Cantor Debuts Bill That Would Make GOP Budget Law Of Land Should Shutdown Become Imminent
WASHINGTON -- House Republicans will introduce legislation, likely by the end of this week, that would make it so that if Congress is unable to come to an agreement over an operating budget, the GOP’s version would simply become law of the land.
The bill, titled “The Government Shutdown Prevention Act,” is designed for the purposed described in its title. In terms of partisan equity, it’s lacking.
Announced by House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) on Wednesday, the legislation would make it so that “if the Senate fails to pass a measure before April 6, 2011 providing for the appropriations of the departments and agencies of the Government for the remainder of fiscal year 2011, H.R. 1 (as passed by the House on February 19, 2011) becomes law.” The bill also stipulates that Members of Congress and the President will not get salary payments in the event of a shutdown or the U.S. debt limit being reached.
The idea that Congress would use the GOP’s preferred spending levels as a de-facto fall-back should a shutdown become imminent (the government runs out of funds on April 8) ignores the fact that Senate Democrats have rejected passing HR1 since the onset of the government funding debate. Why not, as Democrats are bound to do, insist that the current spending levels be the law of the land should no agreement between the parties be reached?
This is funny. GOP House Majority Leader Eric Cantor seems to have forgotten (or maybe he never knew) how bills become law. First comes the House, then comes the Senate, then they negotiate. If they reach an agreement, the bill goes to the President to sign. Cantor thinks the House GOP can bypass the Senate and the President.

I'd venture that Eric Cantor has forgotten more about government in the last 20 minutes than you've learned in the last 20 years.

He's such an idiot, he always has been. I don't even know what he or Boehner are doing there. How embarrassing.
Democrat Healthcare Bills become law when you bribe congressmen in backroom deals against the will of the people with borrowed Tax payer monies from your grandkid's future even though the bill is unconsitutional, stealing everyday freedoms from mainstreet Americans, without Democrats actually reading the bill and forcing the vote at 2:00AM in the morning, hiding from the media and the voters before they can prove the bill is a fraud, a lie and the greatest travesty in the last 70 years in American history.
Is that how?

You mean the health care bill that passed both the House and the Senate and was signed by President Obama? The way bills actually become law?
Seeing as how Cantor wants to bypass the Constitution, will Obama now tap him for a cabinet post?Democrat Healthcare Bills become law when you bribe congressmen in backroom deals against the will of the people with borrowed Tax payer monies from your grandkid's future even though the bill is unconsitutional, stealing everyday freedoms from mainstreet Americans, without Democrats actually reading the bill and forcing the vote at 2:00AM in the morning, hiding from the media and the voters before they can prove the bill is a fraud, a lie and the greatest travesty in the last 70 years in American history.

Wow! I bet he as least read it though. You mention one way that Bills become Law, just curious as to when you think the EPA or the IRS gave a Rat's Ass about the Constitution or Due Process. Bitching over the Deck Chair layout of the Titanic, suits you.

But somehow he can't remember how bills become law (something I learned as a child). And you're still gladly sucking his dick. "Don't listen to them, Mr. Cantor, you're the best *gurgle gurgle*"

Another thing Dems own: the knowledge that bills don't become law when only one house of Congress passes one.
Cantor's Act is entirely Constitutional, does not alter the process, and is obviously completely over your head.
You seem to believe that they will be voting on the GOP Budget, which they will not. You need to re-read your own quote, VERY SLOWLY.
Cantor's Act will have to pass the House, then the Senate, then go back to Joint Session, then to the President.
But other than that, cool story bro!
