US government shutdown - your thoughts?

[uls]

Yes I hate it but to restore peace with the partner I won't compromise on the matter even if I hate the idea. If he/she wants to to change the billboard altogether, I would compromise to keep the sa appearance but electronic. Maybe test it first or do a dry run and see what makes it good and what makes it bad.

you're still confused

the Republicans DO NOT want to test run Obamacare

they want it STOPPED (that's why they want to cut funding to it)

after their attempt to defund Obamacare failed they want it postponed for 1 year

why do you keep saying the Republicans want to test Obamacare?

saan mo nakuha yan?

btw you didnt answer kung tama ba yung i-shutdown mo ang resto dahil ayaw mo lang ang pag gamit ng electronic billboard

anyway,,,

the latest is Republicans came out with a proposal that will raise the debt ceiling for 6 weeks

it's unlikely to pass

Democrats arent gonna vote for it coz it doesnt end the govt shutdown

No I won't shut it down kaya gusto ko compromise but if the other side will just say "its my way or the highway". That's another thing.

On the defunding, I can't remember what show was it pero republicans want a waiver for people that don't need Obamacare. They have let go on the defunding and started talks on waivers as a compromise.

Democrats did gave waiver to big companies but would not extend the courtesy to citizens. Why?

during the budget talk there was no Obamacare waiver thing being discussed

there's defunding Obamacare attached to the budget which was rejected

then there's postponing Obamacare for 1 year attached to the budget which was also rejected

I'll try to find the video on it... There was a waiver proposed by republicans then shut down by Democrats without talking about it.

...shut down by Democrats without talking about it.

again, it is not the Democrats who shut down the US govt

it's the Republicans

Republicans won't come up with a clean budget bill

all they had to do was pass a clean budget bill and the US govt continues operating

that's all they had to do

but noooo..... Republicans used the budget talk to defund, delay, repeal Obamacare

hindi dapat ni-ne-negoitiate ang Obamacare during the budget talk

hindi dapat

paikot ikot lang tayo

desperado mga Republican

the only way they could corner the Democrats on Obamacare is to use the budget talk

now they're using the debt ceiling to corner Democrats

Ang kulit eh. Di maintindihan ang ibig sabihin ng "proper venue."

Let's go over the electronic billboard again. Ganito compromise ng Republicans:

1. Remove billboard or we don't sign the budget. (remember: the Billboard fund does NOT come from the marketing budget)

2. Don't use the billboard or we don't sign the budget.

Compromise? Sige.

3. Don't make the employees work on the billboard, or we don't sign the budget.

Gets? None of the crap funded by the Federal budget has anything to do with Obamacare. The Republican Tea Party is okay with shutting down the government and risking a global financial crisis because they think the public is stupid enough to blame the President.

All they're doing, really, is ensuring there will not be a Republican in the White House next election, and that they will never, ever have the majority in Congress or the Senate again.

NBC/WSJ poll: Shutdown debate damages GOP - First Read

The Republican Party has been badly damaged in the ongoing government shutdown and debt limit standoff, with a new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll finding that a majority of Americans blame the GOP for the shutdown, and with the party’s popularity declining to its lowest level.

By a 22-point margin (53 percent to 31 percent), the public blames the Republican Party more for the shutdown than President Barack Obama – a wider margin of blame for the GOP than the party received during the poll during the last shutdown in 1995-96.

Just 24 percent of respondents have a favorable opinion about the GOP, and only 21 percent have a favorable view of the Tea Party, which are both at all-time lows in the history of poll.
