I'm torn.

I absolutely abhor that repugs forced a shutdown in DC, but at the same time, since it already happened, I'm glad that the repugs are showing themselves for who they truly are, assholes that have never cared about it's their constituents and the rest of the nation's populace as a whole. It may cost them the house in 2014.

But, at what price? At the price of people suffering at the moment because of the repugs false grand stand? Just to see them lose the house in the future? People are hurting because of the repugs refusal to vote on a clean bill and as a result, I'm hurting too, among other things, my grand-nieces had to stop attending Head-Start schooling.

I'm pissed off but at the same time I'm glad. It's hurting people but at the same time it's hurting the GOP brand.

I'm torn.

But I wish they would get a clue about good governance.
This is a great ad and should be shown non stop.
