Speaker Paul D. Ryan hedged Tuesday on whether a majority of Republicans will support must-pass, year-end measures such as the omnibus appropriations bill and a tax extenders package, saying many issues have yet to be resolved.
“We’ll see how the process goes,” he said.
But Ryan did say he expects a majority of Republicans to support highway and elementary and secondary education conference reports that the House plans to take up this week.
* MEANING MORE SPENDING... MORE DEBT... MORE PORK...
* FOLKS... WE'VE GONE OVER THIS BEFORE; RYAN IS BETRAYING US - JUST AS BOEHNER DID.
“We expect to have very good majority support on both the highway bill and the ESEA bill,” he said. “These are great conservative education reforms. I think that it was quoted in the paper yesterday that this is the greatest evolution of power back to the states in education in 25 years. That’s impressive and that’s why I think a majority of Republicans will be supporting it.”
* I'M ALL IN FAVOR OF GETTING THE FEDS OUT OF EDUCATION; BUT WE'RE TALKING SPENDING; AND RYAN AND THE RINOs WANT TO SPEND! BORROW AND SPEND!
Addressing a potential standoff with the White House on contentious riders to the omnibus related to environmental regulations or Planned Parenthood funding, Ryan said, “Look, we obviously have differences of opinion on all of those big issues. Those negotiations are ongoing right now. The last thing I want to do is get ahead of our Appropriations Committee, which is taking the lead in those negotiations.”

Let's recap the "Yea" votes... the "Ayes"... Republicans who voted "Yes" on Loretta Lynch's confirmation allowing her to become Attorney General, shall we?
Ayotte (R-NH)
Cochran (R-MS)
Collins (R-ME)
Flake (R-AZ)
Graham (R-SC)
Hatch (R-UT)
Johnson (R-WI)
Kirk (R-IL)
Portman (R-OH)
McConnell (R-KY)
(Yes... as in "Mitch"... Senate Majority Leader... Chief "Republican.")
So... over 20% of "Republicans" - including the CHIEF Republican - voted FOR Lynch.

It came down to the addition of a single word for the a tree lighting ceremony, but that word carried enough significance for borough Councilwoman Charlene Storey to resign.
Minutes after the council voted 4-2 Thursday night to change the name of the ceremony from A Tree Lighting to A Christmas Tree Lighting, the councilwoman-at-large, left the meeting. She later submitted her letter of resignation with the municipal clerk's office.
"I cannot in good conscience continue to be part of a council that is exclusionary or to work with a Mayor who is such," Storey said in her letter.
* OH... MY... GOD...!!! YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS $HIT UP!
