The House of Representatives voted 266-167 Wednesday to approve a budget deal that raises the nation's debt ceiling through March 2017, potentially avoiding a fiscal crisis that could have ensued if the nation defaulted on its loans.
The measure amounts to one final package crafted by House Speaker John Boehner with other legislative leaders and President Barack Obama, as Boehner wraps up a tumultuous career leading the House and an even longer career in Congress. The deal also clears the plate for GOP speaker nominee Paul Ryan, who surprised some conservatives Wednesday when he announced he would support the measure.
The deal was approved as 79 Republicans joined with 187 Democrats to easily clear the number of votes needed to send the measure to the Senate.
Democratic and Republican leaders made one last pitch to their colleagues Wednesday evening just before the vote was called.
"We close where we started, as we all recognize this agreement is not perfect. But it certainly beats the alternative and it is a positive step forward. It ensures the full faith and credit of the United States -- we will pay our bills on time," said Rep. Chris Van Hollen, a Maryland Democrat and his party's ranking member on the House Budget Committee.
House Appropriations Chairman Hal Rogers, a Kentucky Republican, said the deal accomplishes something almost better than avoiding default: a chance to get back to normal.
"It's important. Very important, of course, that we avoid the default in our debt ceiling, coming up momentarily," Rogers said. "All of these things you heard about in this debate are great. But for me, the two years that we have now to get back on regular order and stop lurching from crisis to crisis, to stop that business -- this bill will

The GOOBs really stuck it to America this time. I would have preferred a government shutdown. I enjoy watching the communist DemocRATS whining and throwing tantrums until their heads explode.
The establishment must be so proud of themselves.
the traitors that voted for it should be, well...
Why did we give them a majority again?
Why does the media continue to lie about this phantom default and people across this country are gullible and stupid enough to believe it!? It escapes reality that we have this many dumb people and a press that blatently tosses falsehoods. Rubio was spot on when he called the media Hillarys super pac
Now now! As long as they are all getting along. I mean who wants a congress that won’t get along? It’s for the children.
I’ll keep hammering on this, and perhaps - when things get bad enough - some of you will listen ... The ONLY way, short of armed insurrection, to stop these jerks is to STOP filing a federal tax return!
Take out the max number of exemptions on your W4, and STOP FILING A RETURN! Do not file a false return, but DO NOT FILE period.
All of you here on Free Republic constantly complain about this renegade Administration and the establishment cronies who empower its tyranny - and yet you continue to play by their rules! STOP OBEYING the bastards!
If there ever was a time to declare a national tax strike .... If there ever was a time for civil disobedience ....
If there ever was a time for an all-out revolt against these tyrannical fools ...
THIS IS THE TIME!
If you are unwilling to even do this much, then not only have you no right to complain, but you also very much deserve the behemoth that is going to very soon enslave and murder you and your children.
Remember THIS:
‘If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.” - Sir Winston Churchill
Imagine that.
What happened to the 72 hour rule?
If it were physically possible, Boehner would be carrying Obama’s child right now. I still wonder how he didn’t become pregnant.
Makes you wonder if he had a vested interest in keeping Planned Parenthood available in case he needed them.
Only 10% kidding here...
Time to move to the Australian Outback to live with Dingos. I may be safer with them.
“I still wonder how he didn’t become pregnant.
He may cry like a menstruating woman, but he’s not a woman...although I’m not sure he’s a man, either.
Fuch them all.
Yep. That was my thought process alright. LOL
The sight of these rotten sellout bastards makes my as stomach turn sour.
CONgre$$ cheers and the rest of FEDGOV winks in approval.
Thieves are in the house. Someone call the police.
You would use the law to oppose socialism? But it is upon the law that socialism itself relies. Socialists desire to practice legal plunder, not illegal plunder. Socialists, like all other monopolists, desire to make the law their own weapon. And when once the law is on the side of socialism, how can it be used against socialism? For when plunder is abetted by the law, it does not fear your courts, your gendarmes, and your prisons. Rather, it may call upon them for help. - “Socialism Is Legal Plunder” - Bastiat

Yep, matches my opinion of the guy.
Don’t file. Just go to jail. You can do so much from jail...
I take it that you’ve never had to pay an attorney $400 an hour. Or perhaps your assets don’t amount to much so you’re not concerned with being fined a few hundred thousand dollars.
