Partially? From my vantage, the US government is not functioning at all.
Then I guess you had best fund that f***ing wall, you greasy, little maggot.
Aaaaargh.
Government shutdown is an oxymoron.
The government does NOT in fact shut down.
Rubio, that uniparty expletive-deleted, bloody well knows this.
Well then fund the wall or not you salt water wetback
Chicken Little. The sky is falling, the sky is falling!
America First !
Somebody tell Rubio the government shut Dow and the only reason people noticed was because they deliberately targeted things that affect us. How about no pay for the staffers and legislators to start with them defund NPR, EPA, and Department of education FIRST?
Here we go again with the Chicken Little Dance.
Yes, it is of course preferable that the Government not be ‘shut down’ due to having no acceptable budget submitted.
At very least, it looks at though people aren’t doing their jobs correctly, a part of that being to negotiate, submit and enact a workable national budget.
However, we’ve gone through this before a couple of times, and we now know that most essential governmental functions will continue even in absence of an updated budget. We know that Obama’s people purposely made it seem worse years ago via theater and choreography. Remember those black steel gates that suddenly popped up and blocked people from visiting national parks?
Remember the Veterans Groups that were blocked from attending a Vets function held outside. The elderly veterans simply removed many of the barriers or went around them.
This was but one example of Obama’s pettiness and contempt for his worst foe: the average Non-Obama-Loving American.
If this so called shut down occurs this time, I would not be surprised to learn that Paul Ryan somehow facilitated the outcome or exacerbated the consequences just to stain Trump’s legacy. Unfortunately, I no longer trust Paul Ryan at all.
The Gang of 8 UNIPARTY has spoken...now sit down n shut up Little Marco you sniveling whiner.
Still sore about the election are ya Rubio?
So says Foam Boy!
Nonsense. We shut down for three weeks a few years ago and nobody really noticed.
Dr. Ben Carson found 500 billion dollars of waste, fraud and abuse at HUD alone. What have you done about that, Rubio?
Then don’t shut it down ya dumb spud!
Fine Marco, turn in your essay detailing all the horrible damage from all the other govt “shutdowns” that have taken place.
Those horrible results and effects have slipped my mind, unlike the effects of 9/11 for example.
Rubio once again puts his cowardliness on display.
Grow up, Rubio....
Essential elements if the givernment would continue, whic is probably 96% of the givernment as they define it...
bump
Marco, hold faithfully to your principles....they’re all you have.
#1. Government doesn’t shut down. They continue to operate what they call “essential” services.
#2. Its wonderful political theater. It gives us the chance to show just how much of government is not essential.
