Ryan-Murray committee reaches budget deal

[HelenaHandbag]

Horrible deal.

It claims to cut $23 billion over 10 years, with no real enforcement teeth for future congresses.

That's right, $2.3 billion each year, out of a $3.5 TRILLION (and growing) annual federal budget. That's not timid, that's cowardly.

It also ends the rather inconsequential sequester. It's well known that the democrats hate the sequester. But the dirty little secret is that the establishment neoconservative also GOP hates it, chiefly because it cuts into their favorite welfare program; military spending.

Bad as running the government for CR-to-CR is, this "deal" is even worse.

 

[HelenaHandbag]

When Boehner with Paul Ryan by his side calling out Heritage, FreedomWorks, etc., for criticizing the deal before they even knew what was in it is the John Boehner that I know and want as Speaker of the House.

Pure crap.

Boehner operatives leaked the details of that parking lot job on the American taxpayer las week.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Tough, Helena, this bill is going to pass and then we are going after the far right reactionaries in the primaries. We will find out who has the numbers. When Boehner and Ryan are called liberals, you know the far right are frothing and foaming.

 

[Dot Com]

looks like Boehner/Ryan cut the teapartiers off at the knees/threw them under the bus. They need to split form the party if they have any convictions

The conservative Republican Study Committee, the bastion of right-wing strategy on Capitol Hill, has fired its longtime executive director Paul Teller, accusing him of leaking conversations with lawmakers.

Rep. Steve Scalise (R-La.), the chairman of the RSC, asked for his resignation, according to a senior Republican aide. Scalise announced the move at a Wednesday RSC meeting on Capitol Hill, a lawmaker present told POLITICO.


“Paul was divulging private, member level conversations and actively working against strategies developed by RSC members,” said the senior GOP aide familiar with the group. “Trust between senior staff and RSC members is paramount. No staffer is above a member.”

I don't believe that for a second.

The leakers were operatives of Boehner, Cantor, Ryan, et. al.

Did I mention parking lot job?

That doesn't change the fact that you just lied.

Freedom Works and others knew what was in the bill because Boehner's lackeys leaked the details to them.

Then he has the gall to come out and peddle that faux outrage in front of the media, which should probably get him an Oscar nomination.

Isn't the broader point, that they actually negotiated in a bipartisan manner and worked something out? Starters???

No, it's not starters. It's a con job.

There is no obligation on the next congress -or the next, or the one after that- to continue the trajectory of the chicken-hearted decrease in spending under this budget deal.

The goal is to end the sequester.

Helena, you are displaying IWTBS, 'I want to believe syndrome.' Don't believe the far right propaganda machines. A RSC staffer, without authority, did the leaks. He was a mole, who was fired. Your Big Lie crap is over. Elections have consequences, which you are going to suffer.

"bipartisan"......?

that's just a bunch of hype to cover the fact they did nothing....

The goal is to end the sequester.

The goal is to jump start joint governance and to break the strangle hold by the far left and the far right on the left of center to right of center who are trying to do the right thing.

The extremists think "negotiations" and "bipartisanship" are bad.

The goal is to get rid of the sequester -which was the idea of the "far right" president- and spend more money.

That is not the right thing, by any stretch.

I will go with Boehner and Ryan, not you.

Again, you lie to cover establishment goon tracks. I'm detecting a pattern here with you.

If Teller was fired for being a leaker, then why does Boehner come out and make a big scene before the media, whining about dissent over a budget deal that nobody knows about in detail?

You don't get it both ways.

 

[candycorn]

When your party leader is a radio talk-show host, he's quite willing to make unrealistic demands....

His name will never be on a ballot, he will never be responsible for any of his recommendations, he will never have to answer for a vote cast.

Good to see Boehner learned something from his shutdown.

I didnt know Al franken was the leader of the Democratic Party. I thought he was merely another beneficiary of voter fraud.

Franken is actually a member of the Senate and has his name on legislation, voting records, etc... However, he's not the leader of the Democratic party. That would be Barack Obama; your President. In case you missed it he won 332-206.

Of course the truth does. What the Big Lie folks don't get is any belief.
