shutting down the governement

Budget talks are down to the wire, and the parties can't agree, so perhaps the government will shut down. Well, it won't completely shut down, as much as the Tea Party would like that. Essential services will be maintained, and you can find a list of those in your daily paper. Also, possible cuts being negotiated will not include essential items like keeping soldiers in Afghanistan through a second decade, along with some in Iraq. 
Well, it's nice to see our elected officials are serious.
