You’d never know it by it’s posters would you.

Not by what I've seen lately, no. Excited about funding Homeland Security AND chomping @ the bit to vote for Romney again? Is this what's called 'progress'?

RE: So Who are the 24 plus -Rino’s ?

The House adopted an amendment Wednesday to freeze a 2012 program allowing illegal immigrants who came to the U.S. as children to apply for work permits.

Passage fell largely along party lines by a vote of 218-209. But 26 Republicans, many of whom represent districts with large minority populations, voted against the amendment.

Adoption of the amendment onto a $40 billion base funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security makes it unlikely to pass in the Senate, where it will need 60 votes to advance.

The 26 Republicans who voted against the amendment were:

Reps. Mark Amodei (Nev.)
Mike Coffman (Colo.)
Ryan Costello (Pa.)
Carlos Curbelo (Fla.)
Jeff Denham (Fla.)
Charlie Dent (Pa.)
Mario Diaz-Balart (Fla.)
Bob Dold (Ill.)
Renee Ellmers (N.C.)
Chris Gibson (N.Y.)
Richard Hanna (N.Y.)
Cresent Hardy (Nev.)
Joe Heck (Nev.)
John Katko (N.Y.)
Peter King (N.Y.)
Adam Kinzinger (Ill.)
Frank LoBiondo (N.J.)
Tom MacArthur (N.J.)
Martha McSally (Ariz.)
Patrick Meehan (Pa.)
Devin Nunes (Calif.)
Dave Reichert (Wash.)
Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (Fla.)
Chris Smith (N.J.)
Fred Upton (Mich.)
David Valadao (Calif.)

Edit to add, I only know two of the 26 who voted against the measure.

PETER KING of NY (who is from my neck of the woods and who absolutely hates Ted Cruz’s guts )

and

FRED UPTON of Michigan ( uncle of the supermodel Kate Upton ).

0 democrat congressmen voted to defund Obama’s executive amnesty

Does that scare anyone? that 100%, ALL , every single democrat politician voted to uphold Obama’s unconstitutional grab of power that negates separation of power .

You would think at least 1 democrat would try to uphold the constitution. NO. every single democrat congressman just violated their oath to uphold the Constitution.
All democrats also voted for obamacare

These are just 2 examples. but come on people do you see the threat that a party can be this evil this brainwashed to vote 100% for tyranny when we live in a free country. How stupid and brainwashed does a democrat have to be . you'd think they would at least want to hold on to some power in Congress but instead they give up willingly to a socialist dictator Obama. every democrat and every one who voted for this tyranny and amnesty is a traitor to America and the Constitution:can anyone dispute this?

We are in struggle for our lives against a marxist cult that can get every single one of its members to vote for such evil as a dictator Obama grabbing power and turning a once free country into a dictatorship.

How charming.

First vote from Little Ms. Mini-McCain McSally is a vote for immigration anarchy and surrender.

She claims to be for “Border Security”. Obviously not.

As I see this, it is not the entire budget but a small portion of a budget to fund the homeland security department.

Unlike the last two partial government shutdowns, which for some reason or other were always blamed on the GOP, this withholding of some of the homeland security funding will likely be seen as a politically positive message for the GOP which will be supported by the public.

Thus, I am much more positive about how this is going to play out compared to most on this board.

Well, maybe the Blue Fairy eventually did answer the Kid in AI too and make him a real boy, but since the movie ended, we’ll never know.

I will applaud Boehner at the moment, but I believe this will die in the Senate with the losers there. Ideally, this would head to the president’s desk, where he will cast his veto against the American people.

Well isn’t that the game that never ends? The house makes a big show knowing the senate will kill whatever sent to them, Barry gets protected and his agenda advances and the House then pontificates because they tried ‘real hard’ but their hands are tied?

I don’t see a lot to applaud here.

I'm more concerned about the # of Republicans that voted FOR funding Homeland Security. I thought the pubbies were the party of Freedom? Apparently not.

How stupid and brainwashed does a democrat have to be .

About as stupid and brainwashed as the average Republican voter these days, apparently.

” With GOP senators like Rubio working or more H1 visas for tech workers and leadership in the House working on new immigration “reform” this vote is all for show.” 100% con job

YEP, and when the video camera is turned off and put away, these same D's and R's gleefully retire to the nearest "Morton Steak House" type of restaurant for some joking and laughing....joking and laughing at us stupid U.S . voters, and tax payers. The joke is on us, for now.

This bill is to defund amnesty.

0 democrats voted to defund amnesty and so uphold Obama’s unconstitutional amnesty and grab of power

Around 90% of Republicans had to vote to defund amnesty here to pass this bill in the House as all democrats voted against. that's not good enough for you? what is? 91%? What percentage of a political group voting the right way is good enough for you ? you do realize that in this media created false reality you'll never get 100% of a party to vote against big government. what's scary is that the marxists do get 100% of democrats to vote for socialism for this Obama dictatorial action and for Obamacare. you do realize democrats want to take your guns, freedom,property don't you . why are you for a government bureaucrat making decisions for you?
