Who was responsible?

To this day, our president and fellow democrats continually claim that the Ted Cruz, Mike Lee and the republicans are responsible for the government shutdown last month.  However, if anyone out there would actually just use their brain and think for themselves and not have others decide for them, they will realize this is another lie by this administration and their minions.   

Remember, Sen. Ted Cruz performed a filibuster, the Congressional rules say he can do, and has been used many times by both parties in the past, to take a stand and live up to the promise he made to those who elected him.  A rare occurrence these days by a politician.   

But, as a result of the "I will not negotiate" stance taken by the president, the government shut down, or should we say some parts of the government.  Did the republicans or Sen. Ted Cruz order the closure of all Federal parks, the war memorial in Washington DC, but allow a immigration demonstration attendant by many illegal immigrations and democratic congressional leaders, but were meant to block our past military heroes from entering.  This and other actions taken by this administration with the intent to adversely affect the public as much as possible that this president indicated he wanted to do the last time this threat of a shutdown was lingering.   

This president and his fellow socialist democrats will do anything to maintain their party in power and that includes anything that will affect the public where they can blame their opposition.  And naturally, the lamestream media falls for this and reports this to the pubic acting as an extension of the democratic publicity machine.   

When and until the citizens of this country use their brains and research what is happening, this administration will get away with their actions to the detriment of our country.  Hopefully, they will awaken before our country is lost.   

After all, this administration is doing their best to give out free stuff to the voters for their support.  But, nothing in this world is free and somebody must pay.  Either the taxpayer with higher taxes or businesses with higher taxes.  This gives the worker less money to purchase items and business must maintain a profit margin to stay in business and have money to pay their workers, but with higher expenses (taxes) they either must raise their prices or cut the work force.  We see this with the threat to raise the minimum wage. This will either force companies with low profit margins to either lay workers off or raise prices and raising prices in a competitive market may result in going out of business and not only does the employer lose, but workers lose their job. 

This administration wants you to believe that all companies, businesses, fast food restaurants are rolling in profit and they should share that with their workers and yet, that is not only the case since some of their profit is in the 1 to 3%.  We might add, that those big bad oil companies have a profit margin of around 5%, but again this administration wants you to believe it is in the 50% bracket.  Again, little research will give you the truth.   

This president ran for office under the idea that his administration was going to be the most transparent administration in history of this country.  Think about that and review all the scandals where we have been lied too continuously up to today.  Fast and Furious, Benghazi, IRS, NSA, Obamacare, reporter James Rosen and the AP scandal.  This administration has tried repeatedly place roadblocks to any investigation on these scandals and has tried to rebuff all Congressional House hearings.  Remember, our congressional members represent us, (at least they are suppose too) and when they are thwarted in their efforts to get at the truth, we are thwarted.  This administration is attacking us the citizen as they try to continue to get government to control us.  Who do you want to make decisions in your life, yourself or government.  If you say government, especially those in this government, then ask yourself, how much actual experience do they have in the real world, how many jobs outside of government have they really had or is their experience from their radical professors in the Ivy league schools?  You decide.  Do you like our constitution and the Bill of Rights where our Declaration of Independence claim they come from God, or do you believe government gives us our rights?  If you believe government, remember again, what government gives you, government can take away.
