This is McConnell-Ryan (Boehner)’s face saving trick. They gave Obama all the funds he asked for. then they pass this crap to ask Obama to not spend the funds they gave him. Of course he will veto it.
They play the public for fools. It won’t work.
This is not the gov we deserve. It certainly isn't the one we vote for, judging by the DC Slimes campaign promises.
Ryan is a traitor. Everyone who voted for him as Speaker is an enabler. This vote is just a vote to confirm their complicity. Grrrr..........
“We owe it to the American people to take our best shot at repealing Obamacare, and that’s what we’ll do next week,” Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R-Mo.)
Do I have to guess how she voted on Ryan’s ‘it was so bad I HAD to pass it’ capitulation.
Next up: GOP whom vote NO on floor, after voting YEA in conference, wish to show the base how staunchly they guard their ‘small govt’ credo.
They need to sit down and shut up. Save your lies for your next campaign.
the message is, when the new effort is rebuffed in the senate with less than 60 votes, or vetoes by Obama, the message is provide a majority f 60 votes in the senate and a president
politics is the art of the possible. at present, repeal is not possible
They are lying.
Obama Veto Assured!
I honestly feel like this boy as he watches the GOPe dance their shenanigans.

I can’t stand most of the Republicans. Not all. Jeff Sessions should be headed to President Trump’s Cabinet.
They’ve funded it more times than once.
We see through the shell game.
It will take Ted Cruz in the White House to finally get this job done. Lord knows Donald “Canadian-style single-payer” Trump won’t.

ObamaCare Extended To Policing Gun Ownership
BY THOMAS MCARDLE
11:09 AM ET
“If you like your gun, you can keep your gun” is definitely not anything you’ll be hearing from President Obama soon.
You may never have thought that a simple visit to the doctor could lead to the FBI breathing down your neck, but the president’s new executive actions on gun control could lead to just that, mortally wounding the long-established presumption of doctor-patient confidentiality.
Obama’s directives apparently trump long-standing federal rules preventing doctors from disclosing mental health matters. Now the executive branch will “expressly permit certain HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996) covered entities to disclose to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) the identities of individuals who are subject to a Federal ‘mental health prohibitor’ that disqualifies them from shipping, transporting, possessing or receiving a firearm.”
Currently, if a doctor discloses a patient’s private information without that patient’s authorization, the physician could be sued for malpractice or invasion of privacy. The president now apparently wants violating that confidential bond to be treated as an act that promotes public safety.
And the question of “mental health” is entirely subjective. If you tell your doctor you woke up Monday morning feeling like killing yourself, or that your spouse made you mad enough to reach for your hunting rifle, will that warrant a call to the FBI? Will a federal SWAT team then pounce, just in case you have a gun or two in the house? Such law enforcement overreach is by no means an outlandish scenario.
The ObamaCare database, it turns out, was only the beginning of this administration’s violations of the medical privacy of Americans. Now doctors are set to be enlisted in the nation’s federal gun police.
