DHS protects copyright and trademarks now. No way the Democrats will turn their back on Big Hollywood.
That won’t be long. Boner has wanted to fold since last August.
Democrat Party versus America
Again
How about we shut the whole damn thing down? Then maybe people (at least some) will see that they CAN survive without the gubmint holding their hands.
I wish I was confident that Boehner will stand fast.
He should tell them to pound sand.
Funding the illegal amnesty for illegal aliens after it was found to be illegal by a federal judge is just plain stupid.
Owebowmao will go back into court saying, “See, Congress approves by funding this”.
Demonrat minority in senate seems to wield more power than the Republican minority ever could muster.
Time for the tar and feathers!
What is the point of controlling Congress if the cowards won’t stand up and they get pushed around by a small minority ?
Democrats still run the show.
> Top Democrats said Feb. 23 they will hold the homeland security budget hostage until the GOP’s House caucus agrees to quit its popular anti-amnesty efforts.
Its popular because no one wants amnesty except illegals, 0, lefties, big business, and Soros. The rest of the country (a lot larger percentage) know they wil have to foot the bill and that it will destroy their country.
“Democrats: We’ll Block DHS Funds Until Boehner Surrenders”
If Boehner had a spine, his response would be:
“Boehner: We’ll Continue to Fully Fund DHS Without Obummer’s Illegal Amnesty Until the Dims Surrender”
Bob Dole did the same thing to Newt in the 95 shutdown. At least Newt was trying to win. Boehner was never in favor of this fight, he just wants to put on a decent show before funding illegal executive amnesty.
Hell, the Demonrat minority in the Senate wields more power than the Republican majority can muster.
We need a MASSIVE movement that stops paying taxes. Let them bleed to death.
I predict a temporary funding through March as a wait and see how the Court Appeals go. If the TX Judge and the 5th Circuit deny the Administrations request for a Stay of the Jusge’s order, that will mean an appeal will be filed in the 5th Circuit that will probably take 8-9 months to resolve. That takes us through the remainder of the current FY which ends 30 Sep 2015, If the 5th Circuit denies the appeal (expected) it then goes to SCOTUS which could take us well into 2016. Meanwhile, Congress can fund DHS. One other scenario is that the Justice Dept decides to by-pass the 5th Circuit and go direct to SCOTUS, but they likely would kick it back to the 5th which would further delay any implementation. Keep an eye on this as the action is with the Courts and not the Congress.
I agree shut it down, but when I said the same thing earlier some fellow FR SCREAMED that it means the Air Traffic Controllers and Military would be shut down. Tried to EXPLAIN to them that the military and air traffic controllers would not be shut down. All the Democrats want as the minrioty is to show that they still call the shots. Unfortunately the useless repubs will fold like a house of cards in a 30 mph windstorm.
Their "secret:" Ruthlessness!
