A funny thing happened on the way to the election this year. It seems with outsiders such as Trump, Cruz, Carson, etc. leading the polls over the establishment candidates, the GOP went full scale liberal on us. It's as if the Republican establishment is rebelling against the outsiders. Kinda like them saying... "okay you want to take over the party? Well we are gonna blow it all up before you get here."

I mean... we of course knew most Republicans were liberal all along but they had never flaunted it in such a manner as they are now.

Paul Ryan's bill does the following....

(1) Ryan’s Omnibus Fully Funds DACA

(2) Ryan’s Omnibus Funds Sanctuary Cities

(3) Ryan’s Omnibus Funds All Refugee Programs

(4) Ryan’s Omnibus Funds All of the Mideast Immigration Programs That Have Been Exploited by Terrorists in Recent Years

(5) Ryan’s Omnibus Funds Illegal Alien Resettlement

(6) Ryan’s Omnibus Funds the Release of Criminal Aliens

(7) Ryan’s Omnibus Quadruples H-2B Foreign Worker Visas

(8) Ryan’s Omnibus Funds Tax Credits for Illegal Aliens

(9) Ryan’s Omnibus Locks-In Huge Spending Increases

(10) Ryan’s Omnibus Fails to Allocate Funds to Complete the 700-Mile Double-Layer Border Fence That Congress Promised the American People

Like I told our friend Chrys last night which he promptly ignored.

In case you were worried, the Paul Ryan-GOP budget doesn’t cut, let alone abolish, the sacred Planned Parenthood payoff.

Just thought you should know since you worry so much about those Republican friends of yours. Wanted to make sure you were at ease. Don't want you to have a stroke or something.

When I saw articles yesterday listing the wins and losses for both parties in this spending bill, I was a bit surprised. The GOP didn't really get much at all, except lifting the ban on oil exports, continuing the ban on federal funds for gun research, and not letting Puerto Rico declare bankruptcy. Other than that, just about everything was a "Democrat win" or "bipartisan".

And the far right didn't get anything they wanted. PP is funded, no big rollback of immigration policies, no Obamacare defunding/repeal, no gutting of Dodd-Frank, no repeal of EPA regulations, and no ban on money going to the international fund that's the centerpiece of the Paris Climate Accord.

I'm also hearing that this may have to pass with Democrat votes. Given all this, you have to wonder why the Freedom Caucus isn't up in arms against Ryan the same way they were with Boehner.

Right, standing firm with your principles and not going along with the panderers will do that. Unlikeable has nothing to do with it really. His reaction to Cher's spite was SO MEAN! :bang:

Huh??? Not even close.

The establishment hates Cruz.

That's one of the reasons I like him. :)

If Cruz becomes a thread for the Republican nomination, I wonder if he'll continue being as deferential toward Trump if "the Donald" demands a Supreme Court ruling to determine if Cruz qualifies as a "natural-born citizen!"

Yes, I'm trying to imagine the negotiations:

Pelosi: "We want Planned Parenthood fully funded."
Ryan: "OK, so long as you allow crude oil exports."

Pelosi: "And we're not giving an inch on Dodd-Frank."
Ryan: "OK, so long as you allow crude oil exports."

Pelosi: "Sanctuary cities are fully funded."
Ryan: "OK, so long as you allow crude oil exports."

Pelosi: "No restrictions on Syrian refugees."
Ryan: "OK, so long as you allow crude oil exports."

Pelosi: "We want financial aid for Puerto Rico."
Ryan: "OK, but not until March, 2016."

Pelosi: "You will strip out those provisions attacking Obama's executive orders allowing illegal immigrants to be free from prosecution."
Ryan: "OK, so long as you drop your insistence on doing a federal government research program on gun violence."

Pelosi: "You will drop your objections to the EPA orders to shut down coal fired power plants."
Ryan: "OK, so long as you allow crude oil exports."

etc. etc. etc.
