    At least Dan Quayle knows how to pronounce "navy corpsman" unlike Obama who kept referring to a navy corpsman as a "navy corpse man."

    It appears some Dems aren’t willing to go down with the ship

    The DP House owns the shutdown. The House alone holds "the power of the purse".

    I am with you cd8ed, the DP House should refuse Trump's demand for funding for The Wall.
    I urge Pelosi/Schumer and the DP to stand strong and keep the government shutdown until 11/20.
    Voters will love them for it. :)

    The government is currently funded. Only the president can shut down the government

    LOL! The DP is proving it holds the power of the purse ever day now. Most people notice things like that.

    And I really admire their rare display of political courage. Don't you? ;-)

    The separation of powers is quite clear. There is only one person on earth who can reopen the government .

    One.

    Guess who? Lol

    That has nothing to do with reopening the government. Congress could agree to grant one trillion dollars to the wall and trump could refuse to reopen government

    But that awful Trump is only demanding $5.7B. And Trump can't make our brace DP pols fund a penny for The Wall.
    Isn't the House of Representative's "Power of the Purse" great! :)

    Your asking ME questions? How many times have I asked you this? So, do you deny that the House holds the power of the purse? I even added "pretty please". It must be a really hard question for you to answer. ;-)

    Asked and answered. Here it is again: Trump does not hold the power of the purse. The House does.

    Now - your turn. So, do you deny that the House holds the power of the purse?

    You must be young.

    Before CPUSA broke up into many fractions and adopted cultural-marxism, communist called for the violent overthrow if the U.S. government.

    I remember if you were a commie you couldn't even be drafted into the U.S. Army.
