    It depends on which Republicans you are talking about. The Republicans who want to vote on the clear CR in the House do. The Suicide Squad do not, or at least they do not care, because they consider all these government employees somehow different from all other Americans, and unworthy of notice.

    They continue to try to blame the Democrats, when the truth is that by refusing to let the Senate bill come to a vote in the House, they are the ones obstructing things.

    That is why the gop house has passed compromise after compromise to try to get people the funds that they need. It's the Dem's who have refused to compromise. They and the president are actually gloating about their no negotiation stance. Funny, this time they aren't even trying to hide it and you guys are still blaming the republicans for not compromising.

    yes.

    Do you understand our country is broke. That the middle class is already burdened enough. That we no longer can afford to bail out rich people and poor people. That it is time for both of them to start taking care of themselves. That if you want affordable ins. you need to open up the market place not ask Gov-ment to take it over. Do you understand Gov-ment employees do not make maney they consume money. They do not pay taxes they give back taxes. I feel so bad that the politicians have to push the elevator button themselves rather than a bell hop do it for them. Do you understand economics. Do you understand freedom.

    I bet not.

    Did you know that Republicans have offered short-term funding bills to keep critical programs funded, but the Democrats have rejected them in order to gain politically?

    Of course. That's why Obama's actions come across as so evil. He would rather have those people starve than reign in his ego long enough to negotiate.

    If these "real people" of whom you speak are World War II vets, you need to know that they stood up to obongo, and he caved like a typical bully.

    They are all government workers. Their salary is paid by taxpayers. I'd suggest they find other jobs

    Exactly, why Obama is being mean to the government union thugs just to get money for his "navigators" will be hard to explain
