Have -- cannot have an objection to and you heard director mulvaney and mr. short spelling that out. there were three or four things that we would have loved to have in here and yet we were asked to look at having those legislative initiatives handled separately. so i can tell you that its going to be very different. it is not good for our country and right now there are 43 democratic senators who need to do some soul searching and see if theyre willing to change their vote, hopefully later toda...

Saturday trying to come up with a solution to and the government shutdown. joining me now is house republican conference chair, roger morris. good of you to join us today. difficult day for you obviously. >> and its completely unnecessary. we dont need to be in this situation. unfortunately there is political games beingplayed. the house took action and was supported by partisan to keep the government-funded. provided fun funding to children. pay our troops. we didnt need to be in the situation ...
