The Kock brothers will benefit by a shutdown. With their billions, they will become more powerful. Sadly, we lack a 007 to remedy the catastrophe. Boner can't see the lose/lose situation he is in.
Soon, we will be taking to the streets, and some of the damn tea party collaborators will be joining us, many without even the good sense to realize remorse. I don't remember ever feeling so grim about a political situation. I wish I had even a tiny bit of hope, but, the only people who can stop this fiasco, want it to happen. Which is what makes it so dangerous. See you in the streets.

It's "Koch brothers" and "Boehner".

and the Speaker's name has some wild pronunciation, that it sounds like a long A and not a long O.
