We are witnessing a moment where dickering over ~$6 billion, when the gap between what the govt takes in and what it spends is 2,333 times that amount each year, and more than 6 times that EVERY DAY is becoming KABUKI.
From Drudge:
DNC FACEBOOK event calls for dumping trash at Boehner's house...
Dickering on Budget Goes Down to Wire...
Pelosi calls GOP plan 'war on women'...
Dem: Shutdown 'equivalent of bombing innocent civilians'...
Jesse Jackson compares to Civil War...
Congress doesn't shut down during a 'shutdown'...
Negotiators differ by $6.5 billion...
BOEHNER: 'When will the White House and Senate Democrats get serious about cutting spending?'
REID: GOP wants shutdown to keep 'women from getting cancer screenings'...
The WaPo fact checker has completely scourged Pelosi and now her ridiculous anthologies have been picked up by Reid as he is TRYING TO PROTECT FEDERAL SEIZURE OF INCOME FOR THE PURPOSES THAT SOME (not I, at least in the first weeks) CONSIDER MURDER (Planned Parenthood funds ..going to abortion). After being called, no Planned Parenthood Clinic seems to be offering mammograms (what does that have to do with BIRTH CONTROL?)
Jesse Jackson apparently has stopped taking his Lithium and Zoloft.
While this STUPID controversy will really do almost nothing to halt the national fiscal crisis, the iconic and symbolic fight may have some importance IF there is a shutdown and the public sides with those who WISH TO CONTROL THAT PROBLEM.
The real battle will center on Ryan, whose budget ideas will certainly be presented by the Republican house. Of course THERE IS NO BUDGET from the democrats who find it far easier to simply take pot shots at LEADERS.
No public program to help the needy will survive to help them if we, the USA, fail.
Why this is not obvious, and keeping democrats up most if not all nights is beyond me. Instead they APPEAR to be merely scheming politically to EXPAND programs which get them votes, accelerating the process which will collapse the programs they wish to use to KEEP THEIR JOBS.
If we have reached the point where an entire party cannot do anything other than what they appear to be doing, the nation is IN EXTREMIS.
Perhaps then, the shutdown will be the defining moment.
God help those who will lose paychecks as pawns for Reid's Planned Parenthood falsehoods, and Pelosi's OUTRIGHT LIES over 6 million old people being deprived of food.

Hi Epaminondas.
I completely agree any 'sane' person should realise by now that the democrats have lost all sence of reason.
It's no longer about governing the country, but it's their goal to bring the country down so that they can grab total power,there's no other explanation.
I can't believe in a nation with, what - 200 million guns - ANYONE can contemplate trying to seize control.
I simply do NOT understand WHAT THEY DON'T GET ABOUT THE IMPENDING PROBLEMS.
There's simply something missing.
