Republican congressional leaders are like a football coach who believes the secret to winning is to punt early and often. House Speaker Paul Ryan and others are claiming victory over the 2,000-plus page appropriations bill, but this is a "no boondoggle left behind" $1.1 trillion nightmare. House Appropriations Committee Chairman Hal Rogers' press release claims that the omnibus bill "helps to stop waste and administrative overreach." Instead, the bill ravages both paychecks and freedom. No wonder White House spokesman Josh Earnest gushed Wednesday: "We feel good about the outcome." Here's the tip of the iceberg of the bill's outrages: •The bill fails to block President Obama from delivering up to $3 billion to the United Nations Green Climate Fund, a partial product of the Paris climate summit. Republicans initially planned to block such funding unless the Senate was permitted to vote on the U.N. climate treaty.
