Who Shut Down the Government?

^This is the truth
The founding fathers had the foresight to put checks and balances into the system in case some tyrannical people ever got into the wrong places.Obama wrote the rules for the shutdown his last term.It's all a big lie.His disdain and disrespect for those that serve in the armed forces is incredibly evident by his actions.

You really don't get the news out where you live, do you? I guess the only channels available are MSNBC, NBC, ABC & CBS, right? Take a guess what they don't cover, as the BHO administration's puppets..... ;)

When I check the news I see:
1) Hundreds of thousands of veterans laid off by Republican shenanigans.
2) Republican politicos vandalizing the National Mall.

What do you see?

Well as you pointed out it is checks and balances, that means while the house can pass whatever they want the senate and the president don't have to agree. If the house was solely responsible we wouldn't have a shutdown would we, no all three have to agree to any appropriations bill.

Really, it's everyone's fault, which both the cons and the liberals don't want to hear, but that's the truth, they both should have hammered out a deal long ago.

They could cut the FED by 1/3 and it wouldn't bother me 1 bit.There's so much waste and leeching off of the people it's really just deplorable.

Let's work this one through.

1. The Republicans close the Federal government.
2. The Republicans complain that the Federal government is closed.

What about the blockade of citizens' properties?

WE own those monuments and parks. Get that fact through your thick f'n skull.

Those People have assigned the Federal Government the task of regulating their use.
Does the government shutdown mean I can now drill for oil on the National Mall? That I can clear-cut Yellowstone? No. The government shutdown does not mean that it's now each individual's property and they can do what they want. But the Federal Government is the one employed by the people to to determine what use is valid, and no other system has been created in the interim, so how do you prevent the most aggressive from seizing the provided opportunity to gain whatever personal profit they can? By shutting down access to everyone.

That is by far, the best piece of paranoid delusion put to words I can recall ever reading. If you're not working for the government you should be. That is some first class propaganda right there. :thumbsup:

You could be a progressive god should you choose to.

Well then, I'm off to the Mint to start printing some money and provide funding for abortions. Glad you agree that it's my building and that I can do what I want with it.
