Breaking: Omnibus passes House 316-113 (Majority of GOP voted yes)
Hot Air ^ | December 18, 2015 | Ed Morrissey

Posted on 12/18/2015 7:26:48 AM PST by C19fan

It’s terrible for a number of reasons, but it’s on the way to the Senate anyway. A bipartisan vote closes out the House effort on the FY2016 budget, with the same kind of bloated and opaque legislation that Republicans were supposed to stop supporting:

The House has passed a $1.14 trillion spending bill to fund the government through next September.

It’s a peaceful end in the House to a yearlong struggle over the budget, taxes, and Republican demands of President Barack Obama. …

Senators are expected vote on the budget measure in combination with a year-end tax plan that gives breaks to working families and a wide variety of business interests.

Proving that in order to defeat the Uniparty, we must first fight our way through the GOPe / RINO faction of the Uniparty.

You won’t get bedrock Christian values with Trump. There may be some positives with Trump (though not nearly enough to sway me in his direction) but a return to bedrock Christian values isn’t one of them.

. "A majority of House Republicans voted for the measure, which fully funds Obama’s refugee resettlement operation, all Mideast immigration programs, Sanctuary Cities, Obama’s continued executive amnesty for DREAMers, and the resettlement of illegal aliens within the U.S. interior." (Brietart)

Republicans said if we only gave them the house.......
Then they said if we only gave them the house and the senate......
Now they're saying if we only give them the house, the senate, and the presidency they'd listen to us.

Chuck Fleischmann RINO-TN from Corker country Chattanooga sold out. I think he was the only Tennessee GOP Congressman to vote for it. I hope someone in the northern part of my district runs in his place and takes it away from the Chattanooga Liberal RINO’s. {not aimed at FREEPERS from there just the political reality that Chattanooga is RINO Country}

I am thoroughly disgusted. This crap is one reason I support Donald Trump.

Yeah. Electing a Republican politician doesn't seem very promising. It's time Americans get rid of the Washington insiders and start over.

The pubbies had to vote for whatever the rats wanted as the price for getting their precious H-1b Visa quota quadrupled so they could finally pay off the donor base.

I share your frustration, but supporting a Democrat won't help.


Paul Ryan for President! Woo! Woo!

I don’t see Paul Ryan lying. I feel sorry for him. He did not want the job and they forced it on him. If you have to work in a job you don’t want because nobody else will step up to the plate, do you do the best job you can? Most don’t. The poor guy just wanted to be a House Member not the leader. It’s shame that nobody else had the guts to take the job.

The DemocRats got everything they wanted in the deal while offering crumbs to the RINOs.

We got 640 billion in tax cuts. The Democrats got 500 billion in whatever. See the problem with your statement?

Those tax cuts are over ten years. $1.6 billion to resettle illegal aliens, full funding for Obamacare and Planned Parenthood, and on and on.

You can hardly argue that Bed Rock Christian Values have been a good indicator as Jimmuh Carter was so evangelical his sister was a faith healer.

Trump will certainly do nothing to harm Christians, by elevating Islam.

Fools and traitors who are purposefully enslaving their own children and grandchildren with unpayable debt and destruction by foreign invaders

Guess again.

Their children and grandchildren will still be living off the trust funds setup with the bribes they are currently receiving. They will be using the foreign invaders as slave labor in their corporations and as foot soldiers to guard their wealth from our children and grandchildren.

Don't worry about their children. They will be just fine.

Glad to see that both Congressman Adrian Smith (R-NE) and Congressman Jeff Fortenberry (R-NE)are on the “Nay” list ...

Of course, that sniveling ass-wipe douche bag, Brad Ashford (D-NE) voted “Yea” ... He’s symptomatic of the welfare sluts and dirt-bag minions now infesting the eastern border of Nebraska. Next time the Missouri River floods, perhaps it will drown the majority of these useless eaters.

Before they can be the oppositional party, they have to actually oppose something....

Right now, I will settle for the man who I KNOW will kick the living crap out of the establishment ruling class, and mercilessly cut off their ball sacks. I neither need nor want a “holy roller” in the driver’s seat.

We need a General George S. Patton in command.
We do not need a born-again boot licker.

We are at war. Spineless, effeminate, “Christian” do-gooders - who insist on “turning the other cheek” no matter how badly this country is being screwed - need not apply for the job.
