Congress gave final approval Thursday to a $1.1 trillion spending bill that eases the sharp budget cuts known at the sequester and guarantees that the nation will not endure another government shutdown until at least Oct. 1.
After three years of politically bruising and economically damaging battles over the budget, the bipartisan agreement to fund federal agencies through the rest of the fiscal year passed with little fanfare.

Another day, another disaster. They s love kicking the Tea Party to the curb.
“Eases sharp budget cuts” == “increases spending more than it would have already increased”
Please note, again, that Washington Post material must be excerpted at all times.
Well, of course they did. Why, how could they not? Obama would take out his pen or phone and make them obsolete had they not done so.
Last night Mark Levin implied that Boehner is being blackmailed. “You connect the dots.”
It’s always a possibility in our NSA age.

Levin has heavily implied this for the last few years.. Heck beck even surmised as much and even that screwball alex jones has said so....
It is almost an open secret around Washington...
John Roberts is also being Blackmailed over various things...
News like this almost makes me want to tell the tea party folk in the senate and the house to go on strike......
And not show up for the State of the Union...
Instead they should hold a separate “State of the Police State Oligarchy Oppressive state”
Meh, I don’t believe any of that. They are who they are, RINO and fairly liberal. There is nothing to suggest blackmail. They are just doing what liberal-lite does. It is no more than that. Plus, Boehner is not very smart.
Got it.....I thought I did. Sorry.
Hey, it’s all free money!
Another example of political corruption on display. More sad and disastrous days on the horizon for Americans and America.
until at least Oct. 1
something to save for the election
Those must be some young boys Boehner was with...
(Yes he is obviously being blackmailed)
LOL. Republicans will get blamed again if they don't pass some "continuing resolution."
I'm not putting my hopes on the GOP anymore, are you?
The name of the game in DC is blackmail.
A trillion here and a trillion there and pretty soon we’ll be talking about real money.
SOOOOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
SOOOOOO. SOOOOOO. SOOOOOOOOEEEEEEEE!!!
Its full trough time on K street!
How is it that this half-wit is Speaker of the House???
