reid, proposes an amendment numbered 1975 to amendment numbered 1974. mr. reid: mr. president, in relation to that i have a motion to recommit -- a motion to commit h.j. res. 59 and that has instructions at the desk. the presiding officer: the clerk will report the motion. the clerk: the senator from nevada, mr. reid, moves to commit the bill to the committee on appropriations with instructions to report back forthwith an amendment numbered 1976.

i hope harry reid reconsiders. the constituents in nevada who elected him they are hurting because of obamacare and there are thrie00 million americans who are losing their jobs and who are at risk of losing their health care because of obamacare. we need to listen to the people. >> how dowry spawned to those who say you took this entire situation 21 hours close to brinks man ship by carrying out a speech that fundamentally and technically and procedurally couldn't change things. >> the purpose of the filibuster is trying to frame this debate for the american people. they will try to focus the american people on the disaster that is owe -- obamacare. it uses the words of the lead democratic senator who wrote the bill. the nightmare that is obamacare to use the words of the teamsters. we accomplished a great deal. if you look at what the conversation has been in the past month or the past week more people are focusing on it not working. it is not ready for prime time. 24r* are reasons the exemption want exemptions.

don't stand with harry reid. don't give reid the power to fund obamacare. it's making a difference. >> the reason you want to vote no on cloture is as soon as you do, harry reid needs just a simple majority to strip out the defunding provision of the house c.r. is that it? >> that's exactly right. there are republicans trying to tell constituents that votingmr yes on cloture means you support defunding obamacare. i will just point out one thing, sean. harry reid will vote yes on cloture. every single democrat will vote yes on cloture. the reason is simple. they know if you get 60 senators to vote yes that harry reid can fund obamacare in its entire uh ti. i think we ought to have all 46 republicans unite. we should stand together with the house republicans as one and say, we don't support obamacare because it is hurting the american people. it's killing jobs, threatening the health care of millions of americans. we are going to stand up and fight. >> i uh i want to ask you about it. first to the exchange with corker of tennessee. i i will follow up then on

harry reid, senator reid and president obama haven't wanted to negotiate anything or change anything. >> what happened to the medical device tax, congresswoman? what happened to that one, and did that one disappear and that was a problematic one because it opens a bigger hole in the deficit, $30 billion over ten years. >> the medical device tax is very important to us. we would like to see it repealed. the medical device tax is really threatening medical innovation moving forward, and the senate rejected it. it was very disappointing that they rejected that after 79 senators earlier had voted to repeal the medical device tax. >> all right. >> i've got to leave it there. as always, ma'am, appreciate you coming on the show. >> good to be with you. >> now, we're about four and a half hours from a government shutdown. we'll talk about how that's going to affect stocks and a lot more in the next half hour. it's a special edition of "the kudlow report." please, stay with us. the american dream is of a better future, a confident retirement. those dreams, there's just no way we're going to le

senator reid acted.nt open. >> but let's be clear, the house has twice now voted to keep the government open. and if we have a shutdown, it will only be because when the senate comes back harry reid says i refuse to talk. also, let's be clear, president obama has granted a delay for big corporations, every big corporation has gotten a delay. if harry reid shuts the government down he will be saying if american families don't get a delay like the corporations, hard working american families, he is going to insist they suffer. >> it is interesting, democrats say you know the promise with senator cruz' position is it is a purist position. there are problems with obama care. we have had some polls saying there is great dissatisfaction at the town halls, but you haven't debated on how to change the law, what you have gone out and said let's kill the law, let's de-fund it. >> actually, with respect , david, i think it is wrong, i voted to repeal the law, but that was not my position in this fight. my position

do you remember the date that harry reid -- last week, the leader, harry reid, on the pbs "nevada week in review," senate majority leader harry reid was asked whether his goal was to move obamacare to a singlepayer system. his answer was yes, yes, absolutely yes. now, do a lot of the people know what a singlepayer system is? that is essentially socialized medicine. i want to signed of relive. you said some of the more seasoned ones. i was around during the clinton administration when there was a thing called hillary health care. does my friend from texas rather hillary health care? mr. cruz: i -- i do indeed, and i remember in particular at the time the press, all of the gray beards in washington saying at the time hillary care was unstoppable, can't be stopped. you need to accept it. republicans need to get together. if you will recall initially, the response was something widely described as hillary care-lite. back then in the midst of the hillary care fight, there were a few courageous leaders in the house who stood up against hillary care. and what changed that fight, what changed

if harry reid kills that, harry reid is response ible for shuttg down the government. he should listen to the american people. don't fund obama care because it's hurting the american people. it's not working. that's why the unions want out. that's why senate democrats want out, because it's not working. >> senator, we're going to talk about that with senator mccaskill in the next segment. thank you for joining us today and we'll stay on top of the battle of the budget. should be interesting. >> thank you, chris. >>> up next, syria submits an initial inventory of its chemical weapons stockpile. >>> and then, senator claire mccaskill on syria and the government shutdown and the massacre at the fighting constipation by eating healthier, drinking plenty of water, but still not getting relief? try dulcolax laxative tablets. dulcolax is comfort-coated for gentle, over-night relief. dulcolax. predictable over-night relief you can count on. ♪ for a store near you go to benjaminmoore.com/bayarea. for a store near you go to benjaminmoore.com/bayarea. >>> the syrian government ha

today the motion i filed, harry reid objected. if he had not objected we would have taken a government shutdown off the table. if harry reid and the president are saying unless they can force funding for obamacare, unless they can force obamacare on every american family, they are going to shut down the government. the way we stop it is standing up to them and saying, look, fund every bit of government. >> the house did that. >> the house has voted to fund government. it's harry reid who is trying to stop this, who objected today to doing that. >> all right. when you were on the program last week, you and senator lee were very, very clear that you would do everything in your power to get there. does that mean filibuster? tell me where you think this end s. i don't know if you have a crystal ball. where do you think it will end up uh? >> i'm going to use every procedural means available to me to fight this fight. >> including filibuster. >> this is a multi stage fight. >> everything including filibuster. this is a multi stage fight

there is very little new harry reid can learn. he has a closed mind on the issue and doesn't care even when the culinary union, one of the most powerful democratic players in nevada and las vegas is going nuts as they figure out how obamacare will adversely affect them. >> i don't know where he gets the chutzpah to call it a waste of time. this is the leader of the united states senate. he knew september 30 would roll around. he knew it would be a problem. as i said before, he took a five-week vacation. >> sure. >> he took off. he knew it. the reason they are doing a continuing resolution is because they didn't do their work to do a budget. talk uh about a waste of time. you are looking at him on the screen. he has a lot of nerve ebb to say anybody else does. >> right. remember what the goal of the senate democrats was. they have a budget that spend s $1,058,000,000. nearly a hundred billion more than the democratic president agreed to in their budget agreement in july of 2011. harry reid now two years after the agreement which re

this schaer reid's biggest nightmare for his democratic majority. they've take some votes they don't like. that's why he dislikes. obama care is unlikable, unaffordable. as days go by it becomes less popular. we have an opportunity in the house to say we're serious about defunding obama care. harry reid, is he going to shut the government down just for their one particular program they recognize is not work well. >> do you actually think -- i'm asking a serious question, when you do the vote count, i don't see how the republicans can win this. i don't see it. you tell me. i just don't think the votes are there. >> the question is, is the president and harry reid, are they going to stick to the red line? i think the recent history on numerous topics is sometimes they are willing to negotiate and right now harry reid and the president are not willing to negotiate at all and that's not the way things work in the government or work in the real world and sending a bill over to the senate requiring harry reid to come together and deciding what to do about

now harry reid is suddenly the guy for fast action.here was he when they took a five-week vacation? >> should have been here. and september 30 seems to happen every calendar year. >> i have noticed that as well. >> i'm not sure why this is a startling fact. it's as if we saved the day by beating the deadline of october 1. can you imagine any business -- fox news, my small business -- running my i books based on the day before all the bills start getting due for the next cycle? >> why don't others see it that way? everyone is busy talking about the continued resolution, but no one understands the job of creating a budget and agreeing on a budget was never met. so this is sort of -- one job wasn't done. now a second job to cover up for the first job not done can't be done. it's like hiring a secretary for your secretary who isn't doing the job. it doesn't work. if you look at the last four year where is the senate had no budget whatsoever, the fact that we have a budget now is a laughable document simply because it needs another trillion

he's being very -- he and reid are going out of their way to insult boehner.you are, republican, democrat, okay, let the games begin. i've been in the process. you've been in that process. we've all been in that process. but those guys, they don't play well with other children. i think that's really going to be a long-term problem. they just don't. they can dish it out. but can they take it when it comes back to them? >> but the law passed. >> implementation is october 1st. today's september 27th. >> so let it pass. >> some laws pass and then are taken back when they don't work. >> aren't we all clear the employer mandate has been delayed one year by this administration. the same administration has requested a one-year delay and the employer mandate -- joe manchin said it was reasonable and sensible -- >> he changes his mind every other week. >> are you disavowing him? what about mary landrieu? >> they're democrats by name sometimes. >> you're saying obama is trying to warn us. he's not a traffic cop. he's the president. >> i have to get out. but i think if yo

that depends on harry reid and president obama. if they decide they want to force a government shutdown we will have one. i don't think we should. we should keep the government running. it would be irresponsible for harry reid and president obama to force a shutdown. if that happens, we've had many shut downs in the past, hasn't been the end of the world, i don't think we should have one now. if that happens the very effective tool the house can use, because part of the games this administration is likely to play in the shutdown is try to pick the most sympathetic instances and hold them hostage like the debt ceiling, they want to threaten a default to scare the american people. if there's no rule that says the continuing resolution has to cover every bit of the government. if harry reid forced a shutdown with president obama, i think it makes a lot of sense for the house to pass a continuing resolution first on the military. we'll fund the military. no matter what happens we should never threaten to cut off funding for men and wom

harry reid will hold a fund-raiser for mitch mcconnell's political opponent. senate lied ares don't usually get involved in bill frist did to tom daschle in '04 and now reid is doing it to mcconnell. finally, i'm going to answer your twitter questions tonight. this is "hardball," the place for politics. more is better. that's why we designed the all-new nissan versa note, with more technology, to get you into, and out of, tight spots. and more space so that you always have your favorite stuff. and just for good measure, an incredibly efficient 40 mpg highway.

if they flip flop, harry reid has procedural problems. they're trying to put on political pressure.y'll do one more thing, pass a companion bill to fund the pentagon and troops in the event of shutdown so troops aren't left without pay. >> we heard from senator harry reid say he is not dealing with any piece of legislation that does anything to obama care. what are you hearing from senate staffers. >> reporter: he said that. they're saying the same thing. procedurally it is pretty interesting, we think we know where this is probably headed based on the arcane procedure baked into this. the way this is structured harry reid will have a pretty easy time killing the two amendments that i just described, the senate which is likely now to maybe come back sunday we're hearing instead of the originally scheduled monday. harry reid would only need 51 votes to kill the obama care delay that house republicans want to try again on. he wouldn't need the magical 60 votes ordeal with ted cruz or anything like that. on the medical device tax, same goes. he only needs 51 votes. the only question is

right now, harry reid thinks that the house republicans will blink. we are not ready to blink. we are not blinking. we are taking no doz. our goal right now to make sure that we do what we've been told to do and sent to do and that's get it right with obama care. >> all right. but i just can't see -- unfortunately, i can't see the house republicans giving in on this or caving and i can't see the democrats in the senate either because the democrats in the senate are as passionate about their position as the house republicans are. >> but the american people want us to do something about this bill. and so, it isn't just my way or the highway on either side. we think a big compromise because -- remember, the bill we sent over to the senate was defunding of obama care forever. forever. so what we're saying now is defund obama care for a year. completely delay obama care for a year. and take a look at that bill over the next year. that's what we're saying so we're -- this is what -- i'm not saying that's what the position will be tomorrow. i'm saying that's what a large group was in

i'm joy reid in for alex wagner.hen house speaker john boehner believed elections had consequences? >> you had said next year that you would repeal the health care vote. that still your mission? >> the election changes that. it's pretty clear the president was elected. obama care is the law of the land just 11 months and 40 defunding votes later the federal government is 12 hours away from a shutdown after the house passed a measure coupled with defunding of the law. despite the ticking clock, the weekend went without any meetings between john boehner, harry reid or president obama. that's by design. the president met with top officials sunday and in his weekly radio address made it clear he's done negotiating while laying the blame squarely at the feet of the gop. >> republicans in the house have been more concerned with appeasing their party than working to strengthen the economy and middle class. >> despite republicans put on a united front insisting any government shutdown would be the fault of senate disms. thei

they should stop harry reid from changing the house bill and for inserting the funding with 51 votes. that will be the fight whether he can use a straight party line vote -- and senate republicans, if they stand together, we can stop harry reid. >> are you going to block consideration of the bill? will you allow consideration of the bill? you can filibuster that. if you lose that, then a simple majority could take out obama care. so are you going to have a consideration of the bill, a vote up or down, or let them vote to block a bill that you support. >> first we will ask harry reid if had will allow amendmented to be subject to 60-vote threshold. in all likelihood will will say no because he wanted to force funding through with democrats. he does that even senate republicans have the tool that we always used when the majority leader is becausing his power. we can filibuster and say we will not allow use to add the funding back for obama care with just 51 votes. >> if i may, you say this is brute political power, it's senate rule 22 that has been around for years. it says you say allo

reid: mr. president? the presiding officer: is there objection? the majority leader. mr. reid: reserving the right to object, mr. president, my friend has had an opportunity to speak. i'll speak a longer period of time in a few minutes about his statements that he's made the last several hours. but he's spoken. at 1:00, the senate will speak and we'll follow the rules of the senate. i've said very clearly on a number of occasions, we should be moving quickly to get this to the house as soon as we can. i object. the presiding officer: shoarksd. mr. cruz: i will ask a second unanimous consent request. i ask unanimous consent that if a cloture motion is filed on the underlying measure, that cloture vote occur during friday's session of the senate, notwithstanding the provisions of rule i 22. mr. reid: mr. president, reserving the right to object, we're going to have a cloture vote at 1:00 and any consent agreements after that i would be happy to listen to them. at this stage, i object. the presidi

there's some speculation reid would accept the permanent repeal of the device tax, but reid has beenadamant that he will not do that, so the end game is unclear. >> so technically if the house, maybe around 10:00 when we know where they end up, that then goes officially back to the senate. do we expect the senate to be in session tomorrow? >> no. so far they've said they won't be back tomorrow. they'll be back at 2:00 on monday. harry reid, perhaps emboldened by the polling on this issue, has said, if you vote for this bill, you're voting for a government shutdown. they say clean or nothing. unlike other debates, back to the debt limit debate, the original government funding debate from april of 2011, this time the democrats, they don't care, they're saying, fine, if you want to play this game, we're more than happy to do it. the president's been reelected, we think we have the high ground, let's go. it's odd to see democrats emboldened to that degree especially the last few years when they've had to go so far on the right on a lot of these negotiations. >> i agree. the dynamics, pol

i'm joy reid in for alex wagner.hen house speaker john boehner believed elections had consequences? >> you had said next year that you would repeal the health care vote. that still your mission? >> the election changes that. it's pretty clear the president was elected. obama care is the law of the land just 11 months and 40 defunding votes later the federal government is 12 hours away from a shutdown after the house passed a measure coupled with defunding of the law. despite the ticking clock, the weekend went without any meetings between john boehner, harry reid or president obama. that's by design. the president met with top

reid causes a shutdown, that would be a mistake. but that is his position. >> so where's it go from here? we're joined from washington by christina. while we've seen all the talk on the sunday morning shows, what's happening behind the scenes, if anything? >> there's not a whole lot happening behind the scenes. leadership in both parties are not really having conversations with the white house. all weekend this was more an issuing of statements back and forth. the president had a veto threat of what the house passed saturday night very late in the evening. and harry reid, the senate majority leader, said they would absolutely not accept what the house passed. so everybody is waiting for the senate to return to washington and come into session on monday at 2:00. >> what happens at 2:00? first, with the senate and then the house and maybe the white house. >> what harry reid will do is not accept any changes to the president's health care law. there were really three things that the house did on saturday night. the senate will be able

the big question, will they boo or cheer andy reid. reid spent 14 years here.ed the eagles to the playoffs five times. five championship games and one super bowl appearance. but tonight he comes as kansas city head coach and public enemy number one. >> this is about our football team. it's not about me. it's not an one-man show. it has nothing to do with that. this will take a team effort when we play the philadelphia eagles. >> reporter: adding to tonight's drama, the eagles will retire jonathan mcnabb's jersey. they'll be forever linked because they led the team to five championship games and one super bowl appearance. reid is still considered a father figure to many of these current eagles because he drafted many of them and he even gave michael vick in 2009 after the quarterback was released from prison. >> seeing him in red, it's different for me, but i'm just happy that coach is happy. i'm happy that he had the opportunity to start fresh and do what he love doing. >> an excellent person. people don't realize how good of a person he really was. to the medi

reid: mr. president? the presiding officer: the majority leader. mr. reid: there willing no roll call votes today. it is not necessary to have any because we're in a procedural situation here dealing with the c.r. the first vote of the week will be tomorrow at 11:45 on confirmation of a judge, a federal circuit court judge by the name of hughes. i ask consent that between now and 6:00 p.m., senators be permitted to speak for up to ten minutes each. the presiding officer: without objection, so ordered. mr. reid: i ask unanimous consent the senate proceed to executive session to consider nominations number 338, 33 the, 314 and 343. senator does the -- the presiding officer: does the senator yield? mr. cruz: well, i object. you asked for consent, and i object. mr. reid: the house deny add plan for health insurance. outside the house republican bubble, reaction was altogether different. the radical tea party plan to shut down the government, unless democrats dish it has been called the dumbest idea

reid: madam president, we need reasonable time. i want to make sure this is not going to be another performance here this afternoon. the presiding officer: for how long do the senators wish to engage in a colloquy? mr. cruz: i cannot imagine it would extend beyond ten minutes. the presiding officer: is there objection to the request? mr. reid: no. no. the presiding officer: without objection. mr. cruz: madam president, i appreciate the senator from tennessee's comments supporting the majority leader, and i know the senator from tennessee is learned on senate procedures, so that i know he must have made a misstatement when he moments ago suggested that those of us who participated in the filibuster the other day somehow changed our position in voting for the motion to proceed. and the reason i know the senator from tennessee is mistaken is because during the course of that filibuster, i explicitly stated i support the motion to proceed. i stated that a week before the filibuster repeatedly. i have always stated that the vote on the
