re: #209 Joe Bacon

Brings back memories of Newt”s temper tantrum that shut the government down from Thanksgiving 1995 past New Years 1996. For five weeks we had to come to work and NOT get paid. Kids had NO Christmas that year. Yet we still dealt with teabaggers calling us lazy, shiftless, etc.

Yes, I remember that shutdown quite well. My mom and her co-workers did it in good spirits. I remember hearing about “The Gingrich.” Really fuck people who call federal employees lazy, shiftless, useless, etc. Those cowards wouldn’t say that about military personale who are technically federal government employees too but no they don’t have the balls to do that so they do it on people like you, my mother, and millions of other hard working Americans.
