GOP faces ominous signs in effort to avoid January shutdown

[Dulcinea]

No government funding bills are scheduled to hit the House floor this week, an ominous sign for Republicans returning to Washington for the first time since their Thanksgiving recess.

Lawmakers face a mid-January deadline to fund the government or enter a partial government shutdown, and the window for completing its work is fast closing.

Losing an entire week without passing an appropriations bill won’t lead to a shutdown. But it doesn’t help either.

1. Whatever is bad for the GOP is good for all the rest of us.

Unfortunately, this latest malpractice episode means it's gonna be bad for EVERYBODY for awhile, until this problem is sorted out.
