Funding DHS by passing a clean bill means the DHS passport checkers at the airport will continue to be paid. But it also means so much more. Here is a short list of outcomes that you probably were not familiar with.
1) This bill, also known as “The bill to give Obama’s illegal amnesty program official sanction” gives Obama’s illegal amnesty program official sanction.
2) “The bill to give Obama’s illegal amnesty program official sanction” also fully funds Obama’s illegal amnesty program.
3) The Constitution has been shredded.
4) The GOP is now held in disrepute by everyone except the Chamber of Commerce.
5) Barack Obama is on his way to unrestrained power.
I learned of all these downstream outcomes from reading Red State, which is my favorite thing to do after Boehner’s occasional capitulations to reality.
