"The speaker is the one who came up with the number," Reid insisted. "We didn't invent it."
More finger-pointing continues at our nation's capitol where Republican Speaker of the House John  Boehner and Democrat Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid are still trying to compromise on the federal budget. The federal government will be shut down by tonight if not reached an impasse. Everything is set, accept the deal on abortion, says both parties. The republicans want to strip federal funding from the free clinics and planned parenthood programs which is totally understandable because it forces people to be more mature and responsible, while the democrats are against this. If you ask me, this should be the least of our worries.
"For us to go backwards because Washington couldn't get its act together is unacceptable," Obama said. At least he realizes this.
