I couldn’t shoot such a majestic animal unless it was trying to trample me. Plus I don’t think they taste too good.

I’m so tired of “moderates”.

Is this really what the “moderates” wanted? Open borders? Obamacare? High taxes? Massive regulations?

Is this really what they were so desperate for?

Boner really loves a good Doublecross.

Even funnier when the same saps keep coming back for more.

He depends on short memories.

Dang it! Adrian Smith voted for it.

Why can’t we have elections tomorrow? Clearly they didn’t listen when we voted last month.

Gowdy, Gohmert, McClintock, Pelosi, Waters, Waxman were among the no votes.

I know that the dems on this list are as hard core Marxists as they come. But the republicans are solid conservatives. How are they both voting on the same side?This bill must be bad for everybody.

Thank you. It seems most haven’t read it at all. DHS is only funded through March to allow amnesty to be dealt with. Several agencies took real hits, the EPA for one. I am happy they passed a budget, definite public relations plus (except here), and some very nice cuts or restrictions.

I can’t believe Gov. Pence’s successor, Luke Messer (R), voted ‘yeah’.
In two years Republicrats will be hitting FR hard to elect their RINO SOB.

DHS is only funded through March to allow amnesty to be dealt with.

Boner doesn’t want DHS to have more border agents or a fence either. GOP get your head out of your butt, these GOPe types want amnesty, just don’t want Obama doing it on his own.

Fact is they lie as well as Obama does. We got Grubered by
Boner.

It was today all about knocking out campaign finance limits so the big money boys can have more clout than ever. The GOPe, and its chamber of horrors, banks, and brokers, hedge funders got their way. Conservative who want smaller government need a new party.

To: Maceman; All

Having made a few calls, and received the “skinny” on the political side and demography of this vote...

You can bet your non-existent bottom dollar that the republican party leadership now “owns” the bill to continue to operate YOUR government despite the need to make a significant dent in the debt...(But this is almost beside the point...)

The “NV’s” has one guy that is interesting to have in that bunch...Jeb Hensarling is a Chair of a very important and influential fiduciary committee...I WOULD bet a bottom dollar that he abstained because he has a big Tea Party base in N.E. Texas and didn’t want to piss them off...And he didn’t want to go against the republican leadership because he wants to stay as a chairman of that committee...

Make your assumptions based upon that political reality...

As for the rest of the republicans on the “yea” side...

Be aware, you own the spending this next year...

Your future rest on your “promise” (hack, cough, spit) to take it to the democrats and Obama and pound them into dust with your reinforcements coming next month!!! I would say you “yea” list’ers are a bunch of political cowards who lack principled virtue and do not understand the simple difference between what is right, and what is wrong...

And the American public is bleeding out, you are the doctors who are failing to save the patient...

This country is WAYYYYYY past its last chance...Time for you schmups to fall on those swords and bleed a lot like the rest of us...

Where you should have approved the funding for this next year by actually “working” thru your holidays, coming up, to approve at least thru the department level the funding for each (separately), with a simple up or down vote...

You limp wristed wastes of space kicked the can down the road on another “promise” to really get something done...

Guess what...Not foolin’ anyone anymore that is paying attention...

So, I would suggest a lot of us make a few phone calls today...Based upon the vote tally, noted in one of the early posts here, hang a heavy yoke on these idiots...

I will conclude, that there IS something really strange about the democrats on the “nay” side...

I heard Pelosi had given instruction for those in that party to “vote their conscience” on this Amendment to the Amendment introduced by the non-voting representative from the US V.I.

Keep that in mind...I’m still working on some details that I am still in the process of collecting...

Enjoy...

Also, be aware that when the weekend talking idiots get together and compare the “split” in the ranks of the republicans, make sure you know that is an embellishment, regardless of the source...

A smart commentator will also state in the very same sentence that the bigger split (difference) was the democrats...

Just another thing to keep in mind...
