Obama and Senate Democrats thought they could bully the House into passing funding for the federal government that did not include a amendment to defund Obamacare. Well that was not the case as the grassroots Conservatives rose up and demanded that the House Leadership stand strong in the wake of phony Democrat outrage. This partial shutdown is direct result of Obama and Senate Democrats wanting to protect the 1%ers that include Congressional Members, Staffers, Unions and Donors, NOT the American People! I say Conservatives must remain strong in the wake of the lapdog press, Democrats and French Republicans!

My City water is still flowing, the city sewer is not backed up, the feral urban utes are still missing from my ‘hood, my food and fuel stocks are still set at 6 mo ‘till stune, the only issue is that I have to do my (deferred) 2012 taxes soon.

Now that the stupid government is shut down will the low information voters finally realize that government is not needed? it isn’t, 99% of the gov is not needed only the military and border control are needed

Good that the Republicans didn’t back down

I’m hoping this lasts a few weeks.

The Republicans should leave the capital building and announce they’ll return when the Democrats regain their sanity.

I'd be willing to bet that quite a number of them would be hurting if their wish of a several week shutdown came true.
