Who’s to blame for the government shutdown?
The GOP has shut down the government for the first time in 17 years in their quest to deny health care to millions. And, yes, we can safely lay the blame for this economic shutdown at the feet of Tea Party Republicans. How do we know for sure? Isn’t this simply more bipartisan bickering? Aren’t both parties really to blame? Well, no. Just listen to what Congressional Tea Partiers said as they campaigned for office.
