Repeatedly, the Republicans have taken bills, and not it includes the federal budget, introduced by the President and hacked it into little pieces. Repeatedly, the President has presented bill after bill to Congress that included bipartisan interests and repeatedly the US House has hacked the bills apart only to pass the aspects they approve of while attempting to deprive Democrats of fair and bipartisan bills.
No more.
The National Guard is part of our military. They are not the ONLY entity that serves this nation. By promoting the National Guard over and above the USA military in it's entirety is treason. It puts States Rights before the federal authority of our military. This is not a generous act by Stutzman, this is a further attempt to destroy the federal authority of our government.
If one looks back over the past Congresses under this President a trend can be realized and it is to dissolve federal authority and provide states with authority, this is still another treasonist focus of the Republicans Right Wing.
The US House needs to dissolve the Hastert Rule and allow the entire House to vote for bills presented to Congress by President Obama. The Hastert Rule is the ONLY problem and a political place holder. It is the Hastert Rule the anarchists, such as Stutzman, that allows treason to be a priority in the House.

Rep. Marlin Stutzman, R-3rd, (click here) introduced legislation Wednesday that would protect the National Guard from the partial federal government shutdown that began a day earlier.
The National Guard has furloughed 1,000 members in Indiana, including 216 civilian technicians at the 122nd Fighter Wing in Fort Wayne. Those technicians account for two-thirds of the full-time personnel at the local Air National Guard base, which remains open during the shutdown.
Stutzman's proposal -- the Guard Appropriation Restoration During Shutdown Act, or GARDS Act -- would continue to fund National Guard operations and personnel by amending the Pay Our Military Act, which Congress passed and President Barack Obama signed to exempt active-duty military personnel from the shutdown....
The NIH is a soft target. There is no way any agency should be more important than the other. All agencies FUNCTION in conjunction with the others. End of discussion.
I find it an act of the morons in the House to WAIT FOR THE NATION'S REACTION and then play to the objections, especially, when it comes to the idea of 'strength' over compassion. Military First policies.
This is a strategy and it based in politics and is very dangerous. The US House had absolutely no insight into where the problems would manifest and have no idea YET where undetected problems are bubbling under the surface.
The Republicans have no PLANS. This is governing by HAZARD. It is the government of morons and it screams out loud as same. It was Congressman Whitfield that had a hissy fit when the all the other Secretaries of the Cabinet and/or representatives of their departments didn't show up to give testimony to the House's Energy and Commerce's Subcommittee on Energy and Power. So, don't PRETEND now that all the branches of our government don't work together. That has been a growing trend for some time now and the House has no idea what it is doing by playing God as to what is important to the American people and what is not.
The NIH is a vital part of The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. To separately fund the NIH is to begin to divide the law into pieces and seeks to quite the soft targets while the rest of the nation suffers.
There are plenty of people suffering from cancer throughout the country losing their homes and savings because they aren't the beneficiary of health care insurance sufficient to cover their costs in the struggle for their lives. The experimental drugs of the NIH is only a small part of the suffering of Americans today. There will be no dividing up the country into little SPECIAL INTERESTS simply because they have the 'soft target' attention of a Right Wing political extremist.
It is highly immoral to pick and choose who lives and who dies under the laws of the USA. Those served by the programs of the NIH are a part of the whole and not special to the law of this nation.
I have great empathy for those now victimized by the politics and aspirations of the Republicans in the US House, but, this is our country together and we all suffer the pains the nation experiences due to these immoral legislative acts. We suffered together for decades in order to achieve The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and we will continue to stand together. The US House is picking and choosing who lives and dies in the USA and it will stop NOW!
Human Services Kathleen Sebelius joined with NIH Director Dr. Francis Collins today to announce the recipients of the $1 billion in new therapeutic discovery project credits and grants created by the Affordable Care Act. This program will help nearly 3,000 small biotechnology companies in nearly every state in the country produce new and cost-saving therapies, support good jobs and increase U.S. competitiveness....
