Congressional Showdown

So, once more we come to the brink of a governmental shutdown because politics becomes more important than governing for the common good.  Just as the Democrats did when they failed to pass the fiscal year 2011 budgets the Republican's now put self serving politics in front of the governing.

It is unfortunate we can't come together as a collective group and vote everyone out, but why should we expect from the Congress any behavior that is different then what we exhibit.

A fan for an opposing team is beaten senseless outside of a Dodgers game.  Union teachers threaten the state politicians.  When a Congresswoman is shot by a deranged man, the media blames Sarah Palin.  I wonder if the Roman's blamed the Goth's for their problems?

I agree. Did you know Congress still gets paid during a shutdown?
