I thank the gentlelady. Mr. Speaker, four facts, one question. Fact 1: ObamaCare passed the House by the House Democrats, 219 of them. Now, 34 Ds joined Republicans in opposition. Let us see how many join on funding the government with the upcoming CR. Fact 2: Republicans are poised to fund everything in the government at the current levels, and are eager to do so. Fact 3: Polls show that Americans overwhelmingly do not want ObamaCare. Fact 4: This House of Representatives is the keeper of the purse, as designed in the Constitution, and it's well within our authority to defund the ill-conceived and very unpopular government takeover of health care. Only one question, Mr. Speaker: Will those same Democrats that voted for ObamaCare vote with the American people this time, and will the Senate vote with the American people this time? I'm Randy Weber, and that's the way I see it.

She should have never stooped that low. 'I'm going to disrespect him in that fashion, of making fun of what happened to him.'
