The only "suffering" I've heard of so far is from people who want to visit national parks, property which belongs to the people anyway.
When you play with snarky little children, Frank, you inevitably become one.

Eight hundred thousand out of work and, who knows how many more affected because government employees aren't spending any more than they have to. All of this because some in congress want to hold the whole country hostage to prevent funding the Affordable Health Care Act. Like it or not it is law and has been upheld by the Supreme Court. I am of a mind the naysayers are afraid it might work and they will have egg on their face. Let it run its course and if it doesn't work it can be repealed at a later date.

Look I’m a conservative and if you’d like to look at my past posts you’ll see I speak the truth. As far as the negotiations are concerned none are needed. The ACA was passed in accordance with our laws and our practices. Okay it didn’t go the way the Republicans wanted, there are ways within our system to repeal the law if it is indeed a bad law. Holding the country hostage is not how we should proceed. We need to get on with our countries business and if they want to repeal the ACA then go about it in accordance to the rules. The Republicans are simply acting like a bunch of whiny assed spoiled brats that didn’t get their way and it’s embarrassing.

Obama is the only president who refuses to negotiate.

the "Supreme" Court upheld Plessy vs Ferguson, too....kept blacks discriminated against for years afterwards, much to the delight of the segregationist Democrap Party

What exactly were those other presidents being asked to compromise on? If the president bends on this one it will set a precedent that any time the opposition dem or republican can hold the whole country hostage to repeal a law. BAD IDEA

The other presidents didn't use that excuse. Effective negotiation creates a win-win.

What the Republicans are trying to present as negotiations is actually extortion.
I stand with the President. This is not a bill; it is the law. If you don't like it, elect a Republican President.
(yeah, that'll happen)

hj my question was, What exactly were those other presidents being asked to compromise on? Did any of those compromises have to do with nullification of or not funding a law that was passed by congress and upheld by SCOTUS You brought up what the others did so you should I assume be cognizant of what was involved.

Excerpt from article by Ed Farnan:

There is a huge elephant in the living room; and many folks have started to notice it.
Fresh on the heels of Obama’s eagerness to negotiate with two known terrorist states, Syria and Iran, as well as his high profile acquiescence to Russia’s President Putin in averting a violent confrontation in the Mideast, many are questioning why he won’t even sit down and negotiate with fellow Americans of another political party to find a budget solution.

Obama decrees that the House of Representatives need to do their job. In other words, sit down, shut up, and rubber-stamp what President Obama and Harry Reid want.
In the face of the urgency, Obama spent a leisurely weekend golfing and attending parties. Over the weekend, Harry Reid let the Senate go home and enjoy family time. The House of Representatives stayed on the job throughout the weekend offering alternatives, trying to find a way to get an agreement.
The main bone of contention has been the implementation of the heavily flawed Obamacare legislation. The bill has so many defects that President Obama himself has made exceptions, carve outs, and delays to many of his supporters. This in itself is an admission that the law is not ready to be enacted on the rest of the country. This is also an unlawful way to re-write legislation.

But perhaps the most insulting part of the law is that President Obama, Congressional political appointees, and their staffs are exempted or specially subsidized from it….and that is creating a lot of resentment.
The latest rumored proposal from the House is that they want to delay the individual mandate for Obamacare for one year, just like what President Obama gave to corporations. Additionally, a demand that all political leaders in Washington be subject to Obamacare. All other provisions of the “Continuing Resolution” would be funded.

All indications from Harry Reid and President Obama are that they will accept no changes to their demands and want the budget resolution bill passed intact with Obamacare untouched.
If anything comes out of this, it will magnify the President’s unwillingness to negotiate with Republicans on almost any level; yet he seems eager to negotiate with terror states and repressive regimes.
