SHUTTING DOWN THE GOVERNMENT...

*Granny sez there is them what only use their heads to hold their ears apart! *Why should both houses of Congress CONTINUE TO RECEIVE THEIR PAYCHECKS - WHEN - the "tea party" group shuts down the government, thereby: 1) withholding the paychecks of ?-how many thousand government employees, 2) imposing even further hardships on those who (are truly worthy) would go hungry without assistance, 3) medical care, 4) children who go hungry without school breakfasts/lunches, 5) AND how many other thousands are affected both directly and indirectly. *Are the government employees in the Congressional cafeteria still showing up for work?...if NOT...how on earth does Congress get fed? *Is Medicare shut down as well? *What if Seniors need urgent medical care/surgery/etc.? *IT WOULD SEEM THAT IF THE "TEA PARTY" ADVOCATES HAD THE BEST INTEREST OF THEIR "CONSTITUENTS" AND CITIZENS-IN-GENERAL - THE "TEA PARTY" SHOULD "SHARE THE PAIN" OF "NO PAYDAY" AS WELL AS IMPOSING IT ON OTHERS! *Aren't the "tea party" members of Congress government employees also? *WONDER JUST HOW MANY OF THE "TEA PARTY" WILL BE RE-ELECTED THE NEXT TIME AROUND? Could be they should use their heads for other than keeping their ears apart?
