Cantor: House GOP forging ahead with piecemeal bills (Reid and Obama won't fund the Government)

House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) vowed to bring forward more piecemeal spending bills Thursday, as he expressed confidence President Obama would eventually be forced to negotiate.

In a memo sent to House Republicans, Cantor called the Democratic position "untenable" and "unsustainable," adding that a steady diet of narrow funding bills would force Democrats to deal.

"I am confident that if we keep advancing common-sense solutions to the problems created by the shutdown that Senate Democrats and President Obama will eventually agree to meaningful discussions that would allow us to ultimately resolve this impasse," he wrote.

"The American people ... expect us to work together and they will not countenance one party simply refusing to negotiate."

Cantor said Republicans are in an "unprecedented place," and noted that during the last shutdown, President Clinton was "actively engaged" in searching for a solution.

NOW is the time to pass a budget with common sense as well. One that reduces spending. Show America that the republicant’s sometimes can.

I think the definition of clean is a funding bill that does NOT have Obamacare in it.

yes, the man (and I use that term lightly) has an evil core. He’s dangerous and deadly.
