ime running short, Republicans and Democrats agreed Tuesday on a $1.1 trillion spending bill to avoid a government shutdown and delay a politically-charged struggle over President Barack Obama's new immigration policy until the new year.
The compromise will permit virtually the entire government to operate normally through the Sept. 30 end of the fiscal year, with the exception of the Department of Homeland Security.
Funds for that one agency will run out again in late winter. That will give Republicans an opportunity to try to use the expiration as leverage to force Obama to roll back a decision that will suspend the threat of deportation for an estimated 4 million immigrants living in the country illegally.

But but but they had to. No other option.
Not even the ones boner and pee wee Prebuis said they would use.
See their hands are tied until we vote for Willard or jeb and do the same thing....
Hey wait. I’ve seen this movie before. It was called Compassionate Conservative. Authored by Jorge Delano Arbusto, promoted by RINO herd leader Karl Rove- the fraudulent Bastard.

You are aware that those elected in November 2014 will NOT be sworn in until January, 2015?? This is still the Democrat Congress with Harry Reid until then.
assholes ... every one of ‘em.
The House has been in Republican hands for a while.
Your lie is getting tiresome.
/johnny
In case you we out getting stoned in high school during government class, appropriations START in the house.
We have the clout to walk up in their faces and dare them to hit us.
/johnny
No.... more.... RINOs.
Congress = Senate...I would have thought I did not have to correct that since I said ‘HARRY REID”...you are an a$$&)le!
Don’t ever contact me again buzzhead, you are the troll! DEMOCRATIC ZERO SNIFFER!
And abortions.
Appropriations=spending
For Low information apologist RINOs
The House had to agree to this. The Republican house.
Love the personal attack. It shows the real you.
/johnny
Congress=Senate...sorry.
Not when it comes to voting yet.
Are you brain dead.
They could have just extended this bill just to January instead of September
to give the NEW congress a say.
In fact, they could have done this bill months ago.
Whoever you are, I feel for you. When the SHTF, you and those that think like
you will be the first to go. You have no fight or survival Instict.
Geez....did Bonehead post this “give 0bola whatever he wants” bill, like he promised, so we’d have 3 days to see what’s “in the flipping bill”?
It is as I expected. No surprise here. Unless we get a president with brass balls in 2016, nothing much will change.
But will conservatives unite behind ONE primary candidate in 2016 or will it be another 2012 style Ricky-Newt brawl to the finish clearing the path for another Romney clone (Jeb or Chris)?
Of course they do idiot.
Go gaze at your navel, surrender monkey.
I wanted 50 49 and 1 to tie it all up, let Slow-Joe break the ties, it doesn't matter they screwed us every which way but Sunday.
Why the Hell did I even vote this November.
Maybe the 4 Million who didn't vote for Romney were flippin' way ahead of the Curve, they told the RNC-E-GOP-Rovian-KStreet-Chamber of Commerce Cabal up yours in a more polite fashion than I would have.
They Divorced us a long time ago, when they heck do we get the brains to finally move out....
