...The lawmakers, taking advantage of House Speaker John Boehner’s promises to allow a free-flowing debate, offered more than 400 amendments to the proposed budget measure. The amendments included spending cuts for foreign aid, farm subsidies and the Environmental Protection Agency. Another would bar the Pentagon from sponsoring Nascar races....
I don't believe we need to be sponsoring Nascar races. That started under Bush. It was an attempt 'popularize' the military and spur enlistment in an all voluntary military. I find it offensive because it 'targets' perspective recruits from a 'segment' of the populous. Why should Nascar fans be subjected to more advertisement than any other of the people of the USA. Perhaps Nascar fans make better soldiers or something.
But, the 'idea' that 'The Fivc Minute Rule" is going to carry 'justice' to debate for the country is a bit silly. There is a reason why there is a Minority Leader and Speaker. Aren't these two people talking about legislation coming to the House floor? 400 amendments. I find that too amateurish to have confidence in the current House and its leadership.
The spending bill cuts domestic measures while increasing the military budget. That is outrageous. The people of this nation is less important than making war.
The NEW Republicans Party is hardly new.
