GOP steaming towards shutdown

It's Saturday 9/28/2013 and only 2 days to go before a government shutdown and the GOP has allowed the anarchist Tea Party element of their party to paint them into a very bad corner.  They are set to propose a 1-year delay of Obamacare and a permanent repeal of its tax on medical devices as conditions to keep government running, and that would assure shutdown, as the Senate will vote it down in a second.

House leaders also proposed a provision to ensure that military service members would not be affected by a shutdown, an indication that Republicans will try to insulate themselves from political fallout if a shutdown occurs.
The proposal will be considered by the House in three separate votes. The one-year delay and the tax repeal for medical devices would be added to the Senate spending bill. The measure to keep financing for the troops in the event of a shutdown would be separate. Votes are likely to come on Saturday night.

 I think the GOP will come to regret this craziness very soon.
