>> Why don't the Democrats in Congress just force a vote on the spending bill already passed by the Senate? Because less than two hours before the government shutdown, House Republicans enacted a special rulethat prevents anyone but the majority leader from introducing a bill to fund the government.


The bigger question is why can Harry Reid stop anything from coming to the floor of the Senate without his decision to allow it?

Seems to me the House just did what the Harry Reid Senate did, no?
