There's nothing tiny about what these anti-science, anti-tech and anti-America being a first world country are doing.

There's nothing tiny about what these anti-science, anti-tech and anti-America being a first world country are doing.

Here's a thought. How about you get off your ass and go do some fucking science or technological advances instead of waiting for the government spoon feed you.

Without government you can't fucking function?

It's 18%, period. No point trying to spin it.
Has the world ended?
If Obama hadn't ordered open air monuments closed no one would have noticed.

Gutting our ability to stay ahead in science is handing everything to china.

The tea party is a threat to America's lead in the world.

Clearly you have no perspective of how big our federal government is. Just because it is 18%, it doesn't mean it is a small portion.

There's nothing tiny about what these anti-science, anti-tech and anti-America being a first world country are doing.

I must live on a different planet than you. On my planet the US had a fusion reactor produce more power than it used for the first time ever, even thought the government was shut down. Have you considered moving?

 

[The Rabbi]

LOL! You didnt actually write that, did you?
Do you consider 18% of anything to be a big portion of the whole?

 

[LordBrownTrout]

So far they're up to a two week paid vacation that doesn't count against their regular accrued days. If I worked for the fed I'd tell them to keep fighting each other.

If Obama hadn't ordered open air monuments closed no one would have noticed.

Or the intentional closing of roads that strand children from their parents.

Its a good lesson though. Obama will deliberately do what it takes to harm citizens for his little tantrum, while the country gets a look at their governments bloat.

It means that 82% of the government is up and conducting business.

That also means creating far to much mischief as well.

My sister works under the CBO. She is furloughed.

I'll bet she'll take money she did not earn when she returns to work, won't she?

Explain to Me why I should care?

This is the kind of defeat the republicans are facing in 2014 for the house

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_House_election,_1874

 

[Billy000]

LOL! You didnt actually write that, did you?
Do you consider 18% of anything to be a big portion of the whole?

Clearly I meant 18% of the federal government is large amount of people given the size of the federal government. If you're too stupid to understand that, I don't know what else to tell you.

If you were elected to office, would you..

a. Save a child in danger without considering how it would affect your reelection or;

b. Consider the best way to blame your opponent for the child being in danger and use it to get yourself elected yet again?

There is no other options to the question.

You can't express yourself and it's my fault?

Define "large". You can't.

It's your fault if you can't understand what I am implying. Coming from a retard who thinks homosexuality is a disease, I can't say I am worried about what you think of the way I worded something.

You want me to define large? How idiotic are you? A half a million people is large.

I didnt realize you were a retard who thought homosexuality was a disease. Who knew?
A half a million people is not large int he context of 5 billion on Earth. You fail.
