Where the F is any of this money we don't have coming from?
Why not put a balanced budget amendment forward and let people vote on that for the record.
Just sayin’
Ill keep posting these lists til the cows come home ...

Whos Funding the Stealth PACs?

(Rove) is also working with former Republican National Committee Chairman Ed Gillespie to build a network of conservative groups rivaling the Republican National Committee in influence.
Insiders, outsiders
Inside the White House, where Rove once roamed, U.S. Trade Representative Ron Kirk, a former Dallas mayor and Texas secretary of state, is the solitary Cabinet-level Texan.
On Democrat-dominated Capitol Hill, Texas lopsided Republican delegation is at a disadvantage. Rep. Chet Edwards, D-Waco, the only House Appropriations Subcommittee chair from the state, has become a bipartisan champion for Texas projects, from military construction to medical research.
Edwards has worked closely with Republican Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison of Dallas, who managed to help Texas win $1.2 billion in federal earmarks last year despite serving in the minority party. The senior senator says her goal is to work behind the scenes and put together coalitions and alliances to get things done in a very tough legislative atmosphere.
Two other Texas lawmakers have become influential players because of their national, not state, portfolios. Sen. John Cornyn of San Antonio heads up the GOPs Senate campaign committee, while Dallas Rep. Pete Sessions directs the House Republicans committee.
Sen. Cornyn is building a power base that will likely serve Texas in the long run, said George Edwards, a political scientist at Texas A&M.

Gingrich Joins Cantors Effort To Remake GOP
This economy is in shambles. In my town, all three car dealers (even the Ford dealer) are down over 50% stock, even 90% for the "Government Motors" ones. The local big tractor sales place closed (all the inventory sold at auction). Gas is up, Walmart has more EBT card users than cash and credit card combined. Food prices are skyrocketing, housing starts everywhere are at historical lows and on and on and on-fricking-on. And these quisling motherf@ckers are telling us this?
I was born in 1950, probably at the height of America's power and standing. The country I had then is no more, nor will ever be again. It is lost. It is lost to benefit-seeking immigrants, illegals, communinists, liberals, Muslims, the truly slothful and lazy among us, and every other section of the world that wants to stomp it dead forever. Folks, we are about to enter the American Era of the Weimar Republic of the 30s, and our President is doing everything he can to hasten it along with the willing help of what our own representatives call themselves -Conservatives.....BE You DOUBLE EL SHIT!
I C.
Now come back here and tell me what you REALLY think about it, in NO uncertain terms!!!
What is the status NOW?
Wasting your time.
McCarthy is an absolute RINO. He was part of the liberal cabal that shut Republicans out of the the budgeting process in the California legislature. He and Schwarzeenegger, in cooperation with Democrat, legislative leaders, ramped up spending until the state of California is now technically bankrupt.
Shut it down! That may be the only way to draw the Lying Stream Media into broadcasting the impasse. Four billion here and 6 billion there, they can hide that. The imposter in the white hut can then at election time claim that the 'savings' came from his administration. Shut it down if need be. Point at the rats failure to have a budget when they were required to have one!
How much longer are Conservatives going to delude themselves into thinking the OP(formerly the GOP) will acquiesce to conservative principles? They never had any intention of doing so! They simply want to string along Tea Partiers in order to hijack the movement. The OP is merely one wing of the socialist Republicrat party. The only effective method to restore the conservative, limited government principles in the Constitution is by forming a second party.
They already passed the 3-week CR. I heard nothing about defunding the automatic Obamaocare funding in the CR.
Exactly. Screaminsunshine may be right that they're a "bunch of pussys," but it's up to US to show them how to mean business.
If we don't, we're the bunch their bunch represents.
I keep vacillating between thinking that these guys have something else up their sleeves... and that their heads are so far up their butts that those lumps their throats are their noses.
Then it hits me: THEY’RE TOO FREAKIN’ STUPID TO HAVE ANYTHING UP THEIR SLEEVES.
We
Are
Screwed
That applies to way too many subjects these days.
Thanks for the ping, waspman. My blood is boilin'
Republican leaders in the house and senate are socialists and support the funding of the HC bill just as they aided in it’s passage by not requiring it to be read into the record.
And to get out of committee a bill needs two votes from the minority party. The leadership could have replaced those two members with two who weren’t socialists.
Mark my words, congress even with all republicans and the corrupt SCOTUS will stop this bill.

Defund or resign.
IT SHOULD BECOME ESSENTIAL That we set up a Tea Party challenger to Cantor.
HE MUST GO.
My guy’s not on that list (Frelyinghuysen - R - NJ... “R” stands for RINO).
And to think that, if I’d moved 1/8 of a mile farther north, Garrett (who IS on the list) would be my Congressman.
ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH!!!
OK. Frelinghuysen isn’t a hard-core RINO, but he is certainly one of the “Go Along to Get Along” bunch.
