We're just days away from a government shutdown, because the House Republican Leadership will not negotiate on Federal government budget cuts. President Obama and Congressional Democrats have proposed tens of billions of dollars in cuts. When the Republican Leadership refused to give on some of their demands, like cutting funds for Homeless Veterans, the President and Democrats proposed even more cuts in other areas, in a good faith effort. At last count, the White House has proposed $33 billion in cuts, as much as the House GOP originally proposed.
