Government shutdown?

House Republicans add provisions defunding Obamacare as part of the spending bill, Senate Democrats refuse to pass bill with said provisions. Lots of stonewalling back and forth, no spending bill is passed, and new federal fiscal year is about to start unfunded. Boom. Government shutdown.

Blame Obama and Kol haKovod & Kudos to our Dear Republicans in the Senate for Filibustering and in Congress for standing up for what is the right thing.

Everyone please bear this in mind as we go to Midterm Elections in 13 months time, and vote Republican on all slots.

When the government shuts down, do we get to swallow our fellow man alive?

Why should either party compromise. The Republicans (probably correctly) feel that Obamacare will seriously undermine the economy and undermine individual’s autonomy over their health care. The Democrats believe that Obamacare will significant improve the lives of most Americans and is a key to the future welfare of the country. Only a hypocrite would do something that believe will cripple the nation in return for a short term political gain.

And it shows the strength of our separation of powers, withs its checks and balances. This is how the system should work. If you prefer something smoother – try North Korea. No shutdowns there.

My opinion = shut er down! remove obamacare!

let the the narcissistic socialist bully of a president call any1 whatever names he wants. hes a child and he has to learn – Not Everything Goes His Way!

A Gov shutdown,, not so scary.. the fact the president on his own accord (illegally) is subsidizing healthcare for his staff and congress and to whoever he needs on his side… very simplyy hes paying ppl off and nobody seems to care…That lack of lawlessness, Now that is scary..

for those who dont know – a goverment shutdown means is, the core essential goverment still works, but state parks museums and non necessities shut down..

also if they cant settle the budget by oct 17 (the debt ceiling).. things will get ugly

and @Bookworm120

you are very mistaken to think they won’t control you, the only reason why the gov is shut down is because of the few ppl left who are fighting for the ppl and prevent the federal gov from taking full control are shutting it down

I live in the Orient Thousand of miles away from the USA, and it is even making big news over here, but the USA and in particular President Obama, are making laughing stock of themselves across the entire world.

The shutdown is the IT guys’s solution to any problem; “Have you tried turning it off and on again?”

The main problem with the shutdown is that it’s all the wrong parts of government that are shutting down. We still have to pay taxes but the IRS doesn’t have to answer our questions. We can’t go to national parks, which were there before there was a government; but the NSA is still groping grandmas.
