I agree, if for no other reason than if Boner likes the plan than we should be suspicious; if King, Sessions and respected others see it as reasonable then so be it.
I cannot help being suspicious of anything the republican leadership approves of, on the leadership trust level the republican leaders are at -5 with me and the democrats at -6.
If I recall correctly, Cruz wants to pass a CR until the next Congress is in place and then fund the government department by department, which would then give the Reps the ability to affect Obamacare, the EPA, IRS, etc. along with amnesty. As a result, the vast majority of the government would be funded prior to the anticipated fights on these other issues.
“I would like to hear from Steve King and Jeff Sessions before giving this plan a thumbs up.”
Rep King’s staffer said that this is just a “first run” of various versions being presented, or worked up.
He said that it is something that Rep King can/will support, as long as the DHS funding is appropriated month to month (which this version of the plan seems to do). He said that the MAJORITY of the Republican Reps overwhelmingly want the DHS month to month funding, in what ever CR is passed...and feels confident any final bill will be styled that way.
Praying he’s right ;-)
I have trust in Cruz, Lee and Paul to some extent in the Senate and only a handful in the House like Massie of Kentucky and Amash of Michigan.....95 percent of the GOP elected officials fake conservatism or repudiate it in some cases to win elections.....
