GOP Spending Bill Gives Nearly $1 Billion To Aid Border Migrants
Dailycaller ^

Posted on 12/09/2014 8:53:08 AM PST by navysealdad

The GOP’s draft 2015 “omnibus” spending bill reportedly includes $948 million to help poor and unskilled Central American migrants establish themselves in the United States, but includes no effective restrictions on President Barack Obama’s plan to provide work permits and tax payments to millions of resident illegal immigrants.

That new spending works out to $16,928 for each of the 56,000 youths, young adults and children who crossed the border during the 12 months up to October 2014.

"You look at all the protests over Ferguson and Garner and wonder what it accomplishes, yet, their voices have been heard by the Dept. of justice and the police training is supposedly going to be re-vamped. Then you think what would happen if us conservatives did the same thing. Seeing as we seem to have nobody in power that truly represents US I’d bet not much. I guess we are well and truly f***ed."

Until and unless the GOP fear conservatives more than they do the rabble rousers like Sharpton and Obama, there will not be progress. The left can put bodies in the street, mount marches on Washington and conservatives do...? Boehner and McConnell don't worry about conservatives with torches and pitch forks surrounding their own houses and the White House. That has to change.

All the scared Democrats who are shifting to Republicans are going to be surprised how much the Republicans are like the party they just left.

We are a one party country, we have the Democrats and the Democrat-lites. There is no Republican party.

I’ve been saying that for years, like my brother said the Republican party hasn’t existed since 1989.

I always ask myself when something like this happens: Are they stupid or evil? It used to be assumed the GOP was stupid and the DNC, evil. Not anymore. Both parties are evil in that they are out to destroy the Nation and harm Americans.

” What surprises me is Conservatives will turn up and vote for the GOP anyway. “

Not all conservatives have “street brains”.

These worthless horse butts are terrified of Obama shutting down the government, so they cave in and give away next years leverage.

The cowards kicked the can down the street. It is sickening.

Maybe eventually ;)

I’ve been planning our Harden Hollow (our version of Galt’s Gulch) for 7 years now, putting every penny aside that wasn’t spent on ammo and food storage. It’s still a bit premature, since I’d like to have more money saved. But I found out if you have your own business, you can max out your 401k contributions off the top, so we plan on starting two small businesses and see how they do. We’ll be spending from savings but adding to 401ks, so hopefully our net stays the same. But best of all, we can control our taxable income.

Hopefully many more do the same and starve the beast.

They are traitors.

I knew we were used and nothing would change when Boehner and McConnell were voted in as leaders without any opposition.

Apparently the congressmen learned absolutely nothing from the election results.
