3. The issue isn't about the shut down...It is when the WH will ever Fight.

Lets be honest...(R) won again. But we all knew the WH and (D)s would give in....
The real tragedy is that the (R)s know once again that if they hold things hostage they can get as much as possible. Sure they dont get 100% but getting 70,80,90% of what you wanted is pretty damn good..especially when you only control 1/3 of government.

The tea party arent happy because they are greedy and want 100%, not 90% and this is what happens when you have one side so emboldened to not fear the other side.

It is time to not give the Queen before negotiations begin because my fear is that we will continue to lose again and again....and be happy to be walking home with nothing to show for it.

5. Agreed

4. The Chamber of Commerce

All those government contractors would have lost a lot of money.
