Quote: “House Speaker John Boehner, who announced his resignation Friday, was asked about a potential shutdown. . . “

What the eff is a “shutdown?” I would just like to see ONE leader put a stop to this. The MSM, de facto, has amended the Constitution so that Congress exercising its Power of the Purse is engaging in a “shutdown.” It has to stop and stop NOW. Without the power of the purse, what power and purpose exactly does Congress have? None.

But you see how readily and easily the MSM gets the GOPe Quislings to accept their narrative. From the get go, ole John Boner and Mitch are not engaged in fighting to preserve the separation of powers but busy apologizing and sniveling for MSM approval. Please like us, please, please, please. We promise to be good little sock puppets. Government shutdown, not on our watch!!! Those are those whacko birds who actually want to pretend in that Constitution thingy drafted by racists.

Boner and McConnell and the rest of the MSM wonder why we want them gone. The wonder as to the appeal of outsiders (perceived and actual) in the 2016 campaign. Good Lord.

" Without the power of the purse, what power and purpose exactly does Congress [the House] have?"

IMO, if the Opeaser were to veto and shut down the Fedgov over defunding PP, than let him do it. Pretty sure, that most of the Country is sickened by what their tax dollars are doing to human beings is this sick market for baby parts.

Pretty sure Opeaser would own this one. But, the House RINO's just don't have the cojones for ANY fight anymore. Any wonder cry-baby RINO Boehner resigned? He was challenged by Constitutional conservatives and folded like a cheap suit.

The House should move the CR forward without PP funding. Let Obama go on record as supporting the baby parts industry. A no-win for Opeaser; a win for the House conservatives. If the House PR people make a compelling case in the media, bet Opeaser will fold.

If there's ever been a case for defunding something, it is this.
