How do you know you’re losing the argument in American Politics. Easy. Sarah Palin appears by your side. The GOP has a 21% approval rating and a 74% disapproval rating (and counting). Nicely done Tea Party.

The “Shutdown Showdown” (or whatever your news producer is calling it) is not a fight between the GOP and President Obama. It is a fight between the Republican pragmatists and the Republican ideologues.
Tonight I featured the legendary garage punk band Mudhoney on my radio program, the Fuzz Factory (http://fuzzfactoryblog.wordpress.com). One of the Mudhoney songs I played was a new song called Douchebags On Parade. I dedicated it to the GOP, who continue to grandstand while positioned in a circular firing squad. Almost all politicians act like douchebags on parade on a regular basis. However, today, on day three of the 2013 government shutdown, the douchebaggery was kicking on all cyliners. Specifically I am referring to the ignorant and unaware grandstanding that happened at the World War II memorial today. Yeah, this really happened.
HOW DARE YOU ENFORCE THE SHUTDOWN I VOTED FOR!
