    You keep leaving out the part about not funding the ACA this year.

    I have never been wrong. Your own link proves you lied.
    Delaying the ACA is not negotiable.

    It doesn't say anything about not funding the ACA ... Because the ACA is funded without the Continuing Resolution ... It is funded with or without HJ Res. 59 ... You were wrong, and continue to be wrong.
    Delaying the Individual Mandate doesn't have a damn thing to do with funding the ACA ... I don't know what you don't understand about that.

    I never argued that you don't like the way HJ Res 59 delayed the ACA ... Just that if you want the government completely funded, then you cannot say that the House didn't produce legislation that would fund the government.
    If you don't like the way the legislation looks ... Well, tough sh** ... It was passed with the majority of the House, the same as the ACA was passed with the majority of the house ... No difference.

    Now if you want to make a point about the ACA not being negotiable ... Then that is a matter to take up with the Senate and President Obama, because they are the ones not negotiating.

    What part is wrong ... I keep asking and you won't answer?
    If you want to keep insisting that it says something it doesn't ... Or that HJ Res. 59 didn't fully fund the government ... Well, that's pathetic.

    Edit:
    Here is the link again ... Feel free to point out what I got wrong.

    No one claimed it did not delay ACA. Let go of the strawman if you can.

    Nope, his assertion was regarding the funding, not a delay in the implementation. You moved the goal post and thought no one would notice. Watch the silly man dance.

    I never ever once said that it didn't have a delay for the Individual Mandate required by the ACA.
    It also gets rid of government subsidies for Congress members and appointees.

    But ... That has noting to do with fact it fully funds the government.

    The Individual Mandate fines people for not buying insurance ... And isn't part of the funding for the ACA or Government Appropriations legislation.
    The ACA is already funded with or without the Continuing Resolution.

    So what did I get wrong ... You still haven't pointed anything out that was wrong ... And never will.
    Now if you want to keep saying something that isn't true ... Then post a link that supports your point ... Or shut up.

    I am not embarrassed at all ... You haven't proven your point or that I lied ... And never will.
    I see you cannot support your point ... But you couldn't in your first post ... And I will continue to correct you.

    Keep digging ... Calling me a liar is untrue and doesn't support your point ... You were wrong and haven't proven otherwise.

    Once Rahl gets a hold of a strawman, he never lets go of it.

    HJ Res. 59 does fund all government programs and services, at post sequestration rates to the tune of $986 billion until December 15, 2013 when appropriations legislation for 2014 is due.

    So Again ... Where is the lie?

    Yeah yeah … Not too sure that Rahl understands where and how he/she has been wrong since their first post in the matter.
    Perhaps it is just the inconvenience of accepting the difference in what is versus what should be in Rahl's opinion … But what the hell, I will keep asking Rahl to clarify.

    Nothing in HJ Res. 59 is left unfunded ... And the Senate won't agree with it because of the Individual Mandate delay and subsidies for Congress.
    Neither of those refer to government funding because neither of them are in the existing budget regarding to the Continuing Resolution.
    The ACA is funded separate from the Continuing Resolution ... And delaying the ability for the government to fine people isn't a matter of appropriations in HJ Res. 59.

    I am not doing much today ... A little shopping, packing, cooking and stuff.
    Getting ready for an annual trip to the mountains with friends for a long weekend … We leave tomorrow morning and I hope the leaves are already changing colors up there.

    Here is a picture I took last year on the trip … Not great, but I liked it.
