You aren't going to win over the "teabaggers that work around military bases in the southern Red states" be permanently destroying their jobs; ergo any happy dancing over fallout from a temporary shutdown would premature.

thus, any premise you do not agree with insults your intelligence and grants you the right to be rude and condescending to other posters? really?

Are you even paying attention to the conversation? It's like the singular point I made since coming into this thread just sailed overhead. It's not that hard, dude. It's right here for easy review. Or are you insulting me again by asserting I'm too stupid to remember my own point?
