    It's much harder to find people in National Parks when the feds refuse to help. So local authorities will have to search for lost hikers while federal officers and firemen stay at home.

    The Republicans offered a bill to fund national parks so this kind of thing wouldn't happen. The Senate Democrats shot it down.

    So yes, Obama and the Democrats are actually allowing lost hikers to die to make a political point!!!

    Disgusting!!!

    Blood sacrifices we have to make to preserve liberty so we don't end up living under the American version of the Taliban.

    On the other hand, it's safety issues like this which is why they close down the national parks during a Government shutdown. Enter at your own risk.

    Obama didn't shut down the govt.

    No bill has ever reached his desk to sign or veto.

    Harry Reid thinks its ok to let little girls die of cancer to score a point against Republicans.

    Kathleen Sebelius was willing to allow a little girl to die rather than have a lung transplant.

    And oh, let's not forget 3000 abortions a day.

    Democrats hate children and want them to die.

    Why does the GOP want children to die?

    They shut down the govt.

    Why does the GOP want to keep veterans from registering for VA benefits?

    They shut down the govt.

    All of which could be prevented if Republicans in the House funds the entire government.

    These hikers entered the parks BEFORE the shutdown!!!! Didn't you bother to read the story???

    And the federal government is not assisting to find them!!!

    Republicans offered a bill to reopen the parks and the Democrats shot it down.

    So if those hikers die, blood will be on Harry Reid's hands.

    Republicans passed a bill to fund the VA. Democrats voted against it.

    So you are wrong on your facts.

    Why doesn't the GOP want to save these people?

    They seem to hate ObamaCare more than they love children.

    Why does the GOP hate ObamaCare more than they love their fellow Americans?

    Republicans voted unaminously to send thousands of people's children to die in some Middle Eastern hellhole. They also don't want legislation that will UNDOUBTEDLY save young lives.

    Ergo, Republicans hate children?

    This thread is proof that Democrats are willing to actually kill people to score points against Republicans.

    Because Republicans voted to fund national parks so that those hikers could be saved.

    Democrats said, "no, we'll allow them to die."

    You might want to check your facts... The Dems were all for Iraq and Afghanistan... And Obama was quite happy killing kids trying to get Gadaffi and now wants to do the same in Syria... Stick to British politics ~

    ACtually the bill on Boehners desk that was passed last week by the Senate, only needs a House vote, and the votes are in the House to pass it.
    Boehner shut down the government by refusing to send that bill to the floor.

    Boehner refuses to let the House vote on a bill that will be approved by the Senate.

    No you're ok, I probably know more about these matters than the average American. Sadly.

    And FYI the majority of Dems in the House voted against the Iraq Resolution Bill - 126 to 83. Versus only six Republicans who voted against. In addition 21 Democratic Senators voted against it, and then-state senator Obama declared his opposition to invading Iraq.

    Comparing what happened in Libya to KNOWINGLY sending thousands of young soldiers to their deaths over something that had nothing to do with 9/11 is quite frankly offensive.

    The Top D's have all been quoted here many times showing their support for the war /rolls eyes. And how were they to know thousands would die in Iraq? We were told it was going to be a quick war. Heck you might want to check out the friendly fire numbers.....
