House Votes to Defund ObamaCare Enforcement
— Ace

The House voted to defund President Obama's health care overhaul on Friday during a sustained burst of floor activity on amendments to a temporary spending bill that would keep the government lights on but impose deep cuts on domestic programs.
The House approved the amendment in a 239-187 vote.
Among the other actions the House took was to reject a controversial plan to end the Pentagon's sponsorship of a NASCAR team and to vote for a ban on federal aid to Planned Parenthood.
The proposals were among more than 120 amendments remaining for the House to vote on as Republican leaders wind down a week of frenzied action on the spending bill.
The overall bill is the first step in an increasingly bitter struggle between Democrats and Republicans over how much to cut federal agencies' funding over the second half of the budget year that ends Sept. 30. Current funding runs out March 4 and a temporary spending bill will be needed to avoid a government shutdown.

The news is not all good. A lot of Republicans defected on defunding the COPS nonsense, and what I guess was supposed to be a temporary Homeland Security payout to first responders (in the wake of 9/11) which has now become, like all government programs, permanent. And commenters say they haven't cut Amtrak yet (but they're offering amendments so they might) and you've got Dan Lundgren whining about cutting his staff budget.

Toughen up, buttercup.

I don't really think he's threatening to quit the caucus as the Washington Examiner claims. They're very nearly making that up. But he is whining like a schoolyard bitch, as Champ Kind would say.

I don't get these people. How do they politically think they can sell "shared sacrifice" if they insist on no sacrifice at all for themselves?

What the hell? What part of the sentence "We all must sacrifice" is throwing you there, Dan? Which word in that sentence is the read-bump causing your eyes to spin out of control?

I don't want to sound like Jim DeMint here but this is the mathematical fact: We only need 218 House members, plus say a dozen as spares and back-ups.

We can do anything we want with that many. We do not need more. If some of these assholes find this is too difficult for them, I support and encourage their defection to a third party. We will beat them next cycle.

Or not. Who cares. That's the wonderful thing -- it doesn't matter if we beat them or not. We only need 218 (230 for cover and backup).

This is an important point, and one that needs to resonate with America. Anyone who resists the climb out of the huge hole that our government has dug for us (with our money) has to be shown as an uncooperative, prissy, whiny, spoiled little snotbag with a huge sense of entitlement.

The Abrams can hit 50mph easily, and it would chew up the track so badly at that speed that nobody else would finish without pitting 10 times for tires. They might not need the live rounds, although it would be immensely entertaining.

14 The Appropriations Committee Chairman Hal Rogers and certain members the same's subcommittees agreed with Rep. Lundgren and said so on the House floor.* Still, a majority of the Republican defunding amendments have received yes votes and members have been allowed to speak their piece.

*It was on an amendment not handled well by other side.

15 I know that this will, likely, go nowhere (always remember: 53 - 47), but I'm really happy to see them doing these things.

I know they're small potatoes right now (well, OCare, isn't, but Planned Parent hood really is) as far as the actual deficit, but a) it's nice to see them start saying "no" to things we unwashed rubes have been yelling about for a while, and b) it feeds into that whole "see, we've cut the small stuff. There's nowhere left to cut but entitlements" thing.

17 bill that would keep the government lights on but impose deep cuts on domestic programs.

How can cutting $100B out of $3.7T be a deep cut? That's about 2.7% cut - and we'll still have more then twice the deficit we had the last time we had a Republican Congress.

I can think of one guy who could pull it off, Thomas P. "Rico" Oller, who is a native of the area, a staunch patriot, and was just term limited out of the state government.

Lungren is a SoCal carpetbagger. Oddly enough, the Suburbs of Sacramento, which are quite patriotic and conservative even if downtown Sacramento is weenie left, have been the place where term limited State SoCal Republicans come to start their congressional careers. (See also Tom McClintock, a Ventura transplant, in neighboring district CA-4).

20 Another amendment that made headlines was one introduced Wednesday by Rep. Betty McCollum that would have prevented the U.S. Army from spending $7 million on NASCAR and $5 million on drag racing in 2011 as well as millions more by the Air Force and Navy. Her proposal sought to give Republicans another target for slashing wasteful spending. McCollum, who appeared with Muppet characters at a press conference Wednesday to push for continued funding of public broadcasting, McCollum, a Democrat. Hey, how about this... Both muppets and race car drivers pay their own way without taxpayer cash? I know, too radical.

31 16 Hal Rogers -- is he proving to be a disaster or a godsend?

Bit of both. His group led the primary opposition to upping the cuts to $100B because said cuts might be "hurtful", but Boehner twisted his arm and he said yes. He's been getting lots of bipartisan support for the writing of this bill, but he's also been outspoken against certain amendments. So, he's okay so long as Boehner and the conservative members of Appropriations keep him in-line.

If the NASCAR thing is really getting special funding, I agree with you. I don't think it is, though. I don't think the amendment was preventing some special program, it was more a sort of anti-appropriations thing. The money, IIRC, comes out of the Army's recruitment advertising budget normally.

Why shouldn't the Pentagon sponsor NASCAR. it's called recruiting and in order to recruit, you need to advertise. It may be stereotyping but a lot of the pentagon's recruit demographic watch NASCAR.

It's like when the Dems in congress were having hearings on the banking collapse, they called in a bank executive and demanded to know why, when things were collapsing, they were sponsoring a golf tournament. The exec repied "It's called advertising. A lot of the people that we are trying to reach watch golf."

Dumbass politicians don't know how marketing works. They think that the only way to make more money is to raise taxes or wait for the government to give you some.

But Cecile Richards, president of Planned Parenthood, denounced the proposal as an "extreme and dangerous piece of legislation."

"The outcome of this vote is not a surprise, but it is radically out of step with mainstream American values and it is out of line with the issues voters want Congress to focus on," she said.

"To be clear, the amendment to prohibit Planned Parenthood from receiving federal funding does nothing to reduce the deficit and it does nothing to improve the economy," she added. "In fact, health professionals will actually lose their jobs as a result, and, most egregiously, it takes health care the ability to kill unwanted children away from American women who cannot afford to pay for it to kill them on their own."

"The House rejected a measure cutting an additional $22 billion from the Republican spending bill, as conservatives ran into a wall of opposition from the GOP establishment over the depth of reductions to federal funding."

Blackburn and Jordan drafted a bill further cutting spending but it let the OMB decide what and where to cut. Further, Hal Rogers and Appropriations subcommittee leaders spoke-out against the amendment because (1) they don't want to make further cuts and (2) they likely felt slighted. So it was a good idea opposed by the usual suspects but the sponsors also went about it the wrong way.

NHRA's most desired crew chief and manager used to work for the Army team and they hardly ever lost. It seems they couldn't pay him enough money, so he is now employed by His Royal Highness Sheikh Khalid Bin Hamad Al Thani, a member of Qatar's ruling family.

Every TV interview with any member of the Al-Anabi team always includes a grovel on how benevolent the dear, greasy sheik is to his humble servants, and believe me, that's hardly an exaggeration. Gee, it's almost like it's in their contracts.

The Pentagon's NASCAR budget is 7 mil and its NHRA budget is 5 mil. In perspective, that falls in between what most candidates running for president spend out of their own pockets.

Do we need more oil sheiks to come over with unlimited budgets and kick ass in NASCAR, too?
