well, thank god they at least cut a deal to let the service academies play football saturday. i know people were on edge, holding out hope they could watch navy play air force.
priorities, people!!
and repubs are also up in arms, and asking for an investigation on the oh so important 'who closed the ww2 memorial' issue.
i mean, to heck with fha loans and slowing the recently resurrected housing industry...wic program ending payment, etc. no one cares if people can eat, but by god, they need to be able to get into a monument.
when the govt shuts down, the first thing that should happen is congress gets nothing. no money, no benefits, no perks, nothing.
