This is the best response I have seen to all the false equivalency and twisting of the truth, about who is causing this Shutdown and prospective Default of our Debt. In my opinion it captures the utter insanity of the Republican/ Tea Party so called 'negotiating' position. And most significantly, Who Will Carry The Can and be blamed for the devastation and havoc and misery caused in human lives in the coming elections and generations to come.
The Republicans have descended into the Party that believes because its donors are the richest men in the world that their FIAT can be politically imposed without any CONSEQUENCES on them. They CARE NOT OF THE CONSEQUENCES ON THE 99%; they are being 'disciplined.'
John Boehner and Ted Cruz are acting like henchmen they are for the Mob Bosses:
.
"Shall we just break your fingers? Or would you prefer your toes? Or your legs? Comm on, we gotta break something to make the Koch/Exxon cartel happy. We just need a compromise here. Don't you see how fair we are being in giving you a choice?
.
Tweet it, Facebook it, spread it far and wide.
DO NOT NEGOTIATE WITH TERRORISTS!
Democrats and Sane Republicans, do not 'compromise' with this Insanity!
Expose them for the rabid TRAITORS to the American People and American Democracy that they are.
NO CONCESSIONS!
