it’s looking like it. No guts, no balls, no nothing.
This from Fox News: Fox News is told the latest plan to emerge in the House would end the partial government shutdown by funding the government through Dec. 15. It would also raise the debt ceiling through Feb. 7 — in turn averting the looming Thursday deadline to raise the debt cap.
Unlike a prior proposal, it would not include a provision delaying the medical device tax in ObamaCare. But it would include a provision forcing Congress, the president, and many other administration officials and staff onto ObamaCare without additional subsidies.
Plus it would include a provision limiting the Treasury Department’s ability to buy more time when faced with future debt-ceiling deadlines.
Importantly, the plan would kick other budget decisions, including the debate on the medical device tax, to a conference committee.
Basically, kicking the can down the road with a promise to talk more in the future = collapse in my book! Damn!
