‘Disgusting’: Government at work! Newt Gingrich posts ludicrous shutdown pic
Twitchy ^ | 10/02/2013 | Twitchy

Posted on 10/02/2013 12:08:34 PM PDT by Rusty0604

Former Speaker and former presidential candidate Newt Gingrich took to Twitter to blast the Obama administration for its absurd shutdown actions. "DC Tourists frustrated by shutdown Smithsonian should visit Mount Vernon. Ladies of Mount Vernon have NEVER taken govt money. Still open"

Gingrich and wife had paid a visit to Mount Vernon. And he noticed a little something on the bus turnaround.

"The tour bus turnaround at Mount Vernon closed by Park Police. Zero maintenance required."

A response from a lib:

"Zero maintenance. However, if someone gets lost in there, a staff would be required. Are you really that damn obtuse?"

Lost in a turnaround?

Off and on people have posted articles here that speculate on whether the Mahdi is a homosexual. A curious thing about homosexuals is the spiteful, vicious effeminate rage they manifest when they’re crossed. Just look at how they attacked Prop. 8 supporters in CA. It goes well beyond the Bard’s famous line that, “He’ll hath no fury like a woman scorned.” looks like the Mahdi’s proving he’s the homosexual many of us have thought him to be with the pure effeminate spitefulness with which he’s striking at the American people over his shutdown.

Here in S UT the Feds had to leave open the highway through Zion NP and road to Kolub reservoir (which goes through the west boundary of the park). However, not to be denied, the moronic Feds said today you are “subject to arrest if you stop to take pictures or recreate” as you drive through. What nazi-like putzes. LOL. The Feds are cretins.

Bus turnaround closed, it’s 250’ of wide open asphalt! What a spiteful child we have as president.

Who would notice? Everytime I go to the Smokies, the stuff is usually closed because government is incompetent.

I went to the DOI web site and searched Smokey Mountains, the link shows the park site, but it doesn’t connect. Just a notice that everything is shutdown.

My conclusion, these clowns think they have to staff a web site or close it down.

Get lost in there? Like when Presidential candidate Al Gore got lost on a stroll in the woods and the bodyguards had to rescue him?

They probably pay big buck to have 24 hour webmasters that sit around looking at porn all day. After all the taxpayers have to pay for it.

"Any offence committed there, including speeding on the parkway, goes before a federal magistrate at the EDVA District Court in Alexandria, which is conveniently closed."

No, the District Court is still open. What I have been told is that they have money for the next ten days.

Let's see pictures of our ‘public servants’ arriving at ‘work’ in their limos - with drives tipping hats to these jerks.

Senators think they're royalty - chauffeurs picking up the chuffers - - dropping them off... I WANT PICTURES....

Who's paying for their golden carriages? My guess it's taxpayers or the House of Saud... Hello New York Times. Hello Washington Post.
