Republicans to deny funding for Obama immigration agenda

As far as I know DHS is funded in the bill.

But Obama's illegal program is not funded.

Question is...will Obama veto the whole bill if his pet program is not funded?

You can google s easily s I can. And yes it’s true.

[what's up]

I thought that since you had read or heard it, you would be able to back it up with a source.

Since my time is limited, I don't generally go hunting for something I hear as hearsay. More times than not it's a dead end.

[sheana]

It’s not hearsay. There were many articles all over FR about it before the vote. Not my fault you don’t keep up.

This won’t hold up. What’s Boehner gonna do at the inevitable showdown? Shutdown the government?

That is exactly what Boehner should do. He should pass a bill that forbids any spending for Amnesty and shuts down a significant part of the government if Obama vetoes it. Is Obama really going to shut down the government to preserve an illegal program that brings in criminals to take jobs that would otherwise go to unemployed Americans? Is Obama really going to shut down the government to bring in more criminal children who overwhelm underfunded schools? If Boehner phrases it that strongly but a bit more diplomatically, Obama will have to back down. Sadly though, it'll just be a symbolic vote, then Boehner will cave. As usual. But that is what our "leader" should do.

If they can make their case

Are you serious?

[what's up]

I don't know the source of the articles. From NYT maybe? Salon?

Since you can't back up what you say I can't count on your facts.

[sheana]

And since you want to remain uninformed I won’t do your research for you.
Google.
Works.

[what's up]

And since you want to remain uninformed

On the contrary. I would be willing to be informed but you cannot back up your claim.

I know Google works. It doesn't seem to be working for your claim though. I did do some searches and what you said did not appear to be there. If you put as much time into responding to me into a search you might be able to prove you are right. Because you do not do so I conclude you were mistaken. Perhaps a left wing article gave you and others false info.

[sheana]

I’m going to be nice and just say you really must be slow.
First Search.
Not because I had to but because people like you need help being informed.
