Boehner is a agitating B--tch.

I think these ppl are pathetic. There isn't enough going on in the country right now they have to add to it. It's just ridiculous I hope they all get fired and then the government realizes people need to get off unemployment and they cut benefits back to normal and then maybe these stupid ppl in maryland will realize that they are pathetic.

Irony of irony. Overpaid unions are complaining they won't get paid since ultimately they are being paid too much. I guess we can't make this up... but when the going gets tough with federal gubmint employees, organized crime comes out crying. Screw you, unions.

My only comment is that, since we are having all these cuts across the nation. Does it mean all government employees including the president himself will get the cut?

Unions will make this country the 3rd world nation their leaders desire it to be.

Why do the rank and file union members EVER complain about the benefits and salaries of their bosses like they do about the bosses WHO SIGN THEIR PAYCHECKS?

Nobody should lose any sleep over this. They will eventually raise the debt ceiling and go back to spending like drunken sailors in no time.

Since we have to print (counterfeit) the money to pay the debt, which drives up costs of pretty much everything except iPads, I wonder if the unions will be protesting when gas hits $10 a gallon.

Gotta wonder if the USA #1 foam-finger gang will keep refudiatin' gubnit workers once their Social Security checks stop coming in the mail.

I too want spending to be controlled but done in a responsible, well thought out manner. Draconian cuts in gov't spending will have a very negative effect on the very people most dependent on our gov't ..young, elderly, poor etc.. I'm truly tired of the posturing demonstrated by the "party of no".

william beck,

The Democrats controlled all of government for 2 years and had super majorities. They FAILED to produce a budget for 2011 WHILE they had those majorities. Now an adult named Ryan has produced a budget.

Where is the Senate version from the Democrats who STILL CONTROL THE SENATE?
Has Reid offered one? Has he offered anything?

When the children of the Democrat party want to play politics with the lives of the American people, the adults will and have been ELECTED. 87 new ADULTS in the last election. More in the next.

The Government has shut down at least a dozen times since 1980. Except for 1995 did anyone notice, and it was only noticed in 1995 because the Republicans controlled both seats in congress. When Dems shutdown the government it's business as usual and hardly reported by a biased media. If the Government shuts down, seniors won't be dying in the streets, kids can still buy their happy meals, medicare and medicaid will still function, and people on the dole will still get their handouts, including social security checks. NOW, for those who want to visit the Smithsonian, Washington monument, or Lincoln Memorial, I guess you'll have a problem. Maybe you can all join together and sue Obama, or Boehner, or the National Parks Service. I'm sure you can find a Democrat trial lawyer who want's to make a name for himself! Think of the money we'll save by saving the salary and benefits of 800,000 laid off useless government jobs. Maybe the government should shut down for the rest of the year!

The Dems biggest fear is that the Treasury Department will lay off the workers who run the presses and print all the worthless money they need to give to other countries, pork and entitlements! They aren't worried about you and me, because they know the American citizens won't be affected at all. They're worried about themselves! WAKE UP PEOPLE!

Ryan's budget does NOT call for draconian cuts. By 2021, Federal spending will STILL be 20% of GDP...more than under Clinton!

It's time to stop looking to the Federal government for a handout, for parity, for redistribution. Taxes are more responsibly spent at the most local level possible. Ryan's budget shifts much of the current spending to States where it will be more responsive to the voters.

Well, one thing is for sure. Sheeple in America ARE starting to wake up. Looking at the comments couple with these obese protesters who will only go back to stuffing their face with GMO foods,watching BS on TV and making themselves feel more important than they are. The American people need to be slapped in the face for their ignorance and arrogance. Their ignorance for not heeding the warnings told to you years ago. STOP blaming the goverment for your collective failure to do your part as Americans!!!

Dear Citizens,

It's about time these overpaid government workers go away!

Citizens - do you know how many people work at the Social Security complex on the west side of town -- O about 10 percent.

If the union has time to walk the picket line and file lawsuits it just goes to show that they have too much time on their hands.

the liberals in this country want to SPEND - SPEND - SPEND!!!

IT MUST STOP!!!

The Sunpaper for its liberal bias shows it true colors regularly by promoting a state government that give driver's licenses and college discounts to illegals.

When is the Sunpaper going to speak up against Harry Reid and their dooms day predictions that the conservatives are going to take entitlements away.

Dopes the Sunpaper want our country to be an entitlement state???

Come on Sunpaper editors get off your collective liberal backsides and stand up for fiscal responsibility.

Think about it Citizens.

promoting a state government that give driver's licenses and college discounts to illegals.

Which in English means “promoting programs for people I don’t like”.
