Blue Ridge hotel defies Park Service shutdown

[Duped]

Each spiteful move is no doubt coming from the king!

 

[boedicca]

This guy has become so comically obvious in his child-like wielding of political power that he might as well be named Obama Jung Un.

Obama is the unholy love child of Kim Jong Un and Dennis Rodman.

When it costs more to shut something down than to leave it alone?

Security and upkeep.

SF cops are not federal employees and the money the restaurants make more than pay for the upkeep. Now the taxpayers lose the money from the lease and the income tax and payroll taxes that the employees would pay if Obama didn't put them out of work.

Keep on sucking.

What the fuck is so difficult for you people to understand? If the government can't pay to secure and maintain it's property then they have to close it! Are there exceptions? Yes. Should that restaurant be allowed to remain open? Yes. Should kids be allowed to build sand castles? Yes. Can the government accommodate every single exception? No!

Obama didn't chase away frightened babies from any beaches! If you really want to help these people call up Boehner and tell him to allow the damn vote!

National Parks are shut down because we have furloughed the staff that protects them, keeps them clean, etc etc.

You started out OK, but you need to call up Harry Reid and have him allow the vote. The bill Boehner passed to fund these things, and a lot more are in Reid's in basket. That is, if he didn't throw them in the shit can.

Funny how everyone who was defending the government isn't here now that they admitted they were wrong.

 

[MACAULAY]

Were you expecting 0 repercussions from a shutdown?

........................................................................

I was. Except of course for the Chicago style politics.

Obama and the rest of his Big Government socialists are scared shitless that the Folks will see that you can shut down 15% of the Federal Government...and nobody will even notice...so they are making fools of themselves trying to make it hurt...at least a little.

I say shut down another 15%....including the Air Force Base golf course he spends so much of his time on.

When that gathering of illegal vomit meets at the mall where real Americans are not allowed, a million bickers, truckers and other patriots should block there way in and out. After civil disobedience fails, violence would the only remaining tool. A massive street brawl with heavy losses to police, NPS assholes and especially illegal filth and their supporters would be a glorious sight to behold.

never happen as most Tea Baggers are cowards.

You say from the anonymity and security of your keyboard.

There are a number of money-making areas in SF that are closed right now because of this shutdown, including Muir Woods and Alcatraz. This is what Republicans wanted, why are we all supposed to be surprised that things are actually closing?

"The politicians' gym stays open, but the Washington Mall closes — except for an immigration rally. National parks close, but presidential golf courses stay open. This is one politicized government shutdown.
President Obama has made the public at large feel as much pain as possible from a government shutdown he's betting will ultimately be blamed on Republicans; meanwhile, he and other politicians shield themselves from the pain."

Politicization Of Shutdown Yet Another Obama Scandal Needing Probe - Investors.com

""Grocery stores on Army bases in the U.S. are closed," Bloomberg News reports. "The golf course at Andrews Air Force base is open." As Tim Toth of Americans For Limited Government found: "Since Obama's much-maligned sequester hit Washington, the president has teed off for 30 rounds of golf. That's 540 holes, or 1,000 hours of golf, not including 19th-hole time."
A 56-year-old jogger was fined $100 by park rangers on Sunday for running in Valley Forge National Historical Park in Pennsylvania. But as Obama-friendly ThinkProgress.org reports, politicians are still exercising: "The exclusive gyms available only to members of Congress have remained open throughout the shutdown" — featuring a taxpayer-funded heated pool, basketball and paddleball courts, sauna, steam room and TVs."


"Elderly tourists at Yellowstone National Park were threatened with trespassing charges by park rangers just for stopping their bus to photograph bison, the Washington Times reports, then were ordered to stop "recreating" and "return to your hotel and stay there." Of course, their $300 fee hasn't been returned.
The seniors were even turned away from the bathrooms of a private dude ranch within the park under threat of its license being revoked.
Meanwhile, House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi thanked President Obama for "enabling us to gather here" and conduct an AFL-CIO and SEIU-sponsored immigration amnesty rally on the "closed due to shutdown" National Mall in Washington."



Obama Jong Un is clownishly obvious and shamelessly hypocritical in deliberately screwing with the American people for the sake of his little political 'performance.'

The libs are going to be soooo pissed when our tyrannical government posts guards to prevent them from using national forest roads to access their fave ski resorts!!!

I think that's when the violence will start.

The Cayenne is FASTER around the 'Ring than a 911 Turbo.

My Caddy has stiff springs, 9C1 swaybars, and an Impala SS fast-ratio steering box.

"Faster" isn't the point. Centre of gravity is. Speed has no practical function.

Wanna know why?

Bring your Caddy to one end of the Dragon's Tail. I'll meet you there in my Mini Cooper. Then I'll wait for you at the other end. After lunch probably.

Do you or do you not know what the Nurburgring is?

News flash: you could not keep a Cayenne Turbo in SIGHT of your Mini, on the 'Ring OR on the Dragon! Yes, the Cayenne DOES handle...well enough to beat a 911 around a roadcourse!

 

[Jarlaxle]

Oh, this is really good. The NPS-Gestapo has removed the handles from water spigots, to prevent people from getting a drink of water.


In what looks like a spiteful move, the NPS even removed handles from water spigots along the Chesapeake and Ohio canal where bikers and joggers exercise as well as along the Great Allegheny Passage, just to ensure people don't get any water from them.

SERIOUSLY? National Park Service spitefully removes handles from water fountains - U.s. - Catholic Online

How long before someone "adjusts" a water spigot by the simple method of smashing it with a rock?

 

[Mr. H.]

LOL. I'm noted as the "thread starter". I guess there was some merging?

For sure. The hypocrisy is mind numbing sometimes, The Obama worshippers accuse Boehner of not allowing a vote on one bill sent to them by the Senate. But it was just fine and dandy for Harry Reid to refuse to allow the Senate to even debate, much less vote on the four bills the House sent to the Senate. Each one would have ended the government shut down.

 

[hazlnut]

Harry Reid is the primary reason for this shutdown strolling.
