Let's see, things to do today: #1. Defund the DHS. check.
AFTER the RATS and the GOP-e went after Lee,Cruz, and Paul for the "disastrous Government shut down" last fall, there will never ever be another DEFUNDING attempt by the GOP. The GOP-e will never again attempt to defund any part of an ever growing Fed Leviathan. The GOP is running so scared that IMHO they will lose the US House in Nov 2014 and have no chance of taking back the Senate. Forget 2016 as Obama is going to finish his TRANSFORMATION of the USA in 2015-2016.
As Mark Levin is fond of saying "The US Government shuts down for two days every week and no on notices. On Holidays they are closed for three days".
