Guide to government shutdown

Pretty much. For the record, my source for that was NPR.

Duly noted. I've been slacking on posting up info on this as it's the Rep's own feeds and the Senate and House feeds. I'm also prepping to head out of town for a bit so I'm kind of being lazy

Every vehicle has a BOB in it that will sustain me for minimum of 3 days.

Good, one less of you we have to pay. Congress is doing their job, it's the senators that are having issues and your President.

I guess your education level is high with your post.

Lets see...its the Republicans fault though Harry Reid refuses to do any negotiation and Obama said that he will not compromise on anything AND he will veto anything that does pass if he doesnt like it....

You know I'm starting to wonder if Janet Napolitano's resignation last month might have something to with the administration's response plans. We still don't have a nomination for a new DHS secretary. Obama knows that just about anyone he appoints is going to get shredded in the confirmation hearings.

The games politicians play: Barack Obama is having a lot of fun using the government shutdown to squeeze the public in imaginative ways. The point of the shutdown game is to see who can squeeze hardest, make the most pious speech and listen for the applause. It’s a variation on the grade-school ritual of “you show me yours, and I’ll show you mine.”

President Obama is not a bad poker player, but the man with all the chips always starts with the advantage (and he gets all the aces). He has closed Washington down as tight as he dares, emphasizing the trivial and the petty in making life as inconvenient as he can for the greatest number. It’s all in a noble cause, of course. Access to most of the memorials is limited, and often in curious ways. The Lincoln Memorial is easy to reach, with the streets around it remaining open. But the Martin Luther King Memorial is made difficult to reach, relegating it, you might say, to the back of the bus. Not very nice.
