#2 Obama Shows 'Resolve and Strength' By Shutting Government

Taking the Tea Party's approach to government. However, as long as 'he' does it, it's OK.

#4 Virginia-based trade publication Politico says that President B.O. is winning by shutting down the government.

Well, alright. Doesn't the 'shutting down' of big government actually make us all winners? The stock market appears to be reacting positively, at least initially.

#5 market set to tank upon opening today

the drop is mostly based on the debt limit issue rather than the govt shutdown

#6 Agreed on the stock market drop being tied to no debt ceiling increase: the market dropped when Bernnake indicated he was going to ease up on Quantitative easing. The market is riding a bubble, so anything even remotely threatening the bubble will cause a downturn.

Expect the Wall Street supporters of the GOP to make some phone calls today...

#7 Wall Street supporters of the GOP RINOs

FIFY. Crony capitalists do not want a free market, but one they can manipulate. Just calling says it all.

#8 Does he show "Resolve and Strength" Using the people as pawns?

Shutting down "Open Air' tourist attractions is simply whiny, petty, spite, like closing the Veterans Memorial,(People whostormed the Japanese aren't fazed by barracades, this pettiness has already backfired once on him once.

Let's make it well known,and watch (And publicize) any future fuckups. (There WILL be more, he's hard of learning)

#9 You know these moonbats with their lightworker remind me of a father of a "special" child "mainstreaming" in my son's class. The poor kid is driven psychotically violent by stress: he understands neither the teacher in class, nor the rules governing other kids' games during the breaks. Nevertheless, his loving father remains convinced that his offspring is both bright and good. And it's all the fault of bad kids who tease him. He actually took to lecturing the children about how bad they are until told to shut up or meet the cops.
