Why is the administration and their congressional allies making the government slowdown even more painful for you?
The facts:
Our national monuments have never been barricaded before through numerous government shutdowns. Having been behind the scenes during my time within the White House walls, I am sure this was a political calculation that was solely designed to hurt the American people. Barricades cost money to move and install and are completely unnecessary, but they do serve a purpose. They make for wonderful press photos and serve as visual reminders of what you cannot do and where you cannot go. To sum up; insider politicos are spending your money, in a time of fiscal crisis, to buy barricades to keep you away from your monuments.
Even worse, there are national parks across the country which accept NO federal funds, and are maintained by private entities, who are being ordered to shut down to the public. Incredibly, the private operators are being ordered to spend their own money to purchase barriers to keep the public out of their own parks.
Folks, no one wants a government shutdown but I implore you to please be skeptical of media reports of the administration's benevolence in this. They have refused to budge an inch on even the most modest #Obamacare reforms, the President has publicly stated that he "will not negotiate" and Senate Dems have compared their opposition to terrorists.
I simply cannot accept the fact that this is the best we can do. It's not their country, it's ours and we deserve better.

Yes, why is they doing that??? LOL
They are doing it to attempt to try and take the focus off of the train wreck obamacare is proving to be.
Dan Bongino would have been a great representative...I hope he runs again.
