Street Journal ran an important op-ed by Dr. Elizabeth O’Bagy — I hope you saw it — a Syria analyst at the Institute for the Study of War, spent a great deal of time inside Syria, including just this month. And I want to read her assessment of the situation on the ground. And I quote the story. … John, do you agree with Dr. O’Bagy’s assessment of the opposition?
SEC. KERRY: I agree with most of that.
Even more disturbing than her fake resumé is the previously undisclosed fact that O’Bagy has ties to a rebel advocacy group that is LOBBYING the U.S. government to intervene in Syria on the rebel’s behalf.
So, basically, she’s a total fraud. Oh wait … so are McCain and Kerry. Oh well. Lying and hypocrisy are just SOP when it comes to Obama Democrats. What’s that you say? McCain’s a Republican? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. If you believe that, I’ve got a bridge I’d like to sell you.
