Shutdown Pain Was Intentional

Since Obamacare is going so well, Democrats want to talk about the government shutdown instead.  The link below leads to an article about the hypocrisy of the Congressional Republicans who are not rushing to compensate individuals who suffered loss during the shutdown.  If we are talking hypocrisy, don't you think our Dear Leader spent more time making the shutdown hurt than he did testing his healthcare web site?  He turned the National Park Service into the paramilitary wing of the Democratic Party.  NPS shut down numerous private facilities because they operated on National Park land.  NPS held a busload of foreign tourists hostage in Yellowstone and patrolled to make sure no tourists were able to sneak out of their hotel to watch Old Faithful.  NPS shut down a parking lot on public land used by a private foundation for a private land attraction.  The One We Were Waiting For even shut down the WWII memorial just because it was on public land, even though it was built with private funds and is usually unmanned, uh I mean un-personned.  The shutdown hurt the red states most BY DESIGN, not by accident.  Remember the Chicago Way of politics:  reward your friends and punish your enemies.  Seeing hypocrisy in the Republicans while lauding the Democrats is like straining at gnats and swallowing camels (your choice of the animal or the cigarette).
