Breaking: Omnibus passes House 316-113 (Majority of GOP voted yes)
Hot Air ^ | December 18, 2015 | Ed Morrissey

Posted on 12/18/2015 7:26:48 AM PST by C19fan

It’s terrible for a number of reasons, but it’s on the way to the Senate anyway. A bipartisan vote closes out the House effort on the FY2016 budget, with the same kind of bloated and opaque legislation that Republicans were supposed to stop supporting:

The House has passed a $1.14 trillion spending bill to fund the government through next September.

It’s a peaceful end in the House to a yearlong struggle over the budget, taxes, and Republican demands of President Barack Obama. …

Senators are expected vote on the budget measure in combination with a year-end tax plan that gives breaks to working families and a wide variety of business interests.

Passing legislation where 39% of your party is against it and you are the majority party speaks volumes about how bad the legislation is and how tone deaf the GOPe is.

90% (of those voting) of the Dems voted for the bill while 39% of the Reps voted against it. What's wrong with this picture?

113x2 = 226

It is true that a majority of our republican representatives voted FOR a bill that funds planned parenthood, funds Iranian nukes, funds foreigners taking American jobs, funds bringing terrorists into our country, and funds a host of other things that would cause most Americans to vomit.

Uniparty has 316 members.

Conservative Party has 113 (or less)

Paul Ryan needs to go. We should start hitting Congress again to dump him, not just conservative wing, all of Congress.

536 should be in prison and their assets seized. We were not born to be debt slaves to criminals.

I checked on mine (Justin Amash), almost as an afterthought because he’s always is on top of stuff like this. I never have to worry about his votes, which is nice.

He’s been fighting this thing tooth and nail.

I have no representation in government. As a Conservative, I have no representation. Makes me wonder why I must pay taxes, “No Taxation without Representation.” Who represents me? John McLame? Lindsay Grahamnesty?

I have no representation in today’s government.

Well, the only time the GOP is fiscally, or otherwise, conservative is when its in the minority.

Fools and traitors who are purposefully enslaving their own children and grandchildren with unpayable debt and destruction by foreign invaders. They are trampling and mocking the Founder's vision.

It passed with majority Democrat support: 166 Dems 150 Rs.
It’s another Dem budget bill, just like Boehner’s.

“Obviously the dem is not worse and the evil is not lesser..”

If one looks at this all-inclusively, the Republican leaders are guilty of outright TREASON.

The least they could have done is put in one sentence:

18 USC 922 (o) is hearby repealed.

Yup. But since we collectively refused to elect principled people and chose liberals to win like Charlie sheen, there is no one there to ‘hold their feet to the fire’.

The dirty rat bastards could give a crap about Americans.

The tax slaves will do as they're told. So get away from the computer and get back to work you slacker. Other people are getting hungry.

The NO votes are not relevant to me, the 236 House Republicans who installed Paul Ryan as Speaker with their YES votes are the litmus test.

They should all go and never receive our votes in any election under any circumstances again.
