First, that's a plan a Senator has for the House. A good plan, yes but the problem is, can the average American name the last individual separate function of government the House most recently passed? Was it the cancer-stricken kids which was more than a week ago? Was it last week's re-opening the war memorials that needed not be closed by the Obama administration in the first place? To vote to re-open the war memorials that Obama closed looks more like the voters are accepting responsability for something they really did not do in the first place.
But that last one along with funding the fumerals of our dead soldiers typically is not included as part of a government shutdown. No vote needed, just a microphone to expose Obama and the democrats in front of the American people.
So, what's the latest individual separate function of government the House most recently passed in this plan?
I can't name it. I simply don't know. Which one was passed yesterday? And today? The day before? The plan was to pass at least one everyday. But that's not where the task of the plan ends. In order for the plan to be effective, after passing each individual separate function they need to run to the microphones and tell those Americans who do not sit in front of CSPAN 24/7 and tell them "it's in Obama's and Harry Reid's lap now" and that's the part missing.
It's a good plan which I have been supporting but that plan does not work unless the American voter is informed about it after each vote. Informing the American people is as important as voting to fund that individual function.
So, again I ask, what individual part of the federal government did the House vote on today "thursday" and yesterday "wednesday" or give me one they passed this week?
And if I can't name one, it's highly doubtful the average Americasn even knows about it.
It’s been a few days, but the House is expected to pass more Friday, including border security.
