What is new? You have a badly devided party. You have about 30% socialist appeasers and 70% conservatives . It is not going to work with leftist leaders. It is never going to work in the next election. Many millions are fed up!!
By the way, The Republican proposed budget allows a half billion dollar deficit!! You can’t make that up. The budget sould be reduced NOT INCREASED. Geeese
“both Boehner and House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Paul Ryan ... hope to use the legislation to jam the Senate with the help of Pelosi.”

Isn't Cruz' way the Freeper way?
Here is MY fix: Repeal Medicare. Replace it with nothing. Pass the savings back to the taxpayers and let people take care of themselves!
This just in.
The Great secret has been exposed.
Nancy Pelosi is Boehner’s Mother.
Obamacare made this problem worse.
But they shouldn’t have just thrown money at it.
