Well.. Boehner is sticking pretty much to the plan, and The Dems are circling the wagons and sticking together and wanting their "CLEAN" CR Bill before they will even considering sitting down and talking.. This "Clean CR" means completely caving-in before they will even talk.!!!!!
Now the piecemeal approach to funding the government but just leaving Obamacare out is met with LAWYERS in the Pentagon and Whitehouse Lawyers denying death benefits and transportation for families to claim the bodies of their children killed in battle..!!!!! If there was ever a chance or even a glimmer of hope for me thinking there is redemption for any Democrat or Muslim in the Whitehouse or Congress.... THAT DAY IS GONE FOREVER. There is not ONE shred of decency among them.
At least the GOP bunch tried to fund what they thought was the right thing to keep those parts in effect for our soldiers. Our fallen brothers are "sacred ground" and non-negotiable for anything political. I realize the president has made it his personal vendetta to "make this shutdown as painful as possible" so people will feel it, and makes no bones about this stand (openly admitting it), but THIS IS PAIN THAT THIS NON-COMBATANT CAMPAIGNER-IN-CHIEF NEEDS TO HAVE COME HOME FOR HIM TO FEEL.! THIS IS WHY I FEEL LIKE MANY DO, THAT ANY PRESIDENT AS COMMANDER IN CHIEF OF OUR ARMED FORCES SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO BE A VETERAN FIRST, LEGALLY DISCHARGED, AND SWORN IN A SECOND TIME TO UPHOLD THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES AGAINST ALL ENEMIES FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC.....!

Amen

I can only hope that a secret service agent has a accidental discharge of his duty weapon?

If there is one thing you can take away from the shutdown, is the fact 80% of the federal government is irrelevant to functioning of the country.

What good is border patrol when you refuse to make those here illegally leave?

Park service, fire 80% of them and you won't notice.

Same holds true for the Forest Service.

and the list goes on .. ATF, NSA, etc ...

Personally I think they quit borrowing and fix the debt problem today. the easiest way to get rid of waste is just not to fund it anymore.

Nothing firearms related! Now "accidentally" falling down stairs as many times as it take to break his neck, slipping and falling while running with a pair of round nose scissors, a slip of a butter knife, bathing with a plugged in toaster, choking on a piece of BS while speaking, hit with an asteroid, trampled by a rouge elephant...

A red elephant? I think you meant a rogue elephant brother.

Yep. Bad finger, bad bad bad!

I'll paint the elephant red, if it agrees to get the job done.

While I'll never advocate doing violence to anyone, I'd sure enjoy pizzing on a certain grave.

The current state of our Gov't is due to the lack of intelligence among voters.
The plain truth is that there are so many parasites now voting in big government, and less earning & paying that we are diving into an abyss. There will be no turnaround until it is forced by collapse. No society can survive by borrowing more than they can pay in order to live beyond their means.

It hurts the veterans and citizens who want to visit to their National Parks but has no effect on the illegal aliens rallying on our property from which citizens are barred. What is wrong with this picture? Do libs (commies) not see the problem? Of course they do not. They have no shame.

Ditto +1,000





I keep hopin' the pilot of Air Force One will take one for the team...

You got it...
