I’d already seen the story(from a lib perspective) posted at Facebook, with Neugebauer referred to as a “d....bag.” Not good. Republicans have to be very careful about everything they say and do. There IS a double standard and they should know it.

You have to call them out. You have to ask them who they think the good guys are in this, and who they think the bad guys are. Ask them if they think the Park Rangers are the good guys. If they say yes, ask them why they think 90-year old WWII vets are the bad guys.

These are the facts. In every binary confrontation, sides must be chosen.

ok, I probably wasn’t clear. Everyone thinks the Vets are fabulous. Everyone loves that.

They just thought that as a Congressman, high level government official, Neugebauer was acting like a bully toward a low level Park Ranger. No low level Park Ranger made the decision or voted on the govt shutdown, nor did any low level Park Ranger decide which sites would be closed or how they’d be closed. By bullying, or seeming to bully, such a low level person, he lost the PR battle
