Readers weighs in on government shutdown

Can the Federal Government shutdown get worse?

Of course it can!

Perhaps the Executive Branch shall decide to shutdown the Interstate Federally funded highways. That could be easily done by having the Federal Emergency Management Agency park their vehicles in strategic locations.

Actually I am outraged at the infantile disrespect to our military and citizens.

Worse yet, I am sure that there are some people employed by the government who have been ordered to do things that they recognize as insults to anyone with intelligence.

It has been said that the Japanese Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto who planned the Pearl Harbor attack remarked afterward, "I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve."

I think the current Federal Government is awakening the citizens of this country. They are beginning to recognize full well the foul stench that comes from a corrupt government!

Congress has not been shut down, but my attempts to telephone Senators Murray and Cantwell were rejected by a "Due to the shutdown" message. Of course, they don't want to hear from their constituents.

The "Occupant" and some members of Congress have made very insulting comments regarding the "Tea Party" groups.

They obviously do not understand that these people are citizens who seek to elect candidates who understand the thinking of those who wrote the original US Constitution, and who shall honor their sacred oaths to protect and defend the Constitution and our Country!

Let us pray that God shall bless Our Country, and help us all defend the wisdom of the original US Constitution!
