Everytime a Republican tries to blame Democrats for the shutdown quotes like this need to be thrown back in their faces.

[Host] John Bachman: … there’s only 10 days until this apocalyptic moment when the government supposedly is gonna shut down and government might default for the first time in history. To the people who say, you know, you guys kind of are waiting till the last minute here, with only 10 days to go, what do you say to them?

Lynn Westmoreland: Well, God created the world in seven days. So, I mean, ten days is not out of the reach for the Senate to act, surely…

*Facepalm*

And since God didn’t actually create the world in seven days, does that mean we’re all screwed?

Don’t answer that.

Obama should never have tried to negotiate with them at all because they just get more bold. I say it wouldn't matter and PBO can now say he's compromised in the past with the gop(ricks) but he's not going to do it over the ACA Law of the Land.



What a freaking nightmare.. only this is our reality.

Thanks,she
