What? And get blamed for another shutdown for not caving into the progressives agenda? No thanks.
So shutting down the government was the only other alternative? They hold majorities in both houses. There was no way to offset some of the huge spending in this bill--you know, the way they always demand that the Democrats do?
The FINAL say are the Dems, they are going to be the majority votes AND the President has veto power. No need to blame the R's when the Dems can stop it but won't.
LOL, right its up to the Dems to stop Ryan from writing a horrible bill giving them nearly everything that they want.
Now we know why they are called political parties. No mater who you elect to congress IT'S PARTY TIME !!!!
We know why we are called tax payers. We pay for the party but aren't invited. I can't wait to celebrate congress automatic pay raise. Sorry all you stupid old people, like me, won't be getting a raise this year because the cost of living didn't go up at all. That is great news. Another celebration is in order. The party never stops here in the USA. No wonder people want to come here and destroy the place. They better hurry before we beat them to it.
Does anybody know if this bill has an attachment that quadruples the number of H-2B's? That is what I heard and it sounds natural that our government would push for it before another San Bernardino. But I don't know; just wondering?
"On Capitol Hill this week, just hours before they jet away for the holidays, the GOP-led Congress is going on a $680 billion spending spree — none of which will be paid for by budget cuts or other tax offsets. And all of which will be added to the national debt, according to budget watchdogs."
Lots of goodies in this bill, with absolutely no offsets--something they have demanded of the president and the Democrats at every turn. And the GOP continues the laughable pretense that they care about the debt.
And it's all the Dems fault. After all, they're in cahrge.
...oh wait...
