Why Obama & Co. Want a Shutdown
2013-10-01
h/t Belmont
The short narrative, compiled by people with even shorter memories, is that the United States government got to the brink of a shutdown because the unreasonable House Republicans refused to get over their obsession with putting an end to Obamacare before it is fully implemented.

The real story is a lot more complicated than that...
Belmont's comment
...politicians are like cats. You can't tell from the caterwauling whether they're fighting or mating.

#3  Obama was gun ho for a confrontation on Syria as well. The longer this goes on, even with the sheep of his Propaganda Machine baying "it's the Trunks fault", people will start to blame both sides. Meanwhile the Obama version of MVD on steroids will start to bite even Mr. Low Information in the next couple of months who'll suddenly take notice. Playing for time is not in his favor. People will clearly remember their personal experience over the message.

#2  "Tip" O'Neill was always the real power in DC. Check all, all his connections. There is a story to be told.
