Well, the GOP has also added social issues rider after rider to all their funding bills, especially and most recently an anti-abortion rider. We can't have a budget passed unless we also outlaw abortion? It's absurd.
The other thing that worries me is that Boehner is completely being driven by the Tea Party, who want 100% of what they want, and if they don't get it they want the government shut down - as if that's not an important thing! It's like having children in charge of this country!

800,000 federal employees who are paid by the working American to the tune of 50K/year would save $40 Billion/year. (almost 1/2 of what the Tea Party wants cut) Lets give the shut down a try. Last time no one even noticed. Let government catch up to the private sector. While private companies have become leaner and either frozen or reduced pay, the government has grown fatter.
BTW The GOP looking out for the troops is not a novel idea. Unlike some Dems, Reps don't generally loathe the military and don't accuse them of acting like SS troops.
