hello. i m milissa rehberger. more gridlock looks likely on capitol hill with house republicans looking set to block the two-month payroll tax extension. speaker john baoehner says his caucus doesn t want a stopgap solution despite the fact the measure had strong gop sfo support in the senate. more than 30,000 protested in pakistan today demanding their country cut ties with the u.s. relations have grown strained since a nato air strike last month that killed 24 pakistani soldiers. now back to the haunting. it was thursday, october 18, 1979. the choir sang amazing grace, and 2,000 mourners crowded into putnam city baptist church for the funeral of the church s
amendment had been added to the house bill by john baoehner in all of those heat hectic efforts to save face and avoid everything from crashing and burning around him to preserve this strategy of jamming the president. the only viable option would be to sign this boehner bill. when they added that balanced budget amendment, let s face it. the debt ceiling couldn t be raised until the constitution had been amended by a vote of 2/3 of both houses of congress and 3/4 of the states. we can call that objectivity a stretch. the ball is in the senate s court. we have this critical test vote at 1:00 tonight that could be delayed. i don t want to confuse people. this is bewildering enough. what is happening behind closed doors is that harry reid, the senate democrat leader has to get at least seven.
