Lets just hope the short attention span America can remember what the Republicans are doing right now come election time.
But if they do, they might remember Obama's Benghazi, NSA, and IRS scandals and how the Democrats defended them all. So you might want to wish for a short attention span after all.
Ah yes, thanks for that. I couldn't remember the date off hand. The month long clean bill is what Boner refuses to vote on which would end the shutdown today and Congress would have more time to work out their issues. What more do you want before Boner needs to be forced to vote on a clean bill?
I'm not insisting on a clean bill, YOU ARE.. Why are you crying for a clean bill?
The irony of you telling me to use google, while you dont seem to be able to.. 1 more thing you cant do...

The fact that this shut down does not impact most citizen's lives as the Democrats declared would happen, has only made people realize that the gov't is too big. Now if the truckers choose to strike or close shop in opposition to Obama - this will make a much bigger impact on people's lives especially after a couple of days when gas and food deliveries stop.
Many businesses have their own fleet of delivery vehicles, ect.. Walmart - but they depend on the truckers to get the food, clothes and whatever else they sell to the distribution centers.
They have figured out how to pay for it -> raise taxes. People will wake up on day to find out that Obama now considers them rich and he will demonize them on the campaign trail to try to make them pay higher taxes.

President Obama dared Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) on Monday to prove there aren’t enough votes in the House to pass a “clean” bill to reopen the government.
I see no common sense there. We have been told over and over that people are going to turn on the GOP over this. So again, what do they have to gain but shutting down the government.

Obama doesnt run Congress.. Its meaningless what he wants..
poor baby.. he still hasnt figured out how our government works..
