One consequence of O'Bummer's government services shutdown is that Mt. Rushmore can now only be seen from the Canadian side

Whose "shutdown?" Is reality always so difficult for you?

Yo, Bro -- time for a reality check, methinks. Who's president these days ? So who tells the federal work force what to do and not do ? Who orders it to make an many people feel as much pain as possible, figuring that will give him leverage to get his campaign contributors paid off ?

Put traffic cones up to keep tourists in cars from pulling over to look at Mount Rushmore ? Sure !



“We’ve been told to make life as difficult for people as we can," an angry Park Ranger told the Times. "It’s disgusting.”

Just before the weekend, the National Park Service informed charter boat captains in Florida that the Florida Bay was "closed" due to the shutdown. Until government funding is restored, the fishing boats are prohibited from taking anglers into 1,100 square-miles of open ocean. Fishing is also prohibited at Biscayne National Park during the shutdown.

CNSNews.comreported that, because there are only a little over 230 active-duty Catholic priests to serve some 275,000 Catholic military personnel, the government has contracted with non-military priests to help perform Mass and other religious functions. But according to the Archdiocese for the Military Services, these non-active-duty military priests face arrest if they perform Mass or other religious services on military bases during the government shutdown, even if they volunteer their time.

John Schlageter, general counsel of the Archdiocese for the Military Services, explained in a letter on the archdiocese website that during the shutdown, contract priests hired by the federal government to fill in on military bases when no active duty priest is available “are not permitted to work — not even to volunteer. During the shutdown, it is illegal for them to minister on base and they risk being arrested if they attempt to do so.”

Your shithead tea bagging asshole pals refuse to pass a continuing resolution to fund government operations. What is Obama supposed to do? Pay them with confederate money. I'm sure the southern assholes would like that but you had best wake up.

Stunts like that (the list is far from exhaustive) are what an enemy leader in wartime would pull to coerce a country hostile to him into surrendering.

Pretty accurate description, now that I consider it . . .

The tea baggers ARE the enemy of the country.

The 'Everything Else' Forum..... Here's where you get off topic and off center....Keep it nice, keep it clean, no sniping, no flaming. After that, anything goes.


You're out of line on this one min. I have a huge tolerance for sniping & swearing, but you crossed the line. You've made it vile & personal... Ugh!
