Will the govt shutdown Nov 17 [View all]

So it seems like there is very little reporting on the potential shutdown. I did read the latest bill was pulled by the GOP. These GOP clowns can't find their asses with both their hands, so that does not instill confidence. Tempering my thoughts, a shutdown would be bad for an assortment of reasons and any sane reasonable politicians would extend the budget to avoid the dramatic consequences. I'm just not so sure they wouldn't do it out of spite or meanness.
