Why else would they vote against a budget bill that gives them everything they want? Funding for the Flint water cleanup is already in another bill, so this excuse is nothing more than a political stunt designed to blame Republicans for another government shutdown. The MSM, of course, will enthusiastically cooperate in this deception.

Under Democratic Presidents, these shutdowns are applied in ways to maximize inconvenience to the public, even where funding has not been affected. In addition, federal employees are portray as innocent victims, even though they don't lose a penny and are effectively rewarded with free paid vacation days.

Isn't interesting that these same Democrats are loath to create government shutdowns under Republican Presidents? That is because a lack of funding would be used to shut down unnecessary programs that the public would hardly notice. Wouldn't that be a refreshing change?
 
I agree

The Democrats are being no better than Republicans when they shut down government in an attempt to defund Obamacare

Continuing Resolutions are not the place to put your pet project
