All very well, but for the next two years, the only way the Republicans can get ANYTHING is to put it on a budget bill or some other bill that HAS TO BE PASSED.

I think this is how it works in 2012:

A. The budget for 2012 originates in the House and all appropriation bills originate in House.

B. If there is no funding in those appropriation bills for Planned Parenthood the bills sent to the Senate will be amended to add it in and then the House will asked to vote it in. It will be a replay of yesterday and I expect it to be repeated over and over as the 2012 budget is argued over.

Get out the popcorn. The show is just starting.

Yes the real battle will be the 2012 budget.

This was to try and get rid of the 2011 CR “Continuing Resolution” because NO budget was Passed by the previous congress.

The part that worries me is Rep, Conservative Indies, and Tea party members are bitching and moaning about the size of the deficit reduction. Not enough or best we can do.

News Flash the DEMS and President still not have signed anything for the remaining part of the 2011 budget year.

A Govt shutdown is still possible.

It.s not bleak . the fight does go on. Without the senate we can't pas much . In the defense of those who are extremely disappointed , we have to admit the Speaker was intimidate by reid and the Hags bleating on about killing women and such. The Pubs will never win the big fights with these pathetic spokespeople and the above the common fray bushie doosh bags that they now front with . The gezzers are weaker than that rodent reid , and that's saying something.
