They probably lost some just for doing it to begin with.
Yes shut it down, who flipping cares anyways.

How is it always only the REPUBS fault of a Shut Down? How is it that the Demos always get their part in it cut out of the scenario?t

The Republicans are the ones who spear headed shutting down the government even though the AFA legally passed through the House and Senate.

And it's bad to shut the government down😂You are so pro big government you could not function without them.
Pathetic, learn to think for yourself.
Oh its far to late for him to ever do that ever again.
Originally posted by Time-ImmemorialYou can laugh all you want. You haven't actually addressed my point which is that the government shutdown had it continued for longer would have looked bad on the Republicans. Perception is important even if you believe shutting the government down is good or bad the perceived notion of of most people is that it is bad because it shutting down services and jobs people need.

Of course it did shut down services and jobs people need but that's a different talk. You also once again are assuming you know how I live my life or what I need in my life. Of course you most likely have used a tremendous amount of government provided services you're just refuse to acknowledge them. Things like public roads and schools.
Originally posted by Time-ImmemorialMy comment was in regards to yours about who would care if the government was shutdown.
I don't care what it makes the republicans look like. Have you not figured that out yet? You cling to these party lines like it's your last hope they will save you.When are you going to think for yourself?
It had nothing to do about drawing party lines as the Republicans do care if the government is shutdown for too long because it negatively impacts their image to the voters.
It also hurts people that do rely on the government because they have a government job or they receive services from the government. So they probably care about a government shutdown.
Also at this point you continue to judge and make ignorant claims such as thinking for myself or that I look to the parties to save me. You've been doing it so often it's getting annoying because it holds no bearing what I'm saying. You should stop personally attacking me about things you do not know anything about.
Tell me who has been hurt by a government shutdown. Quit pulling claims out your ass. It's getting old.
The government might get things resolved in a shut down and all you care about is some random people that "might be affected" rather then the whole country fixing itself and spring less money in the process.
You haven't proved anything you just think your long posts prove them selves. They don't.
Originally posted by Time-ImmemorialI'm sure the 800 000 employees that were given a leave of absence weren't too happy about not getting paid. Or the 1.3 million that didn't know when their next paycheck was coming even though they were allowed to report for work.

Also I'm pretty sure costing 24 billion to prove a point was so very helpful to our economy.
More limbo jumbo, no facts or sources. But let's say I believe you on your word.
Guess what all those people get retroactive back pay.
Obama spent $500,000,000 on a failed Syrian strategy and going to spend another $600 million yet you remain silent on that.
I know what your motives are and your agenda, and it's pathetic.

Fox breaking news says Boehner will resign in October. This is great news for conservatives
Do you think it is great news strategically for conservatives or that it is a win in the sense that they want it, but it'll actually be harmful to them in the long run? Cause I think it will be the latter tbh

I think it's the former because Boehner is dicking up the image of conservatives in this country. He's making conservatives seem like the "party of no", when its' really him.

You think he will be replaced with someone more willing to compromise? After all the recent attack came from a wing that wants to say even more "no"
