Obama on the tube about shutdown

[GunnyGene]

Watching this now on the tv news. Military and vet's pay and retirement will be delayed if govt shuts down.
As I mentioned in another thread, the junior troops cannot live with this. And many retiree's depend on that pension to meet mortgage and other debts.

This is a threat from Obama. He's going to make it as painful as possible for as many people as possible to get his bullshit ACA up and running. :x :x

What he's not saying is that the subsidies for it will cost everyone.

Lock and load. :x

This does have a lot to do with Obama's attitude, success in elections and "transforming America":

Intentionally or not, Monday on Morning Joe, Time's Mark Halperin revealed to the world how the American media's pro-Obama bias will in part be to blame for any coming government shutdown. When asked if President Obama had an incentive to negotiate with the GOP, Halperin explained that, "The White House does not have much incentive. They think the trends are going to go in their direction at the end of the week, or early next week at the latest; because again, the press is largely sympathetic to their arguments on this."
In short: The government is going to shut down because Obama knows the media has his back and therefore feels no pressure to enter into negotiations that might avert a shutdown. In fact, Obama is apparently okay letting the government shut down because he knows the media won't make him pay a political price for it.

Obama's retirement home will be the 9th circle of Dante's inferno:

Bolgia 9: In the ninth Bolgia, a sword-wielding demon hacks at the Sowers of Discord, dividing parts of their bodies as in life they divided others. As they make their rounds the wounds heal, only to have the demon tear apart their bodies again.

He will be neighbors with the corrupt politicians in Congress:

Bolgia 5: Corrupt politicians (barrators) are immersed in a lake of boiling pitch, which represents the sticky fingers and dark secrets of their corrupt deals.
