Reid said the plan, which was discussed at a House Republican meeting on Tuesdays morning, was “an extreme piece of legislation and it’s nothing more than a blatant attack on bipartisanship.”
Earlier, House Speaker John Boehner said no decisions had been made to bring the House plan up for a vote. The proposal would track several key parameters of an emerging deal that Reid is negotiating with Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell but it would require some concessions on “Obamacare” health reforms and add some other restrictions on funding and borrowing.
When will it become clear and obvious to the Obamabots out there that the Republicans have submitted many proposals over the last many?weeks and months BUT THE DEMOCREEPS LIKE OBAMA AND REID HAVE NO INTENTION WHATSOEVER TO GIVE AN INCH? ????
Obama Kool Aid drinkers need to wake up.
REID take a long walk in the nevada desert
i don’t want bipartisanship. I want the government to stop spending my money any more than absolutely necessary. Payments to welfare bums, and payments to support Obamacare subsidies so that employers don’t have to pay for health insurance for their employees are certainly not absolutely necessary.
