Twice in the past 20 years the GOP has shut down the Government.
When people think about government shutdown, they think Republican.

In 10 hours, when the shutdown becomes reality the Repigs will initially celebrate.
"Yeah, we shut 'er down!!"

But when the actual reality and repercussions of a Shutdown begin to be felt by the American People,
you will witness a GOP civil war followed by a broken John Boehner compromising with the Democrats.

This is nothing but a losing proposition for them.

1. They actually shut it down two separate times in 95. Just learned that last night.
So that's three total.

Getting a clue yet public?

2. That footage of Pence? or the teabagger saying "shut it down"
should be played in a loop.
