Is this like the last shut down scam where the government employees got more vacation time off, all paid?

If they aren't jacking with my freedoms, I'm ok with that. It's not like I expect work out of government employees anyway.

They “jacking” with your freedom anyway, but they’ll just get more time off paid...
All on you.

Yep. Governments are pretty much shakedown/protection rackets. You just figuring that out?

Nah. I make sure I don't make enough to have to pay for them.

The government never really shuts down. In fact, a so called government shut down is nothing more than a weekend or holiday.

I don’t know about everyone else, but I vote for candidates on the hopes that they PERMANENTLY shut down the federal monster. THAT IS THE GOAL.

Can anyone identify any Representative or Senator that was NOT elected because of the earlier shutdown? Before the cause of the shutdown was ambiguous. This time it will be clearly Obama. Let him veto numerous appropriation bills and the Democrats be on record not to override the veto. Let Obama and the Democrats clearly shut down the government.

Good for Ted.
I stand with Ted

The satellite delay on the interview was horrible, almost like a double loop. It made the questioning chaotic and badly interrupt Sen. Cruz’s presentation. Fox could easily have set up a terrestrial fiber connection (VOIP). This makes me suspect some hanky panky.

Most of them were no friend to Gov. Sarah Palin, despite her being on the payroll there, so does that surprise you?
