We're facing another government shutdown. This has the Republican Party in full flight not fight mode. The Obama campaign machine has been making noises that Obama will be running against a "do nothing" Congress--read the Republican'ts/Tea Party-controlled House of Representative.

Sinclair Lewis must have envisioned Obama's ascent to power. |
This is silly when you consider that the Democrat-controlled Senate has not approved an operating full budget in over three years. Instead, the nation is subjected to a fiasco of continuing spending resolutions that result in higher spending. For their part, Republican'ts are acting like a scared prison bitch waiting to be bitch-slapped by "her" main man. They are afraid that Democrooks will accuse them of trying to shut the government down.
Here's some news for you cowardly Republican't lions. Several shutdowns have happened in the last thirty years. But it seems that the Republicans were traumatized by the two shutdown in FY 1995-96. At one point some 800,000 Federal employees were furloughed. The Clinton/Big Lie /Lame-stream Media propaganda machine went into action and placed the blame on Republican'ts, and in particular House Speaker Gingrich. Presidential candidate Gingrich is paying the price today for that confrontation between fiscally responsible Conservatives and irresponsible Liberal Socialists.
The Republican establishment is running a sub rosa campaign against Gingrich and other conservative candidates that want to stand-up against the totalitarian Liberal-Socialists. Each time that there's a possibility that there will be a government shutdown, the Republican't establishment lackeys run in panic like a turkey before Thanksgiving dinner.
What the Republican'ts should be doing is pointing out through TV ads how it's the Democrooks that are gumming up the process by their intransigence. Obama a compromiser? That's rich. The Presidunce is so stubborn that he would rather deny 20,000 jobs that would be created by the Keystone pipeline from Canada because he wants the payroll tax moratorium to continue without pipeline approval. This boneheaded policy is cast in stone in Obama's blockhead, even though it would benefit his union supporters. [Oh please, you Liberal-Socialist dolts, don't tell me how "smart" Obama is unless you're prepared to show us his all of college grades, law school grades, and any scholarly writings by him!] It appears that the Eco-Nazis have more sway than the unions do with this crypto-Marxist.
But it would be foolish to expect the Republican'ts to fight for what's right. They prefer the sick romanticism of inglorious failure. Pray that the Tea Party becomes a real political party before Obama assumes total control.
