   The dems are out of control proposing a 6 bill dollar cut in response to the 61 billion on the table which should be even more! The republicans MUST stand their ground and let the dems face the consequences of their action!

      The very sad truth is the government doesn't actually shut down.
      
      The government employees AKA leeches still get paid to do substandard work.

         I worked for government and worked my *** off. And the work was not substandard. You don't know what you are talking about Jim.

            The work is sub-standard, that is, sub-standard to private employees work standards...It wasn't always this way...Sub-standard workers began infiltrating the public sector in the 60's under affirmative action programs...As a private sector manager I was appalled at the mediocrity and laziness I encountered when pursuing government contracts or certain licensing requirements...The motto of these folks seem to be " We have one speed, and that is set by the slowest fellow employee "...This mindset is in full bloom today...

            Jim, and certain other "conservatives," are firm in their belief that public sector employees are lazier, stupider, and higher paid than their private sector counterparts.  He doesn't mind dismissing evidence to the contrary, as long as he can cling to his stereotype.

      Lady_love, have you ever stopped to think that politics should be more about the coin, rather than which side of the coin you are on?

            But they aren't your coins, they are the governments, given to you to use as reward for your labour and to spend on the necessities of life, that includes taxes.
            
            If you really believe that it is your own money then just make some more, there are plenty of copying machines that will do perfect copies of notes.

      "The House wants to carve $61 billion out of the government for just the next seven months, which would throw hundreds of thousands of people out of work and kill off scores of vital functions. Many of them, like funding for health care reform, environmental regulation and Planned Parenthood, are on the Republicans' ideological hit list."

            In that case shouldn't you pursue the creation of a government party that is free from corporate influence completely rather than the democrat or republican parties, both of which have massively influenced agendas due to corporate sponsorship.
            
            I.E Democrat investment in increasing government use of cellular devices, but with huge AT&T investment in the party. Seeing costs rise in communications across the board, and extending the trouble free monopoly of iPhone on single network.
            
            Or
            
            Bush being told to 'wind up' his inaugural speech by one of the top bods of Meryl Lynch, shortly before the 'deregulation of banks', cue the sharp rise of bankruptcies.
            
            There should be 'separation of corporation and state' as much as 'separation of religion and state' in America in my opinion.

   I knew the OP of this thread was either LaLo or Ann Cee before I checked.  This type of post is apparently all they are capable of producing in any great number.  I certainly hope they do not stop posting them every day or so.  Their mere desperation in doing so always gives me a happy feeling knowing these types represent the opposition.  Thanks girls!  I'll check back tomorrow to see what BS your desperation produces.
