It's funny how the supposed "party of government" is only too happy to make things like "a government shutdown" are as painful as possible. For example, the White House shut down all public tours back during the sequester deliberations, and I don't think they ever reopened, have they. Meanwhile, Obama will fly Air Force One halfway around the world for a round of golf.
This time around, I hear they're preparing big chain-link fences to cordon off all the national monuments.
The worst thing that could happen to the libs is if the government "shuts down" and nobody really notices.
EDIT: Sorry, it's not chain link. Those stimulus dollars bought some much nicer fencing. I love the sign: "Because of the Federal Government SHUTDOWN...."
And what the hell is that police officer doing up there? Probably working for free, god bless him.
