Shut the Government Down

Have to leave for a field trip to Boston by 6 am. Just time for a thought. Let's keep the National Parks open and shut down the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and bring the boys and girls home. Bet you could save a few bucks that you could then apply to the deficit and funding the shortfall in Easton's school budget-let's cut hack politicians in D.C. instead of teachers in Easton. As a student of history, I don't think we've ever been blessed by a group of national "leaders" with less vision of what this country actually needs (except perhaps in the 1850s and look how well that ended!) . Welcome to the Chinese century and a plague on both your houses America (not the Capulets and Montagues, but the House and Senate).
