George Washington’s home – Mt. Vernon, sustained a direct attack from the Obama Administration today.

Mt. Vernon just became the latest victim of the government shutdown, reports The Daily Caller.

The home of America’s first President is privately owned and operated by the Mt. Vernon Ladies’ Association, reports The Free Beacon.

Since the home itself isn’t run by the National Park Service, the house couldn’t be justifiably closed.

However, the parking lot area and the trails surrounding the home are technically owned by the government.

Today, the Feds decided to close the bike/walking trails and barricade the parking lot. They even turned around tour bus full of paying customers

words cannot express what utter pieces of shyte this administration is.

Are they going to furlough Obama’s Mother in Law because to me she is nonessential personnel. If all of these things are closed to the American people than her free loading ride needs to come to an end.

Why are folks afraid of Park Police?

Drive through the damn barricade and dare them to open fire.

Despicable RAT B@st@rds!

I wonder if we could solve all problems by just shutting down the White House.

Don’t forget the armed goons that are willing to enforce his edicts to keep their jobs.

I wonder if the administration and democrats understands the blowback coming their way...

If anything Americans are a patience lot when it comes to politics...

These shenanigans are going to bite them in the ass...

Trail Ridge road to Estes Park CO is closed due to the shutdown. It is one of only two roads into town after the floods. This is a declared disaster area with major infrastructure damage. TR road will close due to weather before long but we need every day and every way we can get to try and get a handle on the flood aftermath before serious winter weather sets in.

TR road is a state highway so where do the Feds get off closing it? Unfortunately our mayor doesn't have the balls to stand up for us he was on Fox News putting the blame on Congress instead of doing his job. But the fact remains, 0bama is applying pain to people in a national disaster area for political gamesmanship.

Exactly. Must fight back the individuals before we’re facing an army.

That’s despicable! Any recourse for you all?

The media was all over Bush’s supposed “callousness” and “insensitivity” in the wake of Katrina and 9/11. Now it’s just crickets. What’s that you post about Pat Caddell? ...

I think this story is a little bit behind. MV’s parking lots were barackaded on the 1st but the MVLA informed the Park Service that they own the parking lot (no one at the Park Service supposedly knew)and the Park Service took down the barackades.

Similarly, the Park Service also shut down the privately owned Claude Moore Farm a few miles up the GW Parkway from Mt Vernon AND a privately owned place on the Blue Ridge Pkwy, also in VA. That doesn’t include privately run parks across the country. It will be interesting to see how many places the feds don’t own or run that they chose to close.

If our mayor won't stand up for us there isn't much recourse. I suppose I could talk to the Sheriff but his main job is to deal directly with the aftermath of the flooding (and he's doing a fantastic job) not get involved in the politics. That's what our mayor and governor are for and I already know that our gov is a sorry-ass commie a-wipe.

We will work through whatever is thrown against us. I posted that not to complain or find relief but simply to inform all of yet another incident of 0malignant's narcissistic cruelty.
