    NEW: Paul Ryan told reporters it's too late to do an omnibus spending bill this year that would fund govt for remainder of fiscal year that extends to Sept. 30. (That means another short-term stop gap in late December)

        A 2nd CR in late Dec. has been tossed around as potential vehicle for other things. Yet clearly Collins' healthcare demands are seeing resistance in the House. They potentially lose her vote on the tax bill if they don't do this, then have to pray for health of McCain and Cochran

        But they can slap a pos tax bill together? Why do people take Ryan, or any of these dolts, seriously on policy?

        We are now kicking the can up against the wall. Congress is NOT doing it's job. Just playing politics. Reversing Obama.

        And this could not have been done over the past couple of months for what reason? @SpeakerRyan yet again manipulating system for his personal benefit. Minimal time to do large task follows @SenateMajLdr pattern of playing games with government.

        What do these c*ck gobblers do but obstruct progress and waste time? The clock and agenda has been in Republican control, but all they have done is NOTHING but tearing down Obama policy & adding to a debt (to be defined later) w/ the same shutdown sh!t as before! #WakeUpAmerica
