never has there been a bill passed by Congress and signed by POTUS, that didn't get a vote in the House.
sorry buddy, but you must have failed American Government 101.
It has been done before , no doubt by Reid's predecessor:
The Southern District of NY was getting ready to nullify a revenue bill originated by the Senate, The case never reached the Supreme Court because Congress mooted the issue by simply passing the same tax bill again in proper order. Hubbard v. Lowe, 226 F. 135 (S.D.N.Y.1915), appeal dismissed, 242 U.S. 654, 37 S.Ct. 12, 61 L.Ed. 547 (1917).

I keep asking liberals this and not getting an answer. You say over and over that Obama and Reid don't have to negotiate, the minority Republicans have no say. But the Republicans are the majority in the House, and according to the Constitution, spending bills have to pass the House.
So how is it that when Obama/Reid won't negotiate, it's the Republicans who have no say and are the ones shutting down government? Stop dodging and answer the question.
If you pass a bill that becomes law, you fund the law. If you overturn a law, you don't have to fund it.

The ACA is a mandatory spending law -- not discretionary.
Now do you understand why the GOP is trying to rewrite the law without a vote, without winning the Senate, without winning the WH.
They want a do-over. And when we said no, they kicked the ball over the fence. Fucking children.
DO you?
The Democrats HAVE tried to negotiate with the republicans. A couple of months ago the Democrats passed a budget that the House refused to sign. The Democrats sent 18 requests to the republican House requesting that they appoint House members to a joint committee to resolve the budget problem. Eighteen times the republicans ignored the Democrats request. YOU CANNOT NEGOTIATE WITH A PARTY THAT REFUSES TO NEGOTIATE. Now that the republicans have stepped into the shit they suddenly want to negotiate. Obama warned the republicans about what would happen if they shut the government down and they ignored him. Let the republicans eat shit for their stupidity.I keep asking liberals this and not getting an answer.

What might be confusing you is the ridiculous and partisan republican demand that budget talks be predicated on involving changes to existing Federal law having nothing to do with funding the government

Well, you didn't jump over our hoops, now we're mad and we're going to sit on the ball and it's YOUR fault. Grow up, stop being an 8 year old.

Assigning people to budget committees is considered "jumping through hoops"?
GOP Has Had the Opportunity for Budget Negotiations..

You must have been a fun kid. Well, he did it first, she did it first, they were mean, they did that, it's not my fault, nothing's my fault! Obama & Reid are the ones who are saying they won't negotiate and the government is shut down. Whatever has happened up to now, the REPUBLICAN house has to pass a bill and it's your guys sitting on the ball. Pointing fingers while being a core Obama skill doesn't change that fact.
OK, so let's say the Republicans are the meanie poopy pants you say they are and this is all their fault. So what's the next step after Republicans had their chance, now you won't negotiate?

First? How about AT ALL? What part of "The GOP engineered the shutdown" don't you understand? The GOP had the opportunity since April to sit down and start negotiating a budget. They didn't. Why? Because they wanted to use the threat of a shutdown to force the president into repealing his signature legislation. It's not a secret. They telegraphed their intentions back then.
It's the Republicans that are running around pointing fingers at everyone except who is responsible...the Republicans.
A Republican said it "Lemmings in suicide vests"

No. It is considered a waste of time.
This administration has not had a budget in years. All they have are CR's....and to be quite frank, submitting budgets has proven to be a waste of time.

I know what liberals are saying, the problem is I can't find that forced funding claim you all keep making in the Constitution. Where is that?
