Government is punishing us!
Well, not quite . . .The gummint did not cherry pick what to shut down. Contrary to the rumor mill rampant on the blogosphere and the right wing talk shows, mistakes were made, yes. After all it has been 17 years since the last "real" shutdown, and few Federal employees are still around to remember what has to be done and what really shouldn't be done.
If you read this article from Friday's AJC (republished Sunday, 10/13/13) you can see that the reportage hasn't been good on this. No, the President did not order "his" golf course to stay open while commissaries were closed. Read, and be informed, before you spout incorrect info.
Shutdown choices prompt accusations of White House favoritism
