Hey! The Government Is Shut Down!

[Firestorm]

I knew today felt better somehow Suppose we can keep 'em shut down for, say, 20 or 30 years?

I vote for 200 or 300 years. It'll take that long to fix the mess they've made for us.

[Reeltarded]

No they aren't shut anything. I still see their lips moving.

[vibratoking]

I don't care how many days, weeks, or months they're shut down. Just needs to be long enough for everyone to realize that we don't need'em.

[Firestorm]

How about if they just do the 13, 17, 21 (whatever) things they're actually authorised to do. I could live with a limited government. Me and Paine and Jefferson and Madison and Washington. Those guys.

They stopped serving "We, the people" years ago. As far as i'm concerned, they're all a bunch of mutha-effin terrorists. So ashamed of what this once-great nation has become.

[Reeltarded]

Actually, the do serve wethepeople for brunch at their caucasses.

Soylent Red. White and Blue; it's people.

Not to worry people; Obama is on this. He's a Democrat, and is a trustee of the common peoples values, aspirations and concerns.

No one ever said it would be a smooth road battling the landed aristocracy and the Republicans who are entrenched in power, and have no real concerns for the middle class, the poor, the disenfranchised, ;let alone the homeless and suffering.

We are now trying to pry the corrupt power out of the souless establishments hands, and we will, even if they are cold and dead.

[sepulchre]

All I heard that's actually closed are the Parks.

crap.

That's the part of the government I really like.

[galtjunk]

We are only getting the government that we deserve.

[cbass]

I'm sick of the Democrats.

I'm sick of (most, but not all of) the Republicans.

I'm sick of the people that view their fellow citizens as potentials for being "cold and dead". I'm sick of their agendas, and their poisonous ideology, and their ignorance, and their Marxist mentality.

The Constitution is dead. Long live the Constitution.

As I get older I keep thinking that all elected office positions should be filled by random draft of citizens akin to the Jury process. Filter with the age minimums set for each position, then each chosen citizen serves the appointed 1-term limit, no chance for re-draft. I could use a Senator's salary for a few years......

I'm tired of the Gov't Elite attitude. Why should they be exempt from what they push on us? After all it IS supposed to be "good" for us, right?

I also feel that there should be no more than a total of 12 years allowed in office, either in Congress or Senate. That gives two years to become established and ten for politics. Any more than 10 years and the good-old-boy network becomes too entrenched and they lose touch with the common good of the people. Yes, we tax payers ARE being taken advantage of.

Fire 'em all, time to start anew.

Anyone else here getting more quality time at home due to furlough?
