Where's the earth shattering kaboom??

[DiamondDave]

The hard line lefties made it sound like the 'shutdown' of the government was going to be horrific... (like most anything is really shut down)... the fear tactics were laughable on this.. and I honestly believe that the longer it would go on, the more they look like fools

A couple of buddies of mine, with the interior, were laughing this morning, on their way to NM to do some flyfishing.

^^ Now read this and other Repubs gloating or making light of the govt shutdown then ask yourself "Why do people blame republicans?"

Its like they are laughing at the scene of a fire and they wonder how they became a person of interest

 

[LordBrownTrout]

They work for the govt. This is all a big joke to them. It's not affecting them like all the chicken littles are claiming.

Kind of like their commitment to the country.

I don't mean to be rude, but this thread is dense. On many levels. For starters, it's only 830 in the morning in some parts of the Country.

Continuing on, much of the impact will be in people not collecting a paycheck. Is today pay day? Probably not. Dense, dense, dense.

They received back pay last time and will this time also.

If the families of government workers go broke and get hungry enough, they'll buckle down to business...fast.

1) The government is NOT shut down
2) There is nobody dying in the streets
3) Life is going on like usual
4) More of the government should be shut down because it is beyond the scope of ots power anyway
5) You are an idiot

Good thing Mortgage Companies take IOU's

I don't wish to be rude, but the dire consequences of the sequestration did not come about, and neither will they for this minor shutdown.

Do the deaths start later then?? Do the morlocks come and start hunting the helpless tomorrow??

I have been thru the 'shutdowns' before as an enlisted soldier... I got my pay eventually.. it will be the same way this time.. nothing essential is lost, employees will still get paid, and the government will continue to waste money in areas it has no business in

Millions of people are and have been out of work under this administration. Now, you have compassion?

Probably don't. Why not ask those who lost their homes due to Obama not working on the economy as he said he would?

Seems we have record numbers of people who have completely given up on looking for work. I wonder if they're mortgage companies accepted their IOU's?

Actually this is one reason the left tried so hard to scare the Republicans into not shutting down the government. Their fear wasn't that there would be catastrophe, their fear was that there would not be catastrophe.

What do you call 100K laid off Federal workers? A start...

The dire consequences? The starvations? The entitlement junkies getting kicked out of their government housing?

It was the far left DEMs that were screaming how tragic it was that the evil evil HoR was going to 'let' the government shut down
