That’s a fairly traditional, targeted approach to make a policy point!

OH OH hes off the reservation.

As Obies desperation grows and he becomes ever more crazy and HOSTILE Mr Levin may wish to hire a full staff of private security

The beauty of it is that the House doesn’t even have to run it by the Senate or the President. The House controls the purse strings.

This is something Boehner doesn’t seem to grasp.

Don’t like Obamacare, end it. End it now!

and when Obama refuses to sign any bill with such a provision added... then what happens?

oh that's right, the government shuts down!

you see, the president can FORCE a shutdown by simply refusing to sign ANYTHING that doesn't meet with his 100% approval!

The only thing stopping him... US!!! Obola MUST get the blame for the shutdown!!! Then and only then will he feel the pressure to relent.

How exactly is one part of the gov't NOT paying another part of the gov't supposed to prevent illegals from streaming in or staying?

This seems to be a non-solution. We have defacto amnesty now by not deporting any illegals. How can withholding funds stop Dumbo from NOT deporting illegals?

In addition, the Republican leadership are a bunch of bxxxless wonders. I do believe we are in for a rough 2 years; they won't have the guts to stop the dictator from advancing his fascist agenda.

If Obama decrees that certain illegals will not be deported how do you withhold money to prevent that?

It doesn’t cost anything for the government to NOT deport illegals.

If the illegals have been living here for some time without being deported and Obama says he isn’t going to deport them now. essentially nothing changes as far as government action or inaction goes.

Why can’t John Boehner, whose House must draw up the next Budget, publicly explain to Obama and the American people that it’s impossible to create a budget for the following year unless Congress knows how much the government will be spending — and that it cannot know that figure until Obama clearly states whether he intends to grant Executive Amnesty to 6 million illegal aliens — an extremely expensive budget item — or not?

Since no previous president has ever threatened an extremely expensive, unconstitutional Executive Action, Congress is in uncharted territory here. So Mr. Boehner must step forward and set a precedent of demanding Obama state his intentions before passing a budget.

The power of the purse is one of the most important tools congress can use to oppose tyranny.

Too bad Johnny Bonehead is such a golf playing, oranged face wuss.

well after the 1986 amnesty was passed as a compromise between amnesty and law enforcement, Congress did not fund enforcement to near the extent promised or needed. payback is a witch.

But since they won’t with hold funding, this is all moot.

Now go pay your taxes - someone still has to obey our laws. :)
