Day 4 of shutdown: Vets are going to need wire cutters to visit WWII memorial.
The fences/barricades were not wired shut when I was here on Tuesday.
How low can they go? You democrat voters must be so proud.
On the plus side: these low-life scum-bag tactics against elderly heroes who fought to defend this nation, and what it stands for, are showing the American people what the democrat party is really about.
And let's not forget why we are where we are at:
This all started when democrats, and only democrats, shoved through a so-called healthcare bill of over 10,000 pages, that no one bothered to read.
The bill was so wonderful many in the big business world screamed, and demanded, and were granted, exemptions and extensions from this fabulous healthcare bill no one read.
The politicians thought the bill was so great, that they exempted themselves from it too.
When it was close to the time for the unread bill to be implemented, the paid-$70,000-plus-a-year congressional staff people went crying to the politicians, and threatening to quit their jobs, saying that it (healthcare bill) was going to cost them too much money to have to get. The politicians give them relief, by granting them 72% taxpayer funded subsidies to cover their costs.
Now, the American people are granted no exemptions, no extensions, from this obviously full-of-problems health bill, that no one read. And while the $70,000+ a year congressional staffers can't afford the bill, the people are now expected to pay not just for themselves, but also for the subsidies the congress staffers are getting.
This doesn't even cover the millions of other problems i.e the IRS in charge of your healthcare, privacy issues, the people being forced into part time employment exc...
This is why there was a filibuster by Ted Cruz and a handful of others.
The shutdown is because of the democrats trying to force this unconstitutional P.O.S. bill on the people. A bill that they exempted themselves from.
I hope the jellyfish in the congress will remember what this is about, and grow a spine, as the 80 and 90 year old WWII vets are rolling up in their wheelchairs to retake their memorial back from the Marxists trying to keep them out.
He said yesterday that he's off until Tuesday.

“...Three More Years...”
That’s what Nixon thought, too. A year and a half after his re-election, he was gone. Let’s pray history repeats itself.
Yeah, I attribute that mostly to him losing his time slot. He probably decided that he has to turn it up a notch to stay on the air at all. No more cozy-cozy inside-joke "antagonist on the air" - "friends off the air" jocularity.

WWII wire cutters vs Rev. Al megaphone?
Resist we much!

Lock out our 90y/o Vets at the WWII Memorial and tell the Border Patrol to stand down (plus no fence). Yeah, makes sense. . .
Vermin should simply be eradicated, not hated.
Just saw this on twitter:
Obama’s shock troops are gearing up.
Joint Chiefs searching for their gonads?
Yeah...but he is using Churchill's WW2 strategic directives
1. Destroy means of production of petroleum starting with bombing oil refineries
2. Destroy production of electricity starting with bombing coal mining areas
3. Destroy manufacturing capacity starting with ball bearing factories.
4. Terrorize the civilian population.
Obama has too look strong at home after his humiliation abroad over Syria. He was deeply embarrassed by Putin at the Russian State Dinner, and like the middle school bully who got beat up by the high school kid, he's now meaner to those in his own schoolyard to make himself feel better.

Behold an American President who loved his country and her military:

With Obama, I don’t even think conspiracy is necessary. He has raised the levels of anger and fear in this country to unprecedented levels, probably unknown since the Civil War. And everything he does, such as the monument closings, seems intentionally designed to foment this state of affairs.
I wouldn’t be surprised, however, if he uses the unrest he has fomented to do something like shut down the legislature (or at least Congress) and give himself, by his own act, an enabling resolution. Never let a good crisis go to waste, and he’s certainly been working hard to create a crisis.
Agree. Excellent point.
At that point, it would be time to ask why the Secret Service is still protecting the guy.
I’m with him! I am ready to go storm those barry-cades and I’m not a vet (hearing loss kept me out).
Eagles up! Let’s Roll.
You are right.
Whats next,,,land mines?
