    Business as usual, the same as it's been for hundreds of years says the democrat....................




    As Obama becomes the only president in American history to close memorials, evict citizens from their homes, close beaches, rivers, lakes and Mt Rushmore.

    This answer tells me you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

    Do you have any idea how many times the government shut down before, in history or the cause of each of those shut downs?

    You said Obama was the only president to close memorials and parks, did you not? Aside from the fact that Obama himself didn't close down anything, do you have a source for that? Or is that another one of your wild claims?

    Obama didnt shut the govt down, but the WH instructed various agencies to do what they did. Thats not debatable. WH gave the orders

    Have you been to the WW2 monument in DC? I have. its nearly IMPOSSIBLE to close it off. The lincoln memorial is much easier because its a building. The WW2 memorial is out in the open. It makes NO SENSE to barricade it and refuse access. NONE. All they had to say was that national outdoor monuments would not be affected. Theres no threat of VANDALISM, cmon gimme a break.

    So to combat vandalism they sent in workers to barricade a monument that is otherwise unguarded? makes sense
    Eyeballs is your source?

    Pretty specific. Surely there's a source out there other than just your gut feelings. Lol

    Theres no good reason , as i demostrated, to shut down a govt park that is normally, unguarded.

    Yes, the National Parks director testified he was told by the WH to cause as much pain as possible. or is that not good enough?

    yeah but the 96 shutdown, we didnt close national parks and monuments. Not that I remember. Can you check that for me? (im honestly unsure).

    I went to a DOD school and we were in session because they were "essential"

    Memorials were open in 1996. Staffed parks were closed, no additional staff was employed to enforce park closures. There were no riot police or armored vehicles blocking open air memorials.

    I didnt think so, but i was in Germany at the time because my dad was working for NATO.

    Its pretty obvious this was done to inflict most pain possible. And when people complained, point the finger at the EVIL GOP to score political points.
