impacts my job. i work for a chemical company with lots of customers in the US - we have FDA and EPA processes to follow that are affected. anybody else adversely affected personal or professional? i heard there is no guarantee that the 800000 employees will be paid during the down time.

Our government is like a bad police show. The Republicans play the "bad cop" while the Democrats tighten the noose.

World should 'de-Americanise', says China following default fears

In China, Xinhua, the official government news agency, said that as American politicians continued to flounder over a deal to break the impasse, “it is perhaps a good time for the befuddled world to start considering building a de-Americanised world”.

Dismemberment, drawn and quartered, interesting the use of archaic terms. The kind of regression that's seen US politics entrenched; redistricting that's resulted in political incest, stunted political growth. Get out more. Your guys need to stay out of their sisters' rooms.

The capitulation draws near. Followed soon by the dismemberment of Boehner.

This shutdown showdown, as CNN are calling it, is getting more delicious by the day. Politics at its best when it holds up a mirror to the people. It's heading for an inevitable anti-climax though, isn't it?

I'm not, but I'm not a teabagger.

If this shutdown wasn't hurting people I know (and ultimately wasting money), it's quite enjoyable to watch the Tea Party eat the Republicans.



I enjoy watching the Republican "leadership" being forced into identifying themselves ideologically. Democrats appear to be comfortable with publicly expressing their progressive/liberal agenda while professional politicians on the "right" are unwilling to commit to their base .There seems to be two sides, the ruling party and an opposition opposed to themselves.

It's who you blame when you're afraid the gravy train might derail.

Tourists mad as hell in Puerto Rico because they can't enter the Spanish Forts and The Rain Forest.Obviously they didn't know that USA laws apply here as well.We are US citizens by law,our soldiers have died in ALL the wars but we are not allowed to vote for the President.Not nice to be war booty and lucky we didn't get get a dictator.And we got crummy politicians I might add that build schemes to steal all the federal funds and to complete all the drug lords families collect food stamps and live better than the working class.
