“We got the heads up that they will be barricaded and specifically asked for an exception for these heroes,” Palazzo told TheDC. “We were denied and told, ‘It’s a government shutdown, what do you expect?’ when we contacted the liaison for the White House.”

Palazzo’s office was in touch with the heads of the National Park Service, the Department of the Interior and the Capitol Police. He says all these officials rejected his request to allow the veterans, many of whom are octogenarians and some of whom are in poor health, to attend.

Decadess ago, these heroes bested the Japanese Zero. Today they showed that they still had enough left to tackle the KENYAN ZERO...

There is absolutely no reason to close ANY of the monuments. They are wide open. Close the restrooms and museum shops and concession stands if you must but the monuments don’t have to be barricaded.

It’s just part of Obozo’s Kabuki Theatre.

Not surprising. Yet, “the Won” used his WWII Veteran Grandfather “gramps” to push AFA and Mortgages.

This bunch just keeps on going.

Kudos and thanks to all Veterans.

Most of govt is shutdown including Obamacare.

Except for Obamacare, the govt could be operational.

Either way, Obamacare is shutdown.

So why did the Democrats shutdown most of the govt? To hold America “hostage”?
