BOHICA: It's Congressional budget time

[Clocker]

It's deja vu all over again. A 2300 page bill with 24 hours to read and pass it. Or else the government will shut down. As if that is a bad thing.

- Record spending levels
- No wall/border security
- Obamacare intact
- Funds Planned Parenthood
- Sanctuary Cities funded
- Barely 24 hours to read a 2,300 page bill

This Omnibus is so far from what the forgotten men and women of America voted for. I will oppose it.

When you can't afford a prostitute,

VOTE REPUBLICAN.


No one left unscrewed as long as there is a GOP.


What a worthless bunch of losers.

A preliminary procedural vote was needed before the House could actually vote on the budget bill. Ryan needed help from Democrats to bring the bill to the floor.

The procedural vote passed 211-207. Only 25 House Republicans had enough spine to stand up to leadership and vote no.

The actual vote on the bill was 256-157, with 90 Republicans voting against it.
