I like it a LOT. Start with defense. Eventually they might get around to funding the EPA and the IRS. Eventually.

Great idea! I wonder what Cruz and Lee think of this idea?

How about this? 24 hr CR plus full budget. Next day - 24hr CR plus full budget only slightly smaller. Lather, rinse, repeat. Make them show up every day...thru Christmas and beyond. Life needs to be made personally miserable for the Senate Dems.

I like the idea, but doubt the RINOS will do it.
They don't have to worry, they are exempt from Obamacare.
They've got their fat paychecks and perks, to hell with the problems of the peasants they are supposed to be representing.

Some guy on Hannity called in this afternoon saying this. It is so simple it is brilliant and since it is so simple and there is something probably wrong with it. However, I see nothing in the Constitution that says it can’t be done unless some meat heads have created some stupid procedural rule preventing it.
Send every thing across that needs to be done and nothing that doesn’t need to be done. Full support and approval for essential functions... Constitutionally permitted functions of the Federal Government and nothing else.

They won’t do it. After the election in 2010, they conceded defeat to Obama, and now cannot admit that their opposition to it since that time is strictly to con the base. They hate Cruz and Lee because they are forcing them to admit the truth. What they are doing now is all smoke and mirrors.

It’s good old American common sense like this that caused me to support Pat in ‘92 and and ‘96 and to head his campaign in my county.
Hope the pubbies in the House pick up on it.

Too bad the elite Republican establishment is more worried about maintains the status quo and their cushy jobs, benefits and perks, rather than their supposed commitment to smaller government and reduced taxes. We will see the RINOs fall over themselves to vote for cloture. REMEMBER THIS you scum sucking Republican trolls and tell your bosses that the nearly 60% of those of us who oppose ObamaCare consider a vote for cloture, a vote for funding and supporting Obamacare. There was 100% opposition to the bill Christmas 2009 by the Republicans, we must run conservatives against those who vote for cloture.

A lot of us have had the very same idea - - surely it has occurred to conservatives in Congress.

I think a number of us on FR, for a while now, have been advocating this idea.
