““I understand … under the Constitution … the House of Representatives must originate all revenue items,” said Reid. “Therefore, the path to avert default now runs first to the House of Representatives. “

The house should just submit the same bill over and over again.

What a crock. It’s too hot in DC, that’s why he canceled the session. Wimp.

“I understand … under the Constitution … the House of Representatives must originate all revenue items,” said Reid. “Therefore, the path to avert default now runs first to the House of Representatives.

“That's what the Constitution demands,” he added. “We in the Senate must wait for them.”

Except for..., Obamacare.

Care to revisit the constitutionality of that monstrosity, Harry?

“We in the Senate must wait for them.”

How does that POS get away with it?

They sit on their leftist a$$'s and make for the house to do all the footwork, shut down their efforts and then blame the house for the senate sitting on their a$$'s still?

If we only had Sharron Angle.

He’s got to go spend some of that money he stole from the taxpayers.

Ok US House, pass the same bill with double the spending cuts and send it back to this POS in the US Senate.

IF the bill has to start in the House then Harry should of allowed a vote on CCB instead of using gimmickry to table it.

IF the USA goes into default and has a debt crisis, it is the fault of Harry Reid and the Democrats and no one else

Good. I hope they take a vacation of the next month so the debt ceiling won’t be raised.

The real News here is that Harry Reid actually read and understood the US Constitution!

Translation: I want the House to send me HIGHER TAXES. (/whine)

“Earlier in the week, however, Reid scheduled work on Saturday and Sunday and harshly criticized Republican leadership in the House for planning a recess. “

Reid is real piece of work.

He COULD have let them debate, amend and fix the CCB bill to get to a compromise.

He COULD have put a budget together and passed it. Instead, he does NOTHING constructive and takes the weekend off.

Here is what the House members are saying ....

“We have voted to raise the debt ceiling against our strongest wishes. ... We have fulfilled our obligations,” Rep. Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.) said. “The attention is not on the House anymore, go stick your microphones in the faces of the Senate and the president. The House is done!”

.... STANDOFF!
