It's real footage but not "live". Funny anyway. He's actually just 'checking the locks' before he and 'MO' head off to Martha's Vine yard'. Like Obama has always said: "If you want something done right you have to do it yourself!"
Someone missed the point. (It's you!) - - - Updated - - - Precisely. Bad gamble, Barry. Hahahahaha!!!
Oh? Really? Ya think? Let me educate you. We will have the House for the next decade, no matter what else happens. That is a result of the massive republican victories at the state level, before the last census, and redistricting. So, even if we fail in this gambit, we can continue to shut down the government, whenever we please. Ten years, Brah. You mad?
Hey, they know the game. And if they don't? Then they are fools. I didn't get to stand around and holler when my income went down during the recession. I was busy finding work, so I could feed my kids. So, those Navy guys? They can kiss my ass. Welcome to the real world.
Learned that there are about a MILLION (900,000+) Federal employees we don't need to keep on the taxpayer teat...
Oh I see so, if the country is not run how you want it.................just shut'er down. We all know this about getting Obama, not doing what's best for the US - Like a bunch spoiled children fighting in the local day care
The precedence has already been set for 'furloughed' federal employees to be PAID IN FULL for not working during the shut down. You think they don't do much routinely, how do you feel about paying them for staying home?
And by the way, what is "best for the US"?!? No such thing. We are individuals. The shutdown suits me just fine. And go to Hell if you don't like it. 'Kay?
This is one reason we can be sure they won't let it shut down too extensively or stay that way for too long - people would start to realise how pleasant life is without Big Brother
Yep. Day two, and Obama already invited congressional leaders up to the castle... He's a real tough guy, that Barry...
IT was another fine day in az, too... not too hot, sunny, great weather. I had a hawaiian beer, & did not miss the doe or dea having to cut back. They've always gotten paid before, & i'm sure they will now, too. So instead of them sitting in some cubicle doing nothing & getting paid, they can stay home & do nothing & get paid. 16% of the population works for the federal govt!!! We can't afford to support that many people, just on the federal tit! Add the state & locals, & we are being screwed by bureaucracy. It's bad enough with criminals & the destructive elements of society, we also have to PAY for this elite ruling class to waste our labors. Our govt, in it's infinite wisdom, feels they can better use our money than we can. There has never been but one question in all civilization-how to keep a few men from saying to many men: You work and earn bread and we will eat it. ~Abraham Lincoln

Yeah. Should I go against my judgement? I'm a pretty successful person. So far, most of the ideas I've lived by have worked out just like people told me they would... Should I deny all of the experiences that tell me what is right, and what works, and come take a chance in the land of unicorn farts with you? I think not. Life is too good over here. I work hard, I'm happy, and liberals hate it. What more could you ask for?!?
The more broader issue is these families and programs being dependent on "Government funding" anyway. I find it deplorable that we've only exercised 3% of our resources into education, I find it deplorable that millions of families are impoverished while Washington gets big fat checks.
Yeah that democracy thing is a real burden isn't it. All them little pions should know their place and be grateful for your wisdom and guiding hand in showing them the way to the light
Where is the big stock market crash? Remember when we went into sequestration? We were supposed to go into total melt down then too. What really happened is we actually started seeing some slight improvement in the economy at that point. How about a little common sense cutting of spending for a change?
Just show the debt clock rolling backwards like an out of control industrial-sized cooling fan. That ought to do it.
The trend is down in the stock market. Happy to say at this point mine are up, but........... Have to add..Ben will keep on printing that is why the stock market is still going strong.
LOL ... I think he's merely beating his chest as an individual ... this is because he's come to the awful realization that conservatives have become sheeple waving around the tea party manifesto like little maoists ... serious ... Ted Cruz the Canadian socialist communist is the new messiah ? LOL.
Wouldn't that be a hoot and a half if Fox News were to quietly feature something like that on all its show segments for the duration of the shutdown? Just show it in the background and never say a word about it . . . and then watch the mainstream media go ballistic.
How did you ask a question about something I never said? They were on the government teat, as Federal employees. Try to keep up.
