(CNSNews) - In his weekly address on Saturday, President Barack Obama warned that there will be another government shutdown threat two weeks before Christmas and said he “will not sign” a short-term spending bill.
The continuing resolution that Congress passed this week runs until Dec. 11. If President Obama does “not sign” the spending bill Congress sends him to fund the government after that date, Obama will shut down the government.
The government will not be funded until Obama signs an appropriations bill passed by Congress.

The Democrats are trying their best to find a way to shut it down to try to blame the Republicans.
Pass the funding bill, then DARE Obama to veto it-- let him own the shutdown. Hang it around his neck.
Ob' will shutdown our whole country if he can, then declare Martial Law. That is his goal.
Stop hemorrhaging money via the obammy welfare tit.
Problem solved.
With a (hopefully) House Speaker representing the people, maybe they'll get a spending bill with PP defunded, some Obamacare functions repealed, and some welfare/food stamps defunded.
Then let the POS not sign it - and own the shutdown!
So Shut it down! But DO NOT PAY A SINGLE CONGRESSMAN A DIME! If they shut it down then they should suffer as well!
Send all the federal employees home
Send the jobs back to the states and let them run their own affairs
