The Repubs lack any deftness with propaganda (not necessarily a bad word btw). Paid spots on primetime TV for weeks explaining in plain easy-to-understand language what Omoeba and the marxocrats are doing would be very effective. Lather, rinse, repeat until the message sinks in.

mcconnell has already said the job of the US Senate is to fund government, cochran has said, when asked about withholding funds from obama’s illegal, illegal immigrant amnesty executive order, that he would not withold funding.

Want to bet? The media will portray the GOP as being “unreasonable”. The shutdown wouldn’t happen if they just let Obummer have his way.

IF we had honorable leaders, we would. They want amnesty, and will likely fund it.

Rats are afraid the people will realize that they don’t need government.

....” Obama will block a government budget bill if the GOP denies him the funds needed to provide amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants.”....

OK. Simple.

Just pass separate appropriation bills for each agency.

Any veto would be a high-risk step by Obama, because it would brand the Democratic Party as willing to shut down the government to aid several million illegal immigrants.

Damnit . . . I just don't get the whole dysfunctional way that the media and the left view the word

"ILLEGAL"

. . . it's like it's invisible to them.

...”Obama will shut down the government. The Repubs will get all of the blame.”....

... so what? Nothing new about that. Let them take the heat because they could have long ago prevented this and didn’t. Obama’s going to do what he wants anyway and everyone knows it....regardless what Republicans do or not.

Cut the money off! All of it!

Barack Obama. More interested in walling off DC war memorials than walling off our southern border.

Of course theY will but only the dumba$$es will believe it. A lot of people have woken from the zombie induced coma since then.

You have more faith in "we the people" than I do.

My advice is similar to what the one congress critter suggested. Fund everything long term but fund the immigration portion for only a few months. Then let’s see what happens. After a few months you can shut down the immigration part while the rest of the budget remains.

Go for it...Also, since we are doing things by fiat these days, the House should not fund ANY back pay either. NONE. (I know, wishful thinking considering the drunk is running thigs over there)
