Obama: Too Many Americans Blame Both Parties for Shutdown

It's bizarre -- so many Americans not in the media think that when two parties have an unresolvable disagreement, both share fault (or credit) for sticking to their guns to and refusing to negotiate.

Of course, in this case, only one side is refusing to negotiate.

Did you know this? In the days before the shutdown, Obama kept calling Boehner to reach out to him.... to tell him he wouldn't negotiate.

President Barack Obama repeatedly complained on Thursday that the public took a skeptical attitude toward his decision to shutdown the government rather than agree to the GOP’s Obamacare reform proposals.

According to the president, too many Americans believe “both sides are just squabbling” and “neither side is behaving properly.”

All he does is complain. He's so femmy.

No Drama Obama, huh? Yeah.

Nick Gillespie of Reason answers Obama and his acolytes, starting with the headline:

There Are Those Who Say Lord Obama Has No Responsibility for Gov't Shutdown

Meanwhile, another show in the #ShutdownTheater National Revue has been closed -- by which I mean the Air Force/Navy game is back on.

Air Force will play Saturday at Navy as a $230,000 gift will cover the team’s expenses and avert a possible cancellation of the football rivalry game resulting from the government shutdown.

Navy’s official website announced the news that the game would be played, saying approval was handed down from the Department of Defense to play the sold-out game.
