Oh please, Mr. Pfeiffer, don't throw us into that briar patch.

Dan Pfeiffer threatens total shutdown of Homeland Security.

They must have discovered a planet where this reasoning makes sense. This is Dan Pfeiffer describing how Obama can deal with Congress. This is reported on Conservative Tribune who is relaying reporting on The Daily Caller. The problem: Obama wants funding for his executive amnesty. Republicans are pretending to fight by imposing cuts to stop or slow Obama's plans to allow illegal immigrants into the country.

Dan Pfeiffer speaking:

1) Obama will block all funding for the entire department and would veto any spending bill if the Republicans try to impose cuts.

2) Are Republicans going to shut down the Department of Homeland Security to undo our executive action? I don't think they are going to do that.

3) It's possible that insanity will prevail upon the House Republican caucus as it did last October during the 2013 shutdown.

Tell us more of your homeworld, Usul. On our world that is no threat, in fact, a welcome development. On my world the shutdown is a ringing Republican success putting the check on Democrat crazy and the spotlight on Presidental menace for all to see ultimately doing terrible and lasting damage to Democrat party, trust in government generally and putting Republicans on notice to shape up, the shakedown is started. No matter how many time you repeat the opposite, slapping stucco on your rickety shed, results show you're wrong. #empty threat

"I'm getting this monkey off your back and you're not even going to clap?"

John Boehner backing away from budget fight. His thinking as stated is now the mess of Obamacare rollout can command full attention without distracting unproductive bruising fights.

And apparently tea party types are monkeys.

Monkeys on his back.

The trillions off dollars of unchecked public debt, now intergenerational, is the monkey that tea party types are concerned with, that and constitutional fidelity, so budgetary integrity and constitutional fidelity and intergenerational morality are monkeys on Republicans backs that is appeased by simply caving to Democrats.

The man has got no fight in him. And neither do the rest. Whereas their opponents fight fight fight no matter how far off the ultimate goal no matter how many other fights are already in progress. His opponents are fighting on all fronts at once, opening new fronts as Boehner caves on this one. He sees himself as winner for Republican business as usual while the rest of us see loser for Republicanism in general. Goodbye Republicans Party, I cannot add it's been nice knowing you.
