So basically from what I can see is they plan on packaging projects like the Hire More Heroes Act which they voted down before because them Dems wanted it to things like the Keystone pipeline.

So same ole same ole.

Does line veto work for something like that? Oh never mind it would just get bounced back with it reattached if it does.

So same ole same ole.

So it is still not about us, it is still about sticking it to the president....
Cool, go congress!

So basically what I've read, they are proposing laws to counter job cuts caused by Obamacare. Why not just get rid of Obamacare?

Obama won't sign off on that.

But I bet they try soon enough to set up the 2016 klobbering scenarios.

They might be able to change a few things however.

Like maybe make some of the delays permanent for example.

Or maybe eliminate the individual mandate that is already causing headaches for people.

Cause they work for the same guys that lobbied it in the first place.

Only till they shove tpp tthrough .. then bye bye jobs again ..

"House Republicans have pledged to .."

Sorry...can't really take anything seriously after that first line....Nor should anyone...Pages and pages of failed "pledges" from these morons over the past few years...They can't even agree amongst themselves.
