All of the fuckers are responsible, but guess what? Many of them are just doing what their constituents voted for. The tea party people were voted into office by those who wanted TP ideals. The Dems likewise. If you don't like the results you'll have to change government to get rid of checks & balances.
"How about this?"
More like "defund Obamacare in spite of the vote-spoken desires of the American people or we're shutting everything down."
They've done this "WE'RE GONNA SHUT IT DOWN" shit three fucking times now, and the only reason they are actually doing it this time is because this time the democrats realized that the Geriatrics On Parade aren't going to extend the courtesy of returning the favor on compromising just because the democrats work with them.
You don't say the person holding the gun at the other person was just as responsible for the outcome as the guy who was having the gun pointed at him was. Especially not if the guy had the gun instead turned and shot everyone else in the room. Maybe the democrats have SOME kind of part in this, except that the guy with the gun has threatened to shoot them all before if his demands weren't met.
Maybe now the "police," in this case the American people, AKA the voters, will do something about this gunman, seeing as he has now opened fire.
