The House of Representatives may vote on their budget reconciliation spending cuts package as early as Thursday. The package finds $50 billion in savings ($15 billion more than the Senate), but the outcome of the vote is uncertain.
The vote on the fiscally responsible savings bill has been pushed back now multiple times in order to better ascertain support for the measure. But as of today, there are still some Republicans whose position on cutting spending is unknown.
thanks for the information.
bump for assignment!!
Chris Smith represents Jersey City, an area that would normally be quite Demoratic. He is excellent on the social issues, and on protecting the military. He is voting as he has promised to vote. Nobody who could get elected to that seat is going to be a tightwad with tax money, I'm afraid. Chris Smith may noty win any awards for thriftiness, but he has a boatlaod of integrity and principle.
Nancy Johnson, on the other hand, is a complete RINO and embarrassment to the Republican Party. I would rather have a Dem in there. It doesn't help that her husband has performed abortions, a procedure that she wants performed and paid for by us at every opportunity.

Bad headaches. Reading the original format was bringing one on.
Sensenbrenner, F. James, Jr has been on record. He voted against one of the Katrina disaster funding bills.
No surprise my Congressman, the RINO poster boy, is on this list. I just fired off an email to him.
If the day comes that the Iowa Dems get a brain and decide to run someone to the right of Castro against him, he'll lose. Conservatives like me will notice litte if any difference in how we're (not) represented in the House.
Is there is nothing and has NEVER been anything conservative about this man.
Bob Inglis is the only one from a Red State...South Carolina.
What's his deal?
And, New Hampshire folks are usually fiscally conservative...what' their excuse?
Notice these losers can't deliver their states to the Republican candidates in elections for president or governor. They need to be replaced by real Republicans.
I really hate environmentalists, though. Nature fetishists know nothing about it. As my namesake says, I know that nature is smelly, rotten and generally unpleasant.
