Shutdown?

Well, the government shutdown bug is alive and well. It looked like it had died out in the 1990's but no bad idea ever really goes away, I guess. This one has been revived by the same kind of folks who were doing them before, only these characters are more thoroughly nasty than the Gingrich crew.

I don't know what's going to happen, but I do know that every significant financial reversal in my life, except my divorce, has involved Republicans!
