Shutdown could be solved immediately if the Senate votes on the bills that the House has already passed. If they don't like them let them vote them down, forcing the House to redo them. Why not let the Senate vote?
I may be over shooting this one. I would like to know if Obamacare passes, and our most beloved government experiences another neglectful shut down, how will those services be administered? Will the dying child with leukemia see a sign that says "sorry we're closed"? If people in Washington are unable to govern our government are they qualified to superintend human lives?
