    Looks like everyone gets to keep working in the federal government till September as long as the president signs off the proposed spending bill. Everyone except Homeland Security that is. Republicans are attempting to push the president into discontinuing his immigration plans thru only partial funding. Do you think this will work or at this point is it possible that Obama might feel like he has nothing to lose by pushing back?

    well not exactly JR, they are trying to put some pressure on the immigration thing, you can bet that will probably slow the budget some because I doubt Obama will be in the mood to say, naw that's okay just forget about it. I am a bit alarmed that there has been no cuts, sure they agreed but it is still quite a large budget thoughts?
