Its self evident.

House GOP passes budget. Dems wont pass/sign budget.

Dems openly say that they will not until and unless they get exactly and everything they want. They will not even negotiate.

Objectively speaking, there is absolutely no question. The whole "GOP TEA PARTY " whatever is just silliness. All Obama has to do is bend some, even delaying the obviously flawed/glitched/unready rollout by a single year which would give them time to fix all the technical issues... and budget impasse would end.

Obama has not a single leg to stand on.
