The part I've mentioned, you know, the part that led to the shutdown, is the truth. What has transpired since the shutdown is pure political posturing by both sides.I like facts.
[/QUOTE]What happened leading up to the shutdown is that the dems agreed to spending cuts the repubs insisted on. In return, the repubs gave up nothing and shut down the govt anyway.
Then you wonder why the dems will no longer negotiate with the repubs.[/QUOTE]If you disregard a mere $240 billion difference, that would be correct.
