10:28 p.m.-- BREAKING: House Speaker John Boehner outlined the parameters of a long-term funding deal, telling his members in a closed-door meeting, "This is the best deal we could get out of them," according to a lawmaker in the room who asked not to be identified.

Not sure if people can see these tweets if you aren’t following them on twitter....
Rep. Nunes says House to vote tonight on short-term funding bill to avert government shutdown - Reuters 3 minutes ago via breakingnews.com
He should watch Kelleys Heros again.
Once again, we, the producers, bend over and take it again, and their will be no repercussions outside of some occasional howling about tossing out so and so in 2012.
WAAA?
The Rs control the money. Dammit. Why the crap did we work so hard to get a majority in the House? Damn sure not to hear “golly that’s the best we could get”. Horseshot.
Sorry tutstar not directed at you - just venting at the weakness we seem to have elected.
before anyone says “this is just a skirmish”, I disagree vehemently. This is just the precursor to what will happen when we’re not in a “skirmish”... the marxists will lie, the media will spin, and the Rs will say “well we did our best but we didn’t defund obamacare, npr, pp, but we did save 23 hours of debt” and our majority will have gotten nothing of consequence.

Carl Cameron reporting a deal is done....RIGHT!
Carl Cameron on FOX now: 39-40 billion in cuts.
Nearly, the exact words that Allen West used on Greta's show.
Deal does not equal votes. Monitor the Roll Call when the vote takes place.
Well, there’s always the elections in 2012. If we can take control of the Senate, maybe we can get something done. Until then, shove our positions down the Democrats’ throats. Why should we care about them? They screw us every chance they get. Why take abuse from dummies?
So.....babies will continue to be killed...paid for by taxpayers....????
That’s the best deal Boner could get?? spit
Fox reporting the ban on abortions in DC is IN the deal - and a seperate vote will be held to defund Planned Parenthood.
Boehner is a TRAITOR to America. He and his minions just agreed to the Federal government continuing to use our tax dollars to pay the butcher’s bill for sucking babies’ brains into a steel sink. He doesn’t deserve the title “Speaker”. He deserves the title “Obama A** Kisser.”
Congressional negotiators reach last-minute agreement to fund government for rest of fiscal year
Shut it down.
Boehner won.
Now you know how it is to be a Black Democrat. Taken for granted. The GOP will sell you down the river so fast your head will spin. Up theirs.
Riiiiiiiiiiiight. Who believes that?
When the battle came, Boehner and his minions WIMPED OUT.
Continuing resolution....
a separate vote means nothing. It’s symbolic, and Obama will veto it even if it passes the Senate.
