I remember the republican side who would rather have the government shut down than do their jobs, and I'm wondering why you think compromise- true compromise and not just your little right wing heart getting everything it wants- will be remotely possible now that those same people have even more power.
Obama threatened to shut down government too.....but you conveniently forget that. He made his threats and ultimatums just like everyone else. Reid shut down the republicans in the Senate by not letting their amendments be voted on. Whats worse is the douchebag started to shut down the amendments of the democrats too. Typically 2% of amendments come the majority leader....but towards the end...30% of the amendments were coming from Reid. The asshole began to monopolize power in the senate. Good riddance to him.

This is exactly why you're only worth the occasional insult.
Kudos for adding content to this threat(I'm being sarcastic if your too dumb to figure that out).
