Even if we have to spend extra money to show you how bad our fonances are…

Why, if you won’t stay out of our parks, then we will remove the handles from the water fountains just to make you extra more unhappy.

Petulance.

Barry: You look like an ass more and more every day

So the veil of competence is being torn from the face of government.

As is the veil of respectability.

And people are beginning to wonder why they have to obey the orders of the minions of the government. The actions of the Obama administration, in that the capricious blocking of certain parks and other portions of our government apparatus in an attempt to cause the greatest possible inconvenience to the American people irritates us and shows that the Administration considers us stupid enough to believe the hype and undermines the respect that we (generally) had for our government and our leaders.

It could be that the Obama administration is trying to anger enough people by inconveniencing them in the hope that the people will pressure their legislators to fold.

Instead it is encouraging disobedience. Lots and lots of disobedience. People are posting and tweeting their disobedience without fear of reprisal.

What is happening instead of people begging for their government to continue as it was is that people are realizing that they really don’t need (or care) for that government.

If the petty, vindictive actions of our government.continue, there will be more civil disobedience.

And if the government continues it’s actions, eventually, civil war.

Most people, conservative or liberal, upper, middle or lower class are decent people, not wishing to engage in a fight. Most are passive and choose other paths than fighting.

If they can.
If those other paths actually change things. If the government doesn’t continue to ratchet up the pressure.

But piss them off enough, give them a good enough reason, and even those passive people will stand up and say “ENOUGH!”.

How much longer will the Obama folks keep up the pressure? How many people have suddenly realized that they can only visit a park if Barry says so, or risk arrest?

How many have just, in the last few days, felt the urge to go to a federal park, just because some guy says that they can’t?

How long until people’s anger makes them realize that disobedience isn’t so bad, and that the consequences aren’t either.

And how many steps is it from civil disobedience to civil war?

Ask yourself: Why is that?

Think any government police will stand up and ever say “No!”.

Think again. Treating old folks like they were common trash.

All because their supervisors told ’em to.

Lots of stories like this, but you’ll never hear ’em on the media.

With the shutdown, and the closure of the parks and all the rest of the irritating things Barry has done…

Obama wants to teach us how much we need a powerful federal government.

I see how dangerous a vindictive government can be if it is angered….and how little we need such a government.

So was the Fugitive Slave Act.

And the law says that we have to pay the interest on our debts….

Won’t this really just be a spending cut? Won’t our government, for the first time in a long time, actually have to cut spending until the budget is actually balanced? Where there can be no deficit spending? Where we cannot spend more than we take in?

I see no crash, unless you are dependent on the gubmint for your livelihood, be it as a worker or as a welfare/SNAP/EBT/etc. recipient.

Perhaps, for once, if the GOP stands firm, we can actually have a chance at cutting some government bloat and waste.

Then the big fight over what to cut will begin.

But this will, at least, be a beginning.

“Lockbox”my ass.

They took your money and spent it, now they want to get an increase in their credit line so their checks won’t bounce when they give you your money (that they forced you to cough up) back.

Seems that the National Mall isn’t closed to everyone. Just to some of us.

Some animals are more equal than others.

Since “there isn’t any money” is the excuse to close all the parks, then how can there be money  to have or deal with the rally?

WWII vets = Bad. Us Citizens wanting to enjoy their national parks = Bad. Folks wanting amnesty fr people breaking immigration law = Good.

So only “approved” people can use the parks?

Selective enforcement of the law is one definition of tyrrany.
