More personnel sent to WWII memorial than Benghazi
2013-10-03
[WASHINGTONEXAMINER] The National Park Service is sending so many officials out to shut down federal parks that it might have to suspend furloughs if the government closure continues.

-- At the World War II Memorial on The Mall in Washington, where veterans have been staging protests to keep it open, Washington Examiner's Charlie Spiering reports that at least seven officials were dispatched Wednesday morning to set up a ring of barricades to block tourists from the memorial. That is two more than the State Department had in Benghazi a year ago on the night of the terrorist attack that killed four, including the U.S. ambassador.

#6  As I expected, some of my liberal friends on Facebook are claiming this was all a show put on by the Republicans and didn't happen. Willfully blind and stupid is no way to go through life.

#5  Ummm, that works AGAINST the government.

If few visitors are Dem, them most are republicans, and against Obama, and Obamacare, then Obama wants to anger them?

A few thousand WW2 vets angry seems to be suicide.

#4  The Obama regime has calculated correctly that few visitors to patriotic memorials are likely to be from the Democratic voting block, so .... f%#k them.

#3  About anything that is a GS-12 or above or SES at the NPS has identified itself as 'expendable' if the government ever comes back. We've already heard 'I was just obeying orders'. No sale. Wonder what they'll do if the states decide to relieve the NPS of their burden since they can't do their job?
