Conservatives have found their rally point in the midst of a losing battle over the ongoing government shutdown. With events breaking in directions any Republican aware of public opinion knows are suboptimal,
right-leaning Americans have rallied around the seemingly petty and vindictive closure of the World War II Memorial to visiting octogenarian veterans.The cruelty of this maneuver is reminiscent of the sequester fight where the White House was closed to visitors by choice and emails from government staffers revealed that they were directed to ensure that mandatory budget cuts are keenly felt by average Americans.
and what part of that was not true, they leap on a grain of salt if they think they can attach Pres.'s name to it. as to cruelty to close a monument seems to have more juice then Americans they are ruining the lives of by this juvenile taking of the marbles and going home, see again where their loyalty lies not with you or me, and most assuredly not with WWII vets.
But as the veterans of the most terrible war ever fought stormed what will hopefully be their last barricade on Tuesday, and Republicans rallied to their sides, conservatives may have missed the bigger picture.
In some Republicans’ eagerness to ascribe malicious motives to President Barack Obama, they failed to recognize the more powerful message the WWII Memorial closure has sent average Americans: this is just how government operates.
acting like you care if seniors can visit the memorial pales in the face of trying to deny them everything else. no longer who's zoomi' who, we know it's them zoomin' you. recognize.
