What part of “The Constitution is the law of the land” do you not understand. All the Tea Party wants is to go back to following the law. Get away from a Pres that makes up the law as he goes along.

wmconelly why did hairy reid and bho decided it was better to shut down the nation than to delay obumacare 1 yr and put congress under it

“If they choose not to fund something, then it doesn’t get done.”

By your logic, No Child Left Behind (for just one example) won’t get done. I was given to believe that it was an “unfunded mandate”: that is, it’s the law, it should be funded, but it’s not. However, it’s the law, and states are required to conform, funded or not.

If it were true that the House of Representatives could make laws magically vanish just by deciding which laws to fund and which not to, this country would be a wildly different place.

If we adopt that policy, I suppose the only things funded would be oil companies, Wall Street, Blackwater, Massie Mining, agribusiness, and the Pentagon. Everything else would be de-funded, and the laws underpinning them would just go moot.

I hope you don’t really believe that would be a better idea.

He not only feeds off of IT! he slings IT like no one else can!

to 1opinion so you think hairy reid and nho are republicans?

to drc claiming you do not know about your own orders is not micro managing

Reagan didn’t micro-manage Iran-Contra, after all, in fact he didn’t know anything about it, including the orders he signed.

dear ruff 1opion is mistaken in his belief that hairy reid is a republican // bho gives orders and when thinks happen that might make him look bad he becomes sargent shultz // " i know nothing nooothing"
