Very pathetic. This is just subterfuge to cover that they gave Obama everything he wanted in their budget. Without a whimper.
Haven’t heard that before. Wonder why our reps have not said this to their constituents.
Every talking head is on board with the GOP. If they arent, they get no guests or inside info. They may throw a bone but every time the chips are down, they defend/cover for them.
When Pelosi took power years ago, Rush even admitted on air to carrying GOP water and Levin refuses to leave the party despite several comments of being an ‘inch’ away. I call it his galactic inch because it keeps getting bigger with every GOP capitulation to Barry.
Hannity is a waterboy of the first ‘water’.
Ultimately congress has more power over funding. Hussein can always veto, but in the case of a budget veto, he cuts off funding for all his other pet programs as well.
But this is an academic discussion in any case, because the gop congress is in full collaboration. The rhetoric is different, but the agenda is the same.
It would have made a difference then.
Now it's just showboating in the hope we will not decide to hang them.
Well that is why I never watch the shows. I was channel hopping and saw him and stopped. I quit watching them years ago when I found myself screaming at the tv. I’m much calmer now. ;)
“Best part is if strips funding for Planned Parenthood, Thank you God! “
I agree with that. Some elements, however, such as coverage for pre-conditions, I don’t want to see eliminated. My state had a similar provision years before Obamacare and it worked out OK. Premiums were a little higher than completely unregulated states but absolutely nothing like today. Would be just fine with me if my state went back to the way it was pre-Obamacare.
Pay attention. Everyday Trump entrenches himself and his family into our FR camp. He has created lifetime enemies by daring to skeer the scared cows of progressive liberatism. Is he a perfect conservative or American. No but I dare say neither are you or I or Rush Limbaugh.
Nobody is because we each have a bit of slightly different definition of what being conservative American is (largely we agree) and what we emphasis obviously has to do with what has happened or is going on in our own lives. I do think; however, Trump is an American, conservative entrepreur, leader, who now has placed it all on the line.
I used think Donald Trump was at best an ass, at worse a charlatan. The more I have learned I have come to believe Trump an American Patriot. I like Trump and no way I am not voting for him.
What a waste of time, how about defunding it
Dog — meet pony.
This sort of s*** just insults my intelligence.
Keep that thought. I prefer to be a skeptic about Trump due to his history
If Trump is the Republican nominee, not only will there not be a President Trump, there won't be a Republican Congress.
the congress sent you a message....... you want results, you send us a president
I hear much more, “Screw you, you are stupid.”
Yeah, that’s why he is proposing states lower their state line prohibitions on insurance companies competing nation-wide.
That’ll get us to single pay in say...... NEVER!
It will provide much more competition, lower rates, and an expansion of policies available.
I not surprised you haven’t heard this. It’s only been on the record for seven months now.
I agree they truly need something for P re-excisting conditions....that is a must. Let Planned Parenthood fund itself
Do they really think this empty gesture will do anything but tick us off further. Three weeks ago they could have defunded it.
