Reactions to Government Shutdown & ACA

#1 QUOTE OF THE DAY: "The threats may continue, but they are not working. And they will never work. Because this is a democracy. And in a democracy, hostage tactics are the last resort for those who can’t otherwise win their fights through elections, can’t win their fights in Congress, can’t win their fights for the presidency, and can’t win their fights in Courts. For this right-wing minority, hostage-taking is all they have left. A last gasp of those who cannot cope with the realities of our democracy." - Elizabeth Warren, U.S. Senator for Massachusetts (D) YGG! 2TU!

#2 MEME OF THE DAY: Does anybody remember Little Miss Rich Girl 'Veruca Salt' from the original 'Willie Wonka & The Chocolate Factory' movie starring Gene Wilder? She was the girl who demanded that her father make all of his employees work non-stop day and night opening Wonka bars until they found her a golden ticket. And, she wanted her father to buy everything she saw when they got inside the chocolate factory. Sound familiar? Well, 2TU to whoever put this one together! It's absolutely priceless! LOL! #theeverlastinggobstopper

#3 VIDEO OF THE DAY: Jimmy Kimmel on Obamacare vs. The Affordable Care Act - Why is it that some Americans don't seem to know that the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and 'Obamacare' (which is actually a nickname) are the same thing? OMG! Are you serious? What rock are these people living under? This little experiment was absolutely unbelieveable! SMH...

#4 HEADLINE OF THE DAY: Former President Teddy Roosevelt once said, 'When you've come to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on.' So, let's stay the course and not be swayed folks. This government shutdown that the Rethuglicans have forced upon us just might come back to bite them on the butt real soon, so stay tuned. Continue to keep hope alive because God's got it under control! 2TU!
