Issues have been worked out. there is a very big difference there. the fact remains the house republicans are trying to use this cr this budget situation, to push through their social agenda. i hope they will take heed of the words of the republican senators, coburn and toomey who said this is not the place to be doing that. lets deal with the budget issues, you can fight out the controversial social issues through the regular order, but dont try and oppose your social agenda through the budget....

Im proud of how the house worked its will. and all of these policy issues are continuing to be on the table. >> republicans are not going to get every policy rider they want. >> that would be correct. that would be correct. [ inaudible ] >> theres far more than one provision thats holding up any agreement, i can tell you that. [ inaudible ] >> you may eventually have to do -- is that was the need why dont we do a good old funding c.r. today rather than this true funding bill, and are you prepare...
