Defibrillators, or delay that. Also, they do want military paychecks to keep coming. But again, that is the house version where they stand. The senate says no way, the only thing they would consider is simply keeping the government open, nothing that would affect the health care law. So the contest begins, canke odonnell, i know you will be watching, thank you, joining me this morning, ted cruz, the man in the middle of the fight. So here are the stakes, defunding, say you and other republicans, the president says no way. The law is moving forward. Are you in control . At the end of the day every senator has to decide how he or she is going to vote. Every representative has decided how they are going to vote. The house last night voted to keep the government open, to fully fund the government, but at the same time the house responded to the millions of americans who are hurting under obama care, and i think the senate needs to do the same thing. I looked at polling that shows the law i

Enough. Well, the next step, lets talk about that, the senate needs to act, in my view harry reid should call the senate back in today. We have a bill in front of us, there is a Government Shutdown in 48 hours. Listen, i would love to be in houston with my two little girls playing with them this afternoon, but as you know im here in washington, d.

But how do we get from there to here . That is a big question, i was at a small gathering with rowhani, it is very clear theyre concerned about the bank situation. He is a politician, he was elected wi
