They been shutting the gummint down like crazy as long as I been in fandom. Thanks Eric. One other innacuracy: I said "Republicans," when it really is only a portion that party that is holding things up. I didn't want to respond before I read the Wikipedia page, and ended up reading the Wonkblog link too. Have to take kids to granddaddy. Ran out of time. On 10/04/13, you wrote: > Thanks, Walter.

I plan on plenty of name-calling, preferably involving incest. Healthcare reform *could* have been the key to U.S. budget stability, and plus I managed to spend a moderate of money on it (kidney stone) when I could least afford it. It's really worth name-calling. Bad names. Later.
