They have sent us the message loud and clear repeatedly through 8 years of Obama. They will NOT risk the democrats blaming them for shutting down the government....not even over bringing in jihadist refugees, a program opposed by an overwhelming number of Americans.
The America Protection Clause: give it a catchy name and allow Obama to veto an entire bill to get rid of it.
Do they honestly think they cannot win that fight?
But the bottom line is this: IIRC, this funds the government until Sep of 2016 right before the elections. Since republicans do not have the spine to oppose spending increases and the funding of immoral death programs, that means that the democrats want that date to make election points for Hillary.
The republicans went along with it. It is possible, they have already decided to let Hillary win.
We must locate the candidate who truly is not a covert supporter of the establishment. I think it is Trump or Cruz or both.
In September 2016 they may bring up some stuff like PP funding to suck you into supporting their re-election in November, but it’s emotional wedge phony issues and show votes.
