YAYYYYY!!!!!!
Another day they can’t spend our money!
Just got the call that our school is canceled for tomorrow. That takes us to June 23.
The Republic is safe for one more day. Didn’t we use to send them back to their day jobs for 6 months a year in the day before Pelosi requisitioned her fleet of booze soused, tax payer financed, Gulfstream Jets and 767s?
Your income tax is needed to pay for the paid time off of those who don't make it to work.
Now get back to work!
One more day with no new taxes!
Huh? I’m not a serf!
Contractors...
Very soon people are going to relize we can get along just fine without Washington.
Why do you live in Howard County if you work in Washington DC? That’s really far away.
Thank you Lord.
Howard County is not too far. About 30 miles each way. My wife always has worked in Baltimore (and she hates to commute far). Traffic is normally not too bad the hours I work.
Iran’s attack day tomorrow and obama’s govt. can’t handle snow.
No one’s life, liberty, or happiness is safe while congress is in session!
There’s a silver lining in every cloud.
If the feds can’t work, they can’t screw up this country.
There’s another storm forecast for early next week as well.
You’re not out of the woods yet.
Love it.
Fed employees, Country employees, School employees, City employees. All off WITH pay. Is it becoming idiocy that we all are not “public servants”? Maybe that’s the plan.
Love the weather map....
You’re right. They shouldn’t be all getting off with pay. The private sector isn’t.
Fed employees should have to make up the time over the rest of the year, otherwise they are robbing the taxpayer.
People in the real world either don’t get paid or have to take a personal day off in many cases.
