2,009-Page, $1,205,146,000,000 Republican Spending Deal Allows Funding of Planned Parenthood
CNS ^ | December 16, 2015 | Terence P. Jeffrey

The 2,009 page fiscal 2016 spending deal that the Republican House leadership released today authorizes $1,205,146,000,000 in federal outlays between now and the end of fiscal 2016, according to the Congressional Budget Office, and it does not prohibit funding of Planned Parenthood, according to the House Appropriations Committee.

The spending bill is paired with a separate 233-page tax bill.

“We are maintaining all of our pro-life protections, including the Hyde Amendment, and we are making cuts to the UNFPA program,” House Speaker Paul Ryan said of the omnibus spending bill at a press conference today.

Planned Parenthood is the nation’s top abortion provider. In its latest annual report (2013-2014), it said that it did 327,653 abortions in fiscal 2013 (which ended on Sept. 30, 2013), and that in the year that ended on June 30, 2014, it received $528.4 million in government health services grants and reimbursements.

“Look in divided government, you don’t get everything that you want,” Ryan said at his press conference. “Republicans didn’t get all that we wanted. Democrats didn’t get all that they wanted. This is a bipartisan compromise. It is a bicameral compromise. And I understand that some people don’t like some of the aspects of this. But that is the compromise that we have. And I do believe that we will have bipartisan votes on both of these bills.”

In its analysis of H.R. 2029—“The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2016”—the CBO said that changes in law that will be made by the bill will have the net effect of increasing the federal deficit by $57.6 billion in the ten-year period from fiscal 2016 through fiscal 2025.

but paul krugman (is that his name,, that @#$@#$ from the NY Times?) says debt is just GREAT.

and he’s won prizes for economics so he must be right!!!

I mean, a 40k credit card debt is MUCH better than say, 3k. It just makes sense s/

Billions for Planned Murderhood, illegal alien resettlement and amnesty, unrestricted welfare and food stamps, Muslim Syrian refugee resettlement and welfare forever, not to mention too many green, union, Obama Care continuation and financing, and just plain too many Democrat slush funds and paybacks to count - and all done without a real budget process. What's not to like about this wildly out of control spending spree on borrowed money?

On the bright side, at least the GOP-e didn't allow the government to be "shut down". Then the media, the Liberals, and the Gibsmedats would be mad at them too!

And that’s when you need to pay interest only and get another 40k credit card.

Traitors to the end! Who’s suprised!

Yup... Uniparty. No doubts anymore. You Trumpies-—if Trump is made president, he had better come through, he had better rip down this gawd-awful budget we have, he had better tear out the enablers and slinking skunkbags and bring this country back to a sensible level.

Yeah, I’m putting a lot on his shoulders, but that’s what needs to be done... with any potential Republican president.

This is what happens when the US dollar is the reserve currency of the world, where the politicians can print money, issue trillions of debt, finance the big welfare state and finance wars.

This country does not deserve to have the reserve currency of the world anymore. The US dollar finances injustice, war, theft and pathology world wide.

RINO’s must be feathering their collective nests because they know the gravy train’s running out of gas.

The RINO’s must go, or this will just keep happening. We all knew Paul Ryan would do this to us.
