"We aren't going to be disrespected. We have to get something out of this. And I don't know what that even is."—Republican US Representative from Indiana Marlin Stutzman, on what Republicans are hoping to accomplish with this shutdown.
I guess that about sums it up.
If you happen to be worried about where your next paycheck is coming from or how you're going to feed your kids, please understand that the Republicans' ego is on the line here.
I say once more: My contempt for this shit cannot be measured on a scale fathomable by human intellect.
