US government shutdown - your thoughts?

[uls]

...shut down by Democrats without talking about it.

again, it is not the Democrats who shut down the US govt

it's the Republicans

Republicans won't come up with a clean budget bill

all they had to do was pass a clean budget bill and the US govt continues operating

that's all they had to do

but noooo..... Republicans used the budget talk to defund, delay, repeal Obamacare

hindi dapat ni-ne-negoitiate ang Obamacare during the budget talk

hindi dapat

paikot ikot lang tayo

---

desperado mga Republican

the only way they could corner the Democrats on Obamacare is to use the budget talk

now they're using the debt ceiling to corner Democrats
