Now it will go back to the House and Boehner will bend over, AGAIN. The CR they sent OVER was already $24 BILLION MORE than the Ryan Budget protocols. NOW they’re gonna “negotiate” with the Senate to WASTE EVEN MORE?! WILL BOEHNER and these “Establishment Republicans” NEVER LEARN?! WILL the “Tea Party” Rep’s that were elected EVER FINALLY MEAN IT when they claim they stand against waste, FOR balancing the budget — that they will STOP IT!?! Or will the majority cave yet again??

Boehner needs to be shuttled aside and let Ryan become Speaker.

That was Monday.
The House Dems wanted more money but the House leadership cut another $100 million instead and got more conservative votes to pass it last night LOL!
(They cut it out of the program that funded Solyndra LOL again!)

So far this is outstanding, though the cuts are tiny.

Send a bill with more spending cuts and make them wish they passed this current bill.

About $50B per day would work. 

After a week, it should go to $100B per day.

Yes, then Harry could pick this current bill back up and offer it up for a vote. Until Harry allows a vote, the House should repeatedly resupply the Senate with newer more caustic versions than the previous one as you suggested. But then again, we are talking about Boehner growing a pair.
