So I took a trip to right wing bubble land to see what they're saying about the shutdown

They all appear to be obsessed and angry with the closing of war memorials due to the shutdown.

They're basically saying Obama hates America and is closing the memorials because he hates the military.



Did those fucking idiots not realize that the shutdown would lead to the closure of those memorials?

Idiots!!!

In 1995 and 2013, it was the President's fault...

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense!

But really, no less stupid. They see themselves as "civilized" conservatives, which given the cannibalistic hate-orgy that seems to happen when other groups of the things get together, might even be true!

If I were this President, I'd make sure it shut down too. The GOP has no leadership, no strategy, horrible press relations, and utterly inept planning.

Part of this is on the John McCains of the GOP. But, frankly, there's a lot of blame to spread around.

We either get our act together, or we'll be extinct two General Elections from now.


Well, maybe the GOP needs to totally die off for something better to rise from the ashes. Cause normally, when I see a member of the GOP on TV, I want to either fall asleep or puke. They are so freaking worthless, it's mind-numbing.


They are identical to all of the commie dems! All are commie POS NWO progressive scumbags!

There isn't a dime's difference between them!

SCREW THEM ALL BECAUSE THEY ARE ALL SCREWING US ALL OVER!


And then one of the liberal hangers-on posts, and they all start going after him instead of continuing their internal landslide .
