4 funny video clips from Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel on the government shutdown, funny political memes to keep you laughing through Congressional Stupid.
From Denny: Figured I could take the last week off from posting as we all knew Congress was hell bent on Stupid and the late night jokes would start flowing like milk and honey in the promised land. Is it any wonder that Congress only enjoys a 10 percent approval rating? And that number is "down" from 17 percent a few months ago.
Who are those people who approve of Congress anyway? Seems like fellow journalist and NBC News Political Director, Chuck Todd, has a bead on that approving crowd: they are all friends and relatives of Congress. He's probably right. Add a few lobbyists to the numbers and it's an accurate count of those who approve of crooks and insensitive louts running our government into the ground - all at the expense of the struggling middle class. Kudos go to the Democrats and the President for standing firm against childish politicians who are emotionally stuck in 7th grade. "Whaaaa! Give us our way or we burn down the House, the White House and the country! Whaaa!"
My post from 2011 when the Tea Party and the Republicans last threatened a government shutdown is quite popular tonight and a second post here. And the cartoon embed codes are still working too, yay! Fortunately, the two sides finally got their act together and averted a shutdown at the 11th hour. Fast forward to 2013 and the Same Stink is wafting in the national air: the Republicans have just blasted America with their political diarrhea.
Check out this year's late night jokes and video clips about the government shutdown and Syria. At the rate the Republicans are going this government shutdown temper tantrum is going to become an annual tradition - and we all know how addicted the Republicans are to "tradition."
Express your view of the government shutdown with the rest of frustrated America. More shirt and sweatshirt styles available for men and women. Come see!
