Harry Reid Refuses to Compromise

Posted on Comments

Explain to me again how this is the GOP’s fault?

Congress took another step toward a government shutdown Monday as the Senate voted 54-46 to strip language from a House funding bill that delayed ObamaCare by a year. . . .
Democrats also eliminated language allowing employers to opt out of providing insurance coverage of contraception if doing so violates their moral or religious principles.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) needed only a simple majority vote to cut the House language delaying ObamaCare and repealing the medical device tax . . .
Monday’s vote was strictly on party lines.

We shall see whether House Republicans knuckle under. There are reports that they’re getting wobbly on Harry Reid’s shutdown threat.

  2. Obama’s “don’t call my bluff” is taking over the entire Democrat party. If Obama and Reid refuse the negotiate, that it is their way or the highway, then any shutdown is on them, not Boehner and the Republicans. But the Republicans need to be doing a full-court press and the requisite television and internet (and print?) ads to pierce through the fog of the Pravda media to get the point across. Relying on even friendly media is not going to cut it.

  4. Hit the phones, hit the emails, hit the fax machines. Let your “representatives” know they’re voting as if their jobs depended on it.

  5. Obama and Reid would rather shut down the government than delay Obamacare for a year for you and I, when they’ve already delayed it for a year for businesses.

    And yet they push the Big Lie that Republicans are the ‘party of no’ in the pocket of Big Business.

  6. You little rat…..You got sent to Washington to represent the people, you are NOT doing that, you political little hack……Methinks retirement looms in your future……You’re done screwing us….

  7. Funding for Obama care should be handled as part of a proper budget not a continuing resolution. The administration’s lack of planning should not constitute an emergency for the rest of the nation.
