Blame it on the poor Park Ranger for the shutdown

I'm not surprised this is typically Texas. GOP Congressman Randy Neugebauer initiated an verbal exchange with a Park Ranger doing her job. I assume she was controlling pedestrian traffic entering a memorial. Even if she was ordered to deny access, she was still doing her job. She should be praised for that because the Congressman berating her sure wasn't doing his job. Why was he outside enjoying the October sun when he should have been in session getting the budget passed and ending this stalemate. No, he would rather cause hatred and bedlam for the sake of bringing down a President and showing off his racial outrage to Obama. Ok, maybe, I'm stretching with the racial comment, but again from Texas, I will not be surprised.
A big hearty thanks to a bystander that got into the face of the Congressman for belittling the young woman Park Ranger. Oh, how proud Congressman Neugebauer must be as an American saying, the Park Ranger should be ashamed. Of what, doing her job? The young woman stood her ground and said, "I'm not ashamed...". Great response. I'd vote for her into Congress.
When God gave brains and a heart to men and woman, Congressman Neugebauer must have been absent. Congressman Neugebauer is a poor example of what it means to be an American.

I never said that I liked President Obama's policies and more importantly the decision to close open air memorials was nothing more than spite and to also to add more anger to the citizens of this county , in previous shutdowns these memorials were not closed off, I do not cherry pick anything, I just believe that it takes two to tango, it takes two argue, and two to fight, whether one side is being stubborn or obstinate in their beliefs and the other side is just trying to be tenacious and resolute in the their beliefs we will not know until the final outcome. I don't know anything about this Congressman Randy Neugebaur, so I am reluctant to start criticizing him for his actions , you imply that I should have known of his previous antics with other government employee's, which I don't, so you sir are full of BS and bluster.

I have often posted that I am a democrat but that I haven't voted a straight ticket since I don't now when, that being said, I did not vote for Obama the first time around, but his policies and wasted efforts on behalf of his party concerns rather than the people who voted for him made him a big disappointment to me, his second term is an even bigger disappointment what with the lies and deceitful ways of his party's leaders it didn't leave much to appreciate, if being a true democrat means believing everything that the party leader say is true with out question then I guess I am not a true democrat, as for the negativity, what is there to be positive about, as I said previously my wife's health ins. is going up to $4500 more a year, now that's what the Ins. said in the letter and they give the cause as the new regulations contained in the Affordable Care Act and did I mention that we are on a fixed income, my health provider hasn't told me yet what my new rates will be but I am already in the hole for $4500.00 just for my wife, btw, I don't qualify for any grants or subsidies, and that is just 1 item that caused me to be no longer a Obama voter, there are others ,just review my previous posts.

During the shutdowns of 95-96, the national parks and monuments shuttered their doors just as they have during the current shutdown. "Other impacts included: the closure of 368 National Park sites resulted in the loss of some seven million visitors" Source Now you know that your just wrong , plain and simple, the various DC memorials were open during that shut down as were the National Parks, here in Philadelphia , the colonial parks and memorials were open, there were not any paid tour guides , must of these sites were open air back then, but since 9/11 they are now enclosed because of any possible threats, I had visited Valley Forge and that was open, of course that was and still is mostly an open air site, now they have closed off the paths to various camp sites, .

Once again, we can agree to disagree. Please notify me of any reputable source that proves your point and not just "well, I know my point is true."
