Thread: Senate panel advances $47 BILLION bill to fund Homeland Security

No mention of what they hope we have forgotten. Funding Obamnesty is not mentioned here as excluded, so it is in. I think some republicans promised to stop it in funding for 2016, but if the committee is not fighting over it, it is not going to be defunded, IMO! This is all adding up to a tremendous disappointing election year for the republicans if they cannot deliver on promises with majority in both houses of Congress, what are they good for?

The House will have their version which will include the exclusions, then we'll have the same fight over again. Can the Senate produce 6 Democrats loyal to the American People, perhaps some Blue-Dog Democrats who still believe in our country? Maybe .... lets sure hope so, but that won't happen until the House version of the bill comes out of the House and goes to the Senate.

America's legislating is becoming so convolutely compounded that I need a staff to keep me informed. Retired it should be easy to keep up. Nope, no way, I'm not admitting to slowing down, no way! I said no way!!

Hey, don't we have a bunch of congress people that are my elders? How many do they have on staff?

Loyalty has no age limit! Keep up the good fight, kevinsdad! We need you, our country needs you, our citizens need you at full-speed ahead! And yes, there are a bunch of congresscritters older than you and me a whole bunch of us.
