Please refer to the opposition party by the correct term "Democrat" (not Democratic, which they most certainly are not). Thanks!

This scenario is being used way too often. Every year. It sounds like if we just shut it down for a few weeks we could probably pay a good part of our national debt.

"Shift money to the military and away from non defense spending." So we have a budget and government funding problem that continues on and on, but we will fund the murder factory come hell or highwater. I hope those people who are suffering through natural disasters around the country will have strong bootstraps so they can pull themselves out of it.

Voice of America
The U.S. Senate passed a stopgap spending bill Friday evening, averting a partial government shutdown and overcoming Democratic opposition to the measure.
The bill passed 54-46 after clearing a more difficult procedural hurdle to stop debate on the measure, which required at least 60 votes.
The Republican-controlled House of Representatives passed the bill earlier this week to meet a March 14 deadline to keep the government running.
Senate Democrats had fractured over whether to support the short-term continuing resolution (CR) that would fund the government for the next six months, reduce total government spending by about $7 billion from last year's levels and shift money to the military and away from non-defense spending.
