Subject: Re: AFGE union calls shutdown end

What's the right hill Steve?

"Plan Steve" has been offered, more than once, in threads about this shutdown: don't filibuster the GOP bill. Dems vote "present" not aye or nay. Let the GOP wear the consequences. If the mob likes the consequences, then the Dems need to reevaluate their values. If the mob doesn't like it, the Dems have an entire year to rub it in, before people go to the polls. As it is now, the Dems are hurting a lot more people then they would help, if they prevailed.
