This is exactly how this will play out:
The shutdown WILL occur on Oct 1. No noticeable effects for a while.
On or about October 15, Obama will pull the plug on the EBT cards and blame Republicans.
From October 15 - November 1st, increasing levels of riots will occur in major cities. The entire time, Obama and the Propaganda Corps (ABC NBC CBS CNN NYT) will blame it on the shutdown and on Republicans.
November 1st through 7th, Obama will demand Democrats get to the polls to restore government services.
Democrats will turn out in numbers never seen before on an off year.
Republicans will not take the Senate and will lose the House. Obama will keep importing Latinos at a breakneck speed from then on. There will be no threat of impeachment or limitation any more.
The coup will be complete.
Some people remark that the States administer EBT. True, but in 2013, during the government shutdown, the Feds were about ready to pull the plug on the states. Please note this letter:
PDP-11s are at that curious point in history where anyone old enough to remember them is almost too old to remember anything.
Yes, it started way back then.
The other day at the office, one of my co-workers asked me how it was that I served multiple tours in Vietnam as a combat infantryman and I didn’t get PTSD. My rather flippant answer was “I didn’t get PTSD in Vietnam, I gave it.”
However, this PTSD question made me wonder what PTSD is and what the symptoms are, so I did a little research on the subject and found that I did indeed possess symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) concerning a traumatic and very stressful incident that occurred during my last tour in Vietnam. I was a professional soldier when the traumatic incident occurred and had accumulated over six years in Vietnam engaged occasionally in close combat with a vicious and cunningly capable enemy, but the traumatic event wasn’t as a result of close combat with this enemy.
One day when I was totally focused on closing with and destroying the enemy, something caught my eye, I looked around and found a new enemy had unexpectedly appeared behind me; it was the American people. The same Democrat Party who had originally sent me to Vietnam promising that, “We shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and success of liberty,” had now sided with the Communists I was fighting. They were parading in the streets of the United States under a Viet Cong flag, were quoting from Mao’s Red Book, and were spitting on and flinging insults at returning Vietnam Veterans. Then, a Democrat led Congress cut off funding for the Vietnam War, American combat troops were withdrawn and we abandoned a valiant ally to their fate.
I was ordered out of the country in 1972, and when I arrived at Travis Air Force Base, purposely in the dark of the night, I was advised to change out of my uniform and put on civilian clothing to avoid being attacked by the American people when I entered San Francisco. I wasn’t at all surprised when a few decades later these same people elected a Marxist-Communist as President of what was once my country.
Yes, the deep, burning hatred I feel for the Democrat Party to this day could be diagnosed as a symptom of PTSD, and I assure you, every Vietnam Veteran I know feels the same way.
These cattle are eying the prod thinking that gold will flow from it.
Yes, ping list please!
Phsaw. I remember them, and I am at the top of my development game. In fact, enough thread for one night. Back to my revolution-in-software project. Winforms. C#. SQL. WCF and web services. I’ll be back to this thread in a while. :)
Will do.
Tonight, I openly quit calling them Democrats. They are Communists.
Tell me. Plz.

It seems this would’ve made a good Rage Monkey thread. Whatever happened to him?
If this is done, however it comes down, courts and judges will be irrelevant. The Sultan has already shown he can successfully ignore the courts and Congress. No one is going to stop him. All the ones who are in position to b able to are, instead, maneuvering to get the best seats on the Train.
And remember: dead welfare rats don't testify in court against you.
It's us against them.
Mensheviks. That’s the word.
I remember them myself; helped build an operator trainer for the PATRIOT missile system running on a cluster of them back during the glory days of the Cold War.
There are not even close to enough of us for either. We are a dying breed.
I threw out the house TV in ‘88. I’ve never looked back.
I don’t know that they want to thwart it. They think they’ll be immune from the ensuing chaos. They aren’t. And there are plenty of people who will hunt them down.
Exactly.
“I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.”
—Thomas Jefferson to Thomas Cooper, November 29, 1802
Destruction of the American Republic has been going on for over 100 years, since President Woodrow Wilson, father of the progressive movement, set the deed in motion. Seems like quite a bit of mayhem has occurred already.
“The consequences of a government not securing a country’s borders is that a people will lose their country as we are now losing ours to an invasion of illegal immigrants. The consequences of not securing a country’s electoral processes to prevent voter fraud is the country will lose its Democracy to a Thugocracy as we have lost ours to a Chicago-mob run Coup d’état.”
Somebody left the door open. Troy is lost!
The same as down through history:
War, famine, poverty, ruin.
