Government Shutdown?

The clock is still ticking. In T-5 hours the government will either come up with a solution and figure out the budget or the government will simply shutdown. This is quite unfortunate not only for all of the paychecks that elected officials and soldiers won't be receiving temporarily, but it simply means that we failed. Yes, that's right we. We are the ones of endorsed these people, we are the ones who elected them, and they are the ones who cannot get things done. While I would like to point the finger at The President, again, we elected him. I think is simply distasteful to insult the man who runs your country, however, this guy needs to go. What on earth were people thinking electing him in the first place?
Back to the budget...It's time for Congress to defund Planned Parenthood and NPR. These things should be funded privately. I actually tend to think that Planned Parenthood for the most part can be a great resource for not just women, but men as well. What I don't like is that underneath it all we are paying for other peoples "decisions."
