Shut down the goverment over corporate welfare?

The Senate just killed a bill to fund the US government for another few weeks. According to the TV news, a bit of corporate welfare, money for green car research, was ommitted and the money moved over to FEMA for disaster relief.
Apparently the democratic Senate is willing to start another "fund the government" showdown over a measely billion or so for green pork. Intelligence seems to have left DC for a long vacation.
