President Barack Obama, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and House Speaker John Boehner have reached a deal on the budget to prevent a government shutdown. But that doesn't mean that Boehner can get the entire Republican conference on board.

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), chairman of the Republican Study Committee, told reporters that he's a no vote on the final package.

"We really wanted more advancement on the life issue than was in the final package," Jordan told a small group of reporters after the vote. "I think there's a significant number of no votes."

Jordan was referring to the anti-abortion provisions that were stripped in the deal.

The budget deal is a total surrender by a gutless Speaker. Those who vote for it deserve a primary!!!

1. Trying to legislate 'life issues' in a budget bill is ridiculous, and ....

in my opinion should be against the rules.
The budget should fund and reflect the bills that have already been passed in the past,
and not be used for trying to change what has already been agreed on doing.
